Scaffold work in Rancho Cordova follows the California Building Code and Cal/OSHA Title 8 requirements.
Rancho Cordova has adopted the California Building Code (CBC) and California Code of Regulations Title 8 for construction safety. Scaffolding taller than 10 feet requires guardrails, toeboards, and a competent person inspection before each shift per Cal/OSHA §1637. Scaffolds in the public right-of-way (sidewalks, streets) require an encroachment permit from the Public Works Department with pedestrian protection such as covered walkways. The Building Division reviews scaffold plans as part of the overall construction permit for larger projects. Contractors must hold a current C-61/D-49 license for scaffold erection. The City of Rancho Cordova Municipal Code Title 16 governs building safety and adopts state standards by reference.
