Scaffold sheeting is a covering that can form part of a project arrangement for a specified screening or protection purpose.
What does this mean for your project?
Sheets can have different properties and intended functions. A covering request should therefore explain more than the word sheet. Describe the activities and what you intend to protect or screen, without assuming technical performance that has not been established for the proposed provision.
Covering needs assessment together with the structure and surroundings. A fully sheeted arrangement is not simply the same scaffold with a decorative surface. Mention proposed sheeting during the enquiry, including relevant building shapes and the exposure of the workplace.
Later banners or temporary screens belong in that discussion too. Users should not introduce such additions independently. If a covering becomes damaged or conditions change, report the situation through the agreed route and have the next step assessed rather than attempting an improvised alteration.

thing.
Does sheeting always create a waterproof workplace?
That does not follow from the name. Purpose, properties and interfaces need assessment for the project.
Can a banner be attached to the scaffold?
Not without assessment and agreement. An outside attachment may change the situation previously considered by the provider.
