1 For a longer platform:
 Generally, the C-stirrups and personnel lifting hoists are positioned at the end of the platform. Considering the criteria of the EN 1808 standard, the maximum length of the suspended scaffolding is 12 metres. To increase the length of the suspended platform, it is necessary to use C-stirrups. Their use allows a length of up to 16 metres.

 3 For a platform with adjustable angle section:
Certain buildings have jagged facades or curves that prevent the use of a straight suspended platform. To access the facade, it is recommended to use adjustable angle sections that connect two platform elements. In this case, the use of a C-stirrup is mandatory to ensure the proper stability of the assembly.

4 To simplify the positioning of suspension beams:
When the flat roof of a building is cluttered up with chimneys or service rooms, it is not always possible to position the suspension beams vertically at the ends of the suspended platform. The C-stirrups are used to position the lifting lines more freely.

5 For complex work sites:
To meet very specific work site constraints, C-stirrups can be adapted by our Engineering and Design Department, as done for the work site of the Rion-Antirion bridge in Greece. The C-stirrups are used together with a guidance system, so that the suspended platform remains in constant contact with the inclined wall of the bridge pier.
