WHAT WE DELIVER

From concept to construction, our engineering team covers every stage of scaffold design, analysis, and site support.

01
Scaffold Design & Engineering
// Core Capability

Designspool delivers complete scaffold design packages for the full spectrum of scaffold types used in industrial and construction environments. Our designs are engineered from first principles, backed by rigorous structural calculations and fully compliant with BS EN 12811 and relevant NASC guidance.

We produce comprehensive design reports including calculations, load plans, and safety notes — providing contractors and clients with everything needed for construction, inspection, and regulatory approval.

3D Modelling & BIM Integration
// Digital Construction

Our BIM and 3D modelling capability allows us to develop fully coordinated scaffold designs that integrate seamlessly with digital construction workflows. Working in Revit and Navisworks, we produce accurate 3D scaffold models used for clash detection, construction sequencing, and visualisation.

3D modelling significantly reduces on-site errors and supports more efficient planning, particularly on complex industrial and petrochemical facilities where space is critical.
