Weathering the Storm. Scaffolding 600 N. Campus Dr., Rowan University

This giant facade restoration and coping replacement job at 600 N.

Superior’s emergency scaffold services at Cooper Medical School, Camden, NJ

The challenge here was that all of the auditorium seats had been placed into their permanent locations prior to fixing the lighting issues so Superior designed rolling scaffold to access and repair the malfunctioning lights - and to work around the seating.     "Superior Scaffold and our emergency services team quickly assessed the problem and quickly came up with a mighty fine solution,” said estimator, Pat McAndrew. Rowan University and Cooper University Hospital have embarked on a unique...
