Threaded Rebar Coupler Splice
The taper-threaded mechanical coupler is designed for applications that require the joining of reinforcing bars. The compact design of each coupler ensures suitability for use in confined situations where space is restricted or where the loss of cover must be minimized. Taper-threaded couplers are normally supplied fitted to the end of the threaded bar, requiring only the engagement and tightening of the adjoining bar on site.

Rebar Coupling Sleeve Mechanical Splice
Metal-filled Coupling Sleeve is placed end to end in the metal sleeve with a molten metal filler in the tap hole. The filler material flows between the bars and the sleeve, solidifying in the deformations of the rebar and the internal ribs of the sleeve, forming a mechanical interlock.

Do You Know The Advantages of Rebar Mechanical Splices?
Rebar mechanical splices are used to establish a mechanical connection between two pieces of rebars in concrete construction for joining reinforcing bars. The mechanical splicing system aligns and secures the joined rebar ends in an in-line connection suitable to meet appropriate splice requirements.

The Major Application Of Scaffolding
Have you ever noticed that scaffolding is common used in a construction site? Yes, scaffolding plays an important role in construction sites. In this post, I’ll list three major applications of scaffolding. Let’s begin with the definition of scaffolding. As we know, scaffolding is a temporary structure erected outside a building. The scaffolding system is manufactured from galvanized steel. And it contains many parts: planks, couplers, standards. etc.

What Does Scaffolding Safety Inspections Involve?
Regular inspection and maintenance is the most important aspect of scaffolding safety. Scaffolding safety inspections are carried out during the erection of the scaffolding system. There are many factors that have an impact on the stability of the scaffolding systems: worksite conditions, weather conditions, incidents, and other hazards.

What Are the Applications and Advantages of Aluminum Scaffolding?
Scaffolding is a temporary structure that is used to support construction workers and construction materials. Scaffolds are often used as aluminum scaffold towers and building surfaces to construct or repair works. Whilst the preferred fabrication of scaffold over the years has been steel. But now, many scaffolds are manufactured with Aluminium or galvanized steel. The question that most will consider is why would one utilize Aluminium scaffold over steel, and what are its advantages?

The History of the Ladder
No one really knows when the ladder was invented. However, the earliest evidence of the ladder invented is located in Valencia, Spain. The Spider Caves have a Mesolithic rock painting of a ladder that’s about 10,000 years old. This painting shows two men using a ladder to access a wild honeybee nest, most likely to get honey. The painting shows a flexible ladder that was made up of some kind of grass.

Are Aluminum Ladder Better Than Steel Ladder?
When it comes to ladders, what we discuss mostly is “Is an aluminum ladder better than a steel ladder?” Do you know which one is better? Let’s find the answers. As we can learn from the ladder regulation that metal ladders should make with corrosion-resistant material or protected against corrosion. Aluminum ladders are going to comply with the “corrosion-resistant material” requirement without any additional coating, painting, or galvanization. While steel ladders need to be painted or galvanized to comply with the ladder regulations, which results in increased production, which will adversely affect the lead time of the product.

Safety Net Installation Requirements
Before installation, safety nets must be inspected for damage or defects. Please do not use safety nets that are damaged or have defects. Safety nets must have the manufacturer’s and removable test mesh labels. Do not use safety nets that do not have labels attached. Inspecting safety nets before installation. Before installing the nets, the installer should examine the safety nets on both sides for damage or defects; check the net’s labels (manufacturer’s and removable test mesh) are displayed, current and valid. If the installer finds any damage or defects, the safety net should not be used. If the damage is reparable, the net may be repaired; otherwise, it must be withdrawn from service.

Chinese Company Erect A 10-Story Building With Only 28 Hours!
A China-based manufacturing company has constructed a 10-story steel apartment in the city of Changsha in China within a construction process of just 28 hours and 45 minutes. This company used bolt-together modular units known as the “living building” system. The system uses components that can be fitted into a standard shipping container and then be bolted together at the construction site. The wiring and ductwork are factory-fitted.

Build The Marvels Architecture With Brilliant Shuttering
The Shuttering’s history can be date back to the Roman Era. The arches, domes, and vaults of that period were supported by shuttering formwork built in the form of the final construction. With the increasing requirements of mass construction, shuttering needs to be efficient, modular, replicable, and fast to the mantle and dismantle. And the obvious way to do that was by making them molds in regular geometrical forms. This way shuttering has been one of the drivers of the modern geometric design aesthetic.
