Layher Allround Scaffolding® the „Original“
Ingenious technology for efficient work
Strong and inexpensive (hot-dip galvanised) steel Allround scaffolding
is primarily used for elaborate and ambitious scaffolding.
The advantage of the aluminium Allround scaffolding, which is
identical in design, is its low weight and its suitability for applications
where appearance is relevant or where steel is not permitted.
Minimal weight yet
high and ideal transfer
of force.
The wedge head and
standard are matched
to ensure central
loading.
Approvals
Allround steel scaffolding
Z-8.22-64 based on EN 12811.

Your benefit
A Save time during assembly and dismantling
thanks to bolt-free connection technology.
A Safe and simple one-man assembly.
A No loose parts.
A Very little material required.
Allround scaffolding uses a
simple, unique and bolt-free
connection technology.
Sliding the wedge head
over the rosette and
inserting the wedge into
the opening immediately
secures the component.
There is still sufficient play
to secure the other end of
the ledger.
A hammer blow to the wedge
transforms the loose connection
into a superbly strong structurally
rigid one. The face of the
wedge head is now precisely
positioned against the standard.
The result of superior
design:
Up to 8 connections can be
made in the structurally ideal
Allround connector on one level
and at various angles. Connections
are provided in standard
dimensions of 50 cm on all
Allround standards. The flat
rosette prevents clogging with
dirt of whatever type.
Ingenious connection
technology:
The four small punched-out
openings in the rosette automatically
centre the ledger at
right angles – the four large
openings allow the angle of
alignment to be selected.
A Maintenance free and always ready
for use.
A Low weight of individual parts.
A Tried and proven range of parts.
A Economic and versatile design that convinces.

Layher Allround Shoring TG 60
The swift and safe way of flexible shoring
Together with Layher Allround equipment,
the TG 60 shoring frames create even more
possibilities.
With TG 60, shoring scaffolding can be built
even faster, higher, stronger and safer.
The TG 60 shoring frames, available in three
sizes, are made of high-tensile steel, reinforced
with two short struts and provided
with Allround rosettes. Each standard of a
TG 60 shoring tower can be subjected to
a load of up to 6 tons.
TG 60 shoring towers can be assembled
at the site either upright or lying on the
ground, for subsequent crane movement.
Fully assembled towers or tower combinations
can be moved quickly and easily using
quick-fit castors.
The shoring towers can be adapted without
problem to any specific factors of the structure,
terrain or configuration dimension of
the formwork supports. The ground plan of
the TG 60 shoring tower results from the
1.09 m wide frames and the Allround ledgers
used, from 1.09 m to 3.07 m.
The TG 60 shoring frame can be expanded
without problem using Allround standard
components. For heavy loads, the shoring
frames can be easily combined using Layher
twin wedge couplers.
The innovative assembly sequence and the
integrated access aid (rungs with 50 cm
spacing) make the assembly of a shoring
tower safer than ever before.
During upright assembly, you are always
protected by all-round side protection –
without any safety equipment.

Your benefit
A With more than 30 % time saving during assembly in comparison with
structures made from individual parts, economic success will come quickly.
A Easy and rapid assembly thanks to lightweight and symmetrical frames with
proven Allround connection technology.
A Optional assembly upright or on the ground. Movement is achieved by
crane or with quick-fit castors.
A Variable bay lengths – simply use ledgers and diagonal braces of
appropriate length to obtain the required bay length.
A Perfect compatible with Allround equipment. TG 60 shoring towers can be
expanded or combined with standard Allround material whenever required.
A Safe assembly thanks to integrated and all-round advance side protection.
A Integrated access aid thanks to conveniently spaced rungs in the TG 60
shoring tower.

Layher Allround Scaffolding®
Economic support scaffolding
made from Allround Scaffolding individual parts
Layher Allround scaffolding can accommodate
all types of high loads and is the
ideal system for all kinds of support scaffolding.
Thanks to its versatility, you can
adapt the scaffolding to the conditions on
site.
Variable spacing for the standards
ensures that the design of the support
scaffolding can be optimally matched
to the existing load and the falsework
system in each case.
Heavy-duty towers made of bundled
standards can carry loads of up to
60 t. Extensive structural strength calculations
and technical user documents are
available.
Allround scaffolding has an efficient solution
to deal with all challenges, regardless
of whether they involve ceiling falsework
at a great height, barrel vaults or round
inner scaffolding. Heavy steel beams can
easily be supported with the help of a top
spindle.
Projections, working platforms and fall
arrest levels can easily be mounted using
existing basic components. Here the
rosette spacing of 50 cm provides the
basis for an extremely versatile scaffolding
system.
Safety and efficiency will work in your
favour.

Layher Allround Scaffolding®
Scaffolding for formworkers and steelfixers
Unimpeded access to the wall and beam
reinforcement is provided without wall
ties. Stability is achieved through simple
support and, if required, by widening the
base.
Suitable bay lengths ensure that access
is provided to all relevant components.
Inner guardrails and brackets create safe
working conditions where there is a large
gap to the wall. The width of the scaffolding
can be adapted to the amount of
space available. The fact that the advance
guard rail is fitted to both sides of the
scaffolding provides a high level of safety
even during erection.
Thanks to the use of pull-resistant pins
to connect the standard joints, the scaffolding
can be moved at any time using
a crane.

Your benefit
A You have various system solutions available to achieve stability,
even without wall ties.
A You can carry out operations in relation to formwork, reinforcing
and concreting using the same scaffolding.
A It is possible to work freely on the Allround system, without an
inner standard at the top level.
A The system can be moved by crane, saving time during assembly
and dismantling.

Layher Allround STAR
Façade scaffolding – quick and economical
With the Allround STAR Frame, the advantages
of SpeedyScaf equipment can be
combined with the flexibility of Allround
scaffolding. Facade scaffolding can be
built even faster and even more economically.
The STAR Frame is available in U and O
design.
The innovative guardrailattachment permits
assembly without any tools, where it
is clear even from a distance whether the
guardrail has been secured or not.
The lightweight STAR Frame and the also
lightweight guardrails permit fatigue-free
working and hence faster assembly and
dismantling. What’s more, the risk of
overloading the vehicle is reduced and
even larger quantities of material can be
transported.
The Allround STAR Frame is an open
frame. As a result, decks can be fitted and
removed even when the scaffolding has
been completed. If the scaffolding is not
to be completely decked, the decks can be
moved around as an aid to assembly while
building work is in progress.
The Allround rosettes make the STAR
Frame completely compatible with Allround
equipment. Strengthening and projecting
structures etc. can be assembled
using standard Allround material.

Your benefit
A 24 % time saving during the assembly of facade scaffolding compared
with a facade scaffolding using Allround standards and ledgers.
A 38 % weight saving. This permits fatigue-free working and higher
transport volumes.
A Open frame for fitting and removal of decks at any time, so they can
for example be repositioned to match assembly progress.
A Perfect compatibility with Allround equipment thanks to attached
Allround rosettes.
A Completely tool-free guardrail assembly.

Layher Allround Scaffolding®
Façade scaffolding
made from Allround Scaffolding individual parts
With its superlative adaptability Allround
scaffolding is the obvious choice for very
irregular façades. The advantages of
Allround scaffolding really come to the
fore when the building has projections,
recesses, cantilevers and niches.
With Allround scaffolding all tasks can be
carried out extremely efficiently. Allround
meets many different requirements at the
same time, acting as a work and protective
scaffolding for bricklayers, concrete
workers, carpenters, plumbers, roofers,
plasterers and painters.
Allround scaffolding has been granted
building authority approval as façade
scaffolding by the Deutsches Institut für
Bautechnik under Z-8.22-64. Where the
configuration requirements differ from the
standard assembly, structural strength
verifications are quickly available, thus
ensuring that erection is not delayed.

Your benefit
A The fact that the standard version has been certified and that verifications
of scaffolding stability are available make technical planning easier.
A Depending on requirements, the advance guardrail can be fitted alongside
the scaffolding, on both the outside and the inside, providing maximum
safety at all times.
A All Layher systems are compatible with one another. A large number of
accessories are therefore available for different applications.
A Variable adaptation to working height.
A The Allround system allows scaffolding structures to be erected with decks
only at working levels. This saves a considerable amount of material when
compared to frame scaffolding.

Layher Allround Scaffolding®
Birdcage scaffolds
Birdcage scaffolding is used for applications
that range from small Allround
scaffolding towers to extensive accesses
under ceilings or bridges. They are used
for both stationary and mobile applications.
This means that only a few scaffolding
bays have to be fitted out with
decks. These can be added and removed,
as required, even after the scaffolding has
been completed.
You can accommodate the client’s
requirements and the site situation by
using the appropriate combination of bay
lengths. This will allow you to get around
obstacles.

Your benefit
A Whether rectangular or not, adaptation to the specified contours
of the structure can be achieved at any time thanks to the ingenious
Allround rosette.
A After the base has been levelled, the construction is automatically
squared. No further levelling is required.
A Decks only have to be installed where they are required.
A A huge number of building tasks can be carried out using only a
few standard parts arranged in a changing sequence of new
configurations. An extensive range of accessories is available for
special requirements.
A Complicated adjustments and improvising are no longer required.
This makes for extremely profitable and effective work.

Mobile scaffolding provides a crucial
advantage if work has to be performed
section by section. Wheels – ranging from
castors with different load bearing capability
to rail-guided flanged wheels – are
used on mobile scaffolding designs for
different applications.
The appropriate choise of base width and
ballast leads to lightweight structures.

Your benefit
A Allround modular scaffolding provides the basis for unmatched
economical work to the highest safety standards.
A The finished scaffold can be moved to where it is to be used
without technical aids.
A Optimised use of material and fast assembly enhances

Layher Allround Scaffolding®
Tranches and emergency bridges
Temporary links can be created quickly by
assembling the bridge on one side and
swinging it into position by crane. Access
to the unfinished building over excavations
or an emergency bridge over streams
and rivers only requires standard parts
and steel decks. You determine the width
of the span by deciding on the number
and length of bays.
A free projection at the front is possible if
certain prerequisites are fulfilled.
Large widths of up to 30 m can be spanned
using the Allround bridge support. This
modular lattice system is fully compatible
with Layher Allround equipment thanks to
the attached wedge heads.

Your benefit
A Highly efficient solutions for emergency bridges made
of available standard materials.
A Structural calculations for a wide range of standard
applications are available.
A Easy to assemble because the structure is self-bracing.
A System lengths can be combined to produce the required
width and length.

Further applications
Cable bridges
Flat roof side protection
There are a large number of tasks on
building sites that can be carried out very
quickly with Allround scaffolding. One
such task, which is now occurring more
frequently, is the erection of cable bridges
over access routes.
When working on flat roofs it is essential
to have effective fall protection fixtures in
place. Layher’s flat roof side protection
takes the special design features of flat
roofs into account. You simply have to
adjust it to the fascia and install it around
structures such as chimneys or skylights.
The supports can be lifted one by one to
permit work on the roof surface.

Construction and advertising signs
Structures for advertising signs to meet
different specifications can be assembled
quickly. It is easy to adapt the sign
to the terrain. The structure can be stabilised
using ballast or by installing a base,
depending on site conditions. Either temporary
or permanent fixtures are possible.
System solutions that are well thought
out enhance the appearance of the construction
site or storage area. Speed of
assembly leads to an economic solution
for structures used repeatedly.
25

26
Proctection of the environment
Measures to prevent noise pollution and
the spread of dust are required more and
more often, whether at events or at building
sites in urban areas.
The Layher Protect System is the obvious
choice for this task. It blends in with the
neighbouring façades.
The Protect System even serves to meet
the high requirements stipulated when
removing asbestos.
Allround scaffolding acts as a supporting
structure for all these applications.

Layher Allround Scaffolding®
Storage and transport
Layher pallets save on labour and costs
for storage, transport, assembly and
inventory control. All pallet types have
been developed on the basis of practical
experience. Loaded pallets can be moved
using a crane or a fork-lift truck. They can
be stacked on top of each other and save
storage and transport space.
All system components can be transported
using scaffolding pallets. Tube pallets
with box inserts are most suitable for
small parts. Empty pallets, stored in the
base frame with pallet posts, only require
a very small amount of space.
