SCAFFOLDING
Morgen's Winter Enclosure Keeps Masons' Production High Even in Cold Weather
The problems of masonry construction during freezing weather are easily overcome by using the enclosure system designed to work with Morgen Adjustable Scaffolding.
A roof support accessory holds standard-size panels of polyethylene and permits draping the sides to make an enclosure that can be heated. The enclosure, heaters, masons, material and laborers are elevated as the wall progresses.
DECIDING FACTOR
D. K. Overmeyer Co. bought the Morgen Scaffolding shown above for a warehouse job because Morgen's enclosure system would let him work through the winter.
You enclose only the area in which your masons are working, assembling and covering the enclosure at ground level. Because it is never dismantled until the wall is completed, the Morgen enclosure eliminates the dangers of handling heaters and canvas on elevated scaffolding.
INCREASES PRODUCTION 20-30%
Because Morgen Adjustable Scaffolding keeps the mason working constantly at his most productive level eliminating stooping and reaching it increases masonry production 20 to 30%. Some contractors report it let them finish one, two and three weeks ahead of schedule.
