Sorry to bother again, I was listening earlier and a call was dispatched for a truck that hit scaffolding and that now the scaffolding was unstable. the Bronx dispatcher sent out a minor technical rescue response to that box, my question is what units go on a minor technical rescue response?

Pittsburgh is three engines, two trucks, a RIT engine they call the "GO team" battalion chief, and second battalion Chief and safety officer and the Mac unit (air truck) on the first alarm

Oh ok. That's usually a hazmat duty, but in a city that huge, that makes a ton of sense!
