Default constructing a wooden scaffold

So if I want to put up a scaffold about 5' high, 8' long and 3' deep

Isn't this bureaucracy run amok? Or is it really not "any", and only
applies to scaffolding above some size?


No, Henry - it's bureaucracy attempting to counteract what Darwin said was
natural.
