Palo Verde provides the following response: At Palo Verde when we use scaffolding that has the tube and knuckle design we have special deep socket wrenches with the socket permanently affixed to the handle. This also has a hammer / mallet on the back side and a whole in the handle for a lanyard.
I attached an example picture but if that does not come thru here is a link to a website that has a similar product. http://www.buy.com/prod/1-2-drive-ratchets-1-2-dr-scaffold-ratchetw-hammer-and/q/sellerid/30885553/loc/66357/219332281.html [cid:[email protected]]<javascript:largeIMTop('http://ak.buy.com/PI/0/500/219332281.jpg','http://ak.buy.com/PI/0/250/219332281.jpg',0)> ********************************************************************** Seth J.

Sometimes we must use the tube/knuckle though. When this occurs we assemble the scaffold with standard ratchet and knuckle bolts. We have recently toyed with the wedge locks the Canadians use but the timing was not good enough to implement in higher dose rate fields. More work to develop on that one though. Question: Does your station use any unique tools to enhance (reduce time) during standard scaffold construction? Harry L.
