Ensure the foundation and base of the scaffolding are secure and check that the height is within safe dimensions. Inspect the platforms, bracing, tubes, and standards for proper installation and capture any defects. Check the load capacity and access points for the scaffolding. Finally, update the scaffolding tag and capture a photo
