Passariellos Pizzaria Italian Eatery – Update in Moorestown, NJ

January 2, 2015

I promised to give you guys an update to the post we did a few months back. This is actually a temporary kitchen built on top of a giant platform that we erected out back of the Passariello's restaurant. You can see the original post here: It's not often that Superior Scaffold gets to construct a 16' X 50' platform that ties into the back of the restaurant - and then actually becomes their kitchen while the real one gets an update. But that's exactly what happened here. Using system scaffold, shoring heads, aluminum beams, and plywood we built another platform that would hold...

Iconic PNB letters come down in Philadelphia via helicopter

November 18, 2014

by superiorscaffold

Sunday was a big day in downtown Philadelphia as the skyline was forever changed. The giant PNB letters that adorned the top of the majestic, 28 story, Philadelphia National Bank building for almost a half a century were brought down via helicopter. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EzqgEjetnj8 This isn't the first time crews tried to get the 16' tall, 3000 lb letters down. They attempted it back in August but were only able to remove 3 letters in a four hour span. This time they removed all of the remaining 9 letters in just around 45 minutes. The helicopter landed the letters onto waiting trucks just...

Chichester High School in Boothwyn, PA gets a new temporary press box. That’s right. You heard it right here in the Superior Sentinel. Chichester’s old press box is being replaced. The school that boasts the Eagles football team needed a way to broadcast their home games. The call went out to Superior Scaffold to help them build a temporary structure to get them through the season until a new permanent press box could be built. System scaffold was used because its adaptability with different elevations, especially while sitting directly on top of bleachers. See the pic of crews assembling the scaffolding above. Post...

Shoring Montgomery Mall (North Wales, PA) for an escalator drop

October 17, 2014

by superiorscaffold

Not only was Superior Scaffold called in to provide shoring while new support columns were added - but then we had to shore up the bar joists and steel beams for 150 feet so crews could roll a 10,000 pound escalator into place on the floor above. Pretty darn cool! You can see to the left in this photo where crews cut a hole in the flooring for the new escalator. They were demoing a building and removing an old staircase. That staircase was being replaced with that escalator. This job was done in phases. First step was adding new support columns so...

Bally’s Atlantic City Hotel and Casino cashes in with Superior Scaffold

October 9, 2014

by superiorscaffold

Photos courtesy of Karl Kalbach. Bally’s Casino and Hotel in Atlantic City, turned to Superior Scaffold to get painting crews up to the high end of one of their buildings on the boardwalk. Crews needed to get all the way to the top of the building above world famous Harry's Oyster Bar and Sea Food restaurant to finish painting and refinishing, but their high reach couldn’t get them there. Superior erected a system scaffold around and in between the buildings and over the roof and since crews couldn’t tie in anywhere on the building, diagonal bracing was used throughout to keep everything leaning...

Bell Telephone, Verizon Building getting a facelift – Overhead Protection

October 7, 2014

by superiorscaffold

The old Bell Telephone building at 1631 Arch St. in downtown Philadelphia is getting a facelift. Unlike the normal facelift, where you book an appointment with the doctor and they set a time and place for the procedure to take place. And in this day and age you'd better get plenty of recommendations or you might end up like this...

Safety is our number one priority

October 2, 2014

by superiorscaffold

It's true. I was going through some recent pics of some posts (say that 10 times) and I noticed that they all had one thing in common. Can you see it? I would hope it was pretty darn obvious. Unfortunately, in this day and age with all of the social media, texts, cell phones, and constant distractions, the bright red frames weren't enough to get people's attention. We had to design an even brighter attention getter to help people look up. And unless you were absolutely blasted on Boone's Farm or stumbling from a Ray Rice smash to the head you should...
