Do You Know How to Choose The Right Scaffold?

Time:2020/04/30

 

When it comes to scaffolding choosing, it must be confusing for you to choose the right scaffolding. There are many factors to consider before choosing the type and design of scaffolding you require for the next construction project.

 

#1 Scaffolding Manufacturing Materials

As we all know, there are two main types of scaffolding manufacturing materials: steel and aluminum. These two kinds of scaffolding are used for very different purposes. The steel scaffold can carry much more load than the aluminum scaffold. Therefore, the steel scaffold can be built much higher and used for jobs that require materials to be stacked on.

 

The aluminum scaffold is the easiest to work with and the most versatile scaffold. It is lightweight.  Its flexible design suits almost every situation. The aluminum scaffold does not have the load capacity of the steel scaffold, therefore, it cannot be loaded up with materials. It also cannot be built to the same height as steel. The aluminum scaffold is used for things such as single-story homes, roof repairs, or technical jobs that require minimal disturbance such as heritage-listed buildings, or interior work.

 

#2 Mobile Scaffolding or Stationary Scaffolding

Most scaffold is a solid structure built from the ground up and held in place against a wall or other solid structure to stop it swaying, but what if you needed to move it? If you have a job such as gutter repairs or the painting of a high ceiling you may want to be able to move your scaffold-like you would a ladder so that you can move along at your own pace, rather than having someone come back and strip and rebuild every time you need to move.

 

Mobile scaffold towers are great for small jobs that require you to move along from one point to the next. You do, however, need pretty even stable ground to secure to and to be able to move easily.
