Dutch term or phrase: vlechtsteiger
XXX levert en monteert diverse ondersteuningsconstructies voor de betondekken (aangelegd volgens de wanden-dakmethode). Daarnaast verzorgt XXX de vlechtsteigers en trappen­torens voor de diverse deelgebieden. Bijzonder in het project is het verrollen van de ondersteuningsconstructies. Door de aanschaf van speciale walsrollen is XXX in staat om een moot in minder dan één week om te zetten.

Vlechtsteigers refers to a a specific type of scaffolding. Can't seem to come up with the English equivalent.

Explanation:
Steiger ingezet bij betonvlechtwerk:

http://www.matemco.nl/toepassingen/steigers :

"Met een steiger creëert u een veilige werkplek op elk gewenst niveau. Het Kwiksteigersysteem staat bekend om haar stabiliteit, flexibiliteit en korte montage- en demontagetijd. Door de universele toepasbaarheid van het systeem is de steiger naast zijn functie als gevelsteiger voor tal van doeleinden geschikt, onder andere als metsel-, rol-, vlecht-, renovatie-, ruimte-, stort-, hijs- en doorwerksteiger."

This British site calls it 'reinforcement scaffolding', but I'm not too sure, hence the low confidence level.

"but also to offer with their Allround equipment
supplementary services such as stairway towers, reinforcement scaffolding, rolling work towers and much more besides"

(Btw: ruimtesteiger in the first ref. could well be your videsteiger, hence atrium scaffolding ;-) )

agree  Barend van Zadelhoff: een 'vlechtsteiger' is een steiger die bedoeld is voor het betonvlechten / het is geen eigennaam, merk of een zeer bepaald type steiger / je hebt gewoon een letterlijke/beschrijvende vertaling gegeven en die voldoet hier volgens mij
