TEMPORARY ACCESS FOR STRUCTURES THAT CANNOT BE REPLACED
Every fixing point, every load path and every square foot of contact matters when the surface underneath is delicate or hundreds of years old.
SPECIFICATIONS AT A GLANCE
How Taurus carries the load without asking the building to carry it too.
Old or Sensitive Buildings Weren't Built to Carry New Scaffold
Heritage and sensitive buildings dictate the terms and conventional access systems are engineered for none of these:
Unsupported Bearing Points
Vaults, suspended floors and unreinforced walls often can't take a standard load path, and shoring or engineering sign-off is needed before a single pole goes up.
Finishes That Can't Be Touched
Lime mortar, soft stone and original joinery don't hold modern fixings, and a single misplaced tie can mean permanent, visible damage.
Extra Weight Where It Should Never Go
Steel access adds dead load to structures already carrying centuries of settlement.
Where It's Used on Heritage and Sensitive Sites
Substrate Protection During Erection and Strike
The polymer joint interface absorbs impact at every connection point, eliminating the metal-on-metal shock of standard steel assembly.
Faster Time On-Site, in Spaces That Can't Stay Disrupted
The wedge-lock connection system enables rapid, repeatable assembly and strike, shortening the window a heritage room or high-end venue is out of use.
Predictable Quality Control on Every Deployment.
Taurus operates as a closed 25-component system with defined standard operating procedures.
One System, Scalable to Over 90 Feet
A multi-length modular system rated up to 91.8 ft (28m), sized to the job rather than requiring a different product for a different scale of structure.
Heritage Structures & Sensitive Interiors Engineering Factors
1. Joint Impact Rating
Structural-polymer node interface, tested against metal-on-metal steel connections. Reduces transmitted shock at the point of assembly and strike.
2. Component Weight
6.6 kN (1,488 lbs / 675 kg) certified bay rating under AS/NZS 1576.1, at approximately 50% the mass of comparable steel systems (component weigh-in basis, 30 June 2026).
3. Hardware Control
Closed 25-component system. No field substitution of third-party or mismatched parts.
