29 CFR 1926.451 · Scaffolds, general requirements

29 CFR 1926.451(g)(1)

29 CFR 1926.452 · Rules for each type of scaffold

29 CFR 1926.452(j)(2)

(2) Poles shall be secured to the structure by rigid triangular bracing or equivalent at the bottom, top, and other points as necessary. When the pump jack has to pass bracing already installed, an additional brace shall be installed approximately 4 feet (1.2 m) above the brace to be passed, and shall be left in place until the pump jack has been moved and the original brace reinstalled.

29 CFR 1926.501 · Fall protection in construction
