Description

As part of the High-Level Repointing and Wallhead Consolidation Project, Historic Environment Scotland has a requirement for high level scaffolding at Beauly Priory, Beauly, IV4 7DU. Scaffolding is required around gables and wallhead, internal and external as per design drawings to allow for masonry consolidation works on wallheads and should be Cuplock scaffolding to suit the design plans.

Total Quantity or Scope

The Priory is a traditionally built solid masonry wall. The works are to be carried out on building gables and along length of wallheads between gables. Ground conditions internally are a stone flagged floor with horizontal memorials stones. Conditions are stable but provision should be made to protect all stone surfaces. Externally the ground is grass turf. However, there may be a requirement to provide some additional scaffolding within the priory to increase stability as well as buttresses to external scaffold to also increase stability. This will also ensure the fabric of the existing structure is not compromised. The scaffold must be free standing as no physical ties to the existing structure are permitted.

Renewal Options

There may be an option to extend the contract for an additional 12 months if required.
