construction scaffolding
Temporary exterior structure
Construction scaffolding is the temporary framework of platforms and supports erected around a building during construction, repair, or maintenance work.
It gives workers access to heights and provides surfaces to stand on while working on walls, windows, or roofs.
The structure typically consists of metal poles, wooden planks, and cross-braces: The construction scaffolding went up around the old church last week.
