Scaffold Type: Two Tier Swing Stage and 45° Corner Swing Stage

Riverside Methodist Hospital was originally founded on June 2, 1892 as the Protestant Hospital. Riverside Methodist Hospital is the largest member hospital in the OhioHealth group. The hospital is not-for-profit hospital and is faith based. Riverside Methodist has several specialty centers and services within the hospital, including Neuroscience and Stroke, Heart and Vascular, Maternity and Women’s Health, Cancer Care, Trauma Center II, Hand and Microvascular, Surgery and Minimally Invasive Surgeries, Orthopedics, Imaging, and Bariatric Surgery.

American Scaffolding, Inc. was selected by Pioneer Cladding and Glazing to design a two tier swing stage and 45° corner swing stage. Challenges included creating a semi rigid connection between the two swing stages. This was quickly overcome by collaborating with Bee Access to design a cable system that allows both stages to have a direct connection but still allowing some independent movement. Other hurdles in the project included building 20 ft. scaffolding towers in order to assemble the swing stage platform over the existing air handling units. American Scaffolding, Inc. would like to thank Bee Access for the great customer service with the design process and Pioneer Cladding and Glazing for allowing American Scaffolding, Inc the opportunity to design and build this unique swing stage application.

Princeton High was established in 1955 and has its first graduating class in 1959. Princeton High School is located in Sharonville, Ohio and is a public, co-educational high school. The current student enrollment at Princeton High School stands at around 1,560 students. Princeton High School Princeton High School is one of few schools in the state of Ohio to offer both an International Baccalaureate (IB) and Advanced Placement (AP).

American Scaffolding, Inc. was selected by Turner/DAG Construction to design a large multi-level dance floor that would that would form fit to the radius wall featured in the new theatres design. A large obstacle to overcome was creating a radius scaffold that would perfectly fit to the theatre’s architectural design. American Scaffolding, Inc was able to obtain such a perfect fit by custom cutting and fitting ¾” plywood to match the radius perfectly. This made a seamless transition between the new theatre and the scaffolding. American Scaffolding, Inc’s attention to detail is very evident in this project all the way down to the easy access stair unit and projected loading platform.

Scaffold Type: Custom Double Wide Swing Stage with Single Wide Mount

Pioneer Cladding and Glazing paired up with American Scaffolding, Inc. to safely and efficiently design a custom swing stage platform. American Scaffolding, Inc. creative staff devised a plan that allows work to be performed on the front face as well as the cut out in the wall.

A double wide swing stage platform allows for a working width of 50” and is ideal for under bridges and building overhangs. For this configuration, a special stirrup with twin hoist mount is used to support the weight of the wider platforms and distribute it across four hoists. In addition, this configuration requires a specialized U-Frame, deck beam, and end guardrail.

Job Type: EIFS Installation

Scaffold Type: Dance Floor Swing Stage

American Scaffolding, Inc. designed and installed a dance floor swing stage that allowed workers to access the exterior wall and roof overhang. The custom designed swing stage had (4) hoist, one in each corner to allow for a smooth transition up the exterior wall. Due to the low structural capacity of the roof overhang the rigging had to be a double stacked beam assembly complete with truss assembly in order to get the outreach required. The completed system allowed for ample storage space for EIFS materials and the extra distance to reach the roof overhang with little effort.

Great American Ball Park is home of the first professional baseball team, the Cincinnati Reds. They have achieved great success since their inception in 1863, including 5 World Series Championships, 10 Pennants, and 15 Playoff Appearances. The reds officially moved to Great American Ball Park in 2003 after a long stay at Cinergy Field (formerly Riverfront Stadium).

American Scaffolding Inc was proud to work alongside Ben Hur Construction in developing and building a customized swing stage that fit perfectly around the light towers. The challenges involved in this project ranged from developing a swing stage that would allow ease of access to the light towers themselves to properly installing the system in the safest and most efficient means possible.
