Pushing and pulling

Suddenly two police officers started pushing and pulling at the scaffolding trying to shake the protester off it.


1) Are 'pushing and pulling' natural in this context?

2) Could I say something other than 'pushing and pulling' that could make it sound more forceful?

3) Is 'at the scaffolding' correct?
