The biggest difference  between scaffolding steel support and wooden support is on using different materials, steel support generally is tilted connected component, the most common is chevron and cross, in the shape of cross section forms can be steel, H section steel, Angle steel, etc., is used to improve the stability of the structure.

It is said that the bar is generally used to refer to the round steel of the purlin purline, which is to say that it is the thick steel bar, which is also to enhance the stability of purline so that the purline cannot be destabilized easily under certain external forces. The section form of purline is generally H shaped steel, c-shaped, z-shaped, etc., which is used to reduce the span of the cabin panel and fix the roof panel.

Scaffolding steel prop is made of steel as a supporting member, which can be used to bear the structural support of the larger load, or the permanent prop is relatively high. The wooden prop is part of the steel parts used as supporting members, in some cases, the main force components are supported by steel, secondary or auxiliary force parts are supported by timber. Take the advantage of lumber and steel respectively, namely convenient construction and save cost.

A wooden prop is made of wood as a supporting structure, usually used for force and relatively less load structure; Easy to raw materials, easy to construct, low cost, should be used mostly for support.

The two kinds of prop are different, and the effect is different. Steel support is obviously more affordable than support. The main point is that it is safe to play a supporting role. The wooden prop is not available. It is not good for large buildings. In large construction, steel prop is selected, the stability is strong and the supporting capacity is large. It is the best choice tool for building and subway, so it is also called building steel prop.
