2 Scaffold Trolley systems at CHOP Buerger Center for Advanced Pediatric Care

Superior Scaffold designed two scaffold trolley systems to help D.M. Sabia place giant stones on the side of the facade for the CHOP Buerger Center for Advanced Pediatric Care.

Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, the oldest and top ranked children’s hospital in the United States, called Superior Scaffold to first come out and scaffold in a stairwell for removal of lights and mechanicals in a research center building on their new campus. The hospital, located next to the University of Pennsylvania, then called Superior to return to the stairwell to see if they could adapt scaffolding, already in place, to provide shoring so a portion of the 8” concrete ceiling slab could be cut out and removed.  Estimator and scaffolding expert, Pat McAndrew, took one look at the job and said, “no...
