Improving Sidewalk Shed Safety Through Better Design !!!
As part of the SAFE Scaffold & Shed Initiative, the Buildings Department, in partnership with the Department of Design and Construction and the Department of Citywide Administrative Services, will test a design prototype of a new sidewalk shed engineered to improve pedestrian safety, increase natural light on the sidewalk, and improve the streetscape around construction sites. The Buildings Department is studying the need for additional safety enhancements, including securing sheds to the sidewalk in certain cases for added stability and enhancing the required wind-load calculations for shed installation. A sidewalk shed is a temporary bridge-like structure built over a sidewalk usually by Sidewalkshed.com to protect pedestrians during construction on or near a building facade. Due to the construction boom and the mandatory facade-maintenance requirements, there are approximately 4,500 sidewalk sheds installed citywide and SidewalkBridges.com Adheres to these stricked standards
