The Stand Out Newsletter came out a few days ago, with news of an alert published by The Institute of Structural Engineers.

Stand Out summarise:

“The alert is aimed at those who commission, buy or licence temporary stages and structures. It has been issued in light of recent collapses of temporary stage structures in the USA and in Europe, which have resulted in fatalities and numerous injuries.”

Thanks to Stand Out Magazine for making us aware.
