This weekly scaffold inspection checklist helps construction teams verify scaffold safety and compliance. It covers access methods, stable footings with base plates and sole boards, bracing, full planking, board condition and security, cleanliness of platforms, vertical standards, correct couplings, guardrails and toe boards for edge and falling-object protection, level ledgers, secure ties, and ladder condition. The checklist ends with a clear pass or repair decision and sign-off fields for contractor, inspector name, and signature. Use it to document findings, record issues, and assign corrective actions to maintain safe, compliant scaffolds on site.
