Compared To General Structure, What’s the Features Does Scaffolding Have?
Scaffolding is a working platform set up to ensure the smooth progress of each construction process. According to the position of the erection, it can be divided into external scaffolding and internal scaffolding. According to the fabricated material, it can be divided into wooden scaffolding, bamboo scaffolding, and metal scaffolding.

What is Ringlock Scaffolding and Why is it so Popular?
Ringlock, like other types of system scaffolding such as Cuplock scaffolding and Kwikstage scaffolding, consists of prefabricated components, each component designed specifically for its intended purpose. Scaffold contractors and construction companies often opt for system scaffolds, mainly due to the speed of installation and ease of adaptation all types can provide.

ANSI vs ASME, What’s the Difference Between Them?
The American National Standards Institute, also abbreviated as ANSI, and the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, also abbreviated as ASME, are both private, non-profit organizations mainly focusing on bringing uniformity in voluntary standards used in the engineering discipline. Although both organizations work on national and global standards, the core difference between the two organizations can be clearly seen in their mission and vision.

How to Use Slip-On Flanges?
The pipe is assembled with other pipe, fittings, and flanges either by welding or threading. There are specific codes describing the permissibility of threading or welding. With welding, you also need to be aware of several options.

On Construction Project, How to Set Good Safety Plan for Concrete Formwork System?
Good safety plans for the formwork system ensure execution of construction project as per established construction practice and avoid undesired events such as failure of formwork and consequent delay in construction and possible loss of life. Commonly, safety shall begin in the planning and management of a project.

How to Achieve Economy in the Cost of Formwork Construction?
The reduction of formwork construction is essential in declining the total cost of the project because it accounts for up to 60% of the entire cost of the concrete structure. Decision made at the design phase can play a crucial role in this regard. New materials, accessories, and prefabricated formwork components may enable designers to achieve their design goals at a lower cost.

6 Factors Affecting Lateral Pressure of Fresh Concrete on Formwork
There are several factors that influence the magnitude of the lateral pressure of fresh concrete on formwork sides. For instance, concrete weight, rate of placement, vibration, the temperature at the time of pouring, chemistry, and slump. Formwork designers need to take these factors into considerations during the design process. The freshly placed concrete behaves temporarily like a fluid, producing a liquid pressure that acts laterally on vertical formed surfaces.

Do You Know How to Install a Slip on Flange?
Slip-On flanges or SO flanges are commonly lower in price than weld-neck flanges, and to this effect are a popular choice for our customers. However, customers should bear in mind that this initial cost saving may be diminished by the additional cost of the two fillet welds required for proper installation. Moreover, weld-neck flanges have a higher life expectancy than slip-on flanges under duress.

Lap Joint Flange VS. Threaded Flange
Lap Joint Flanges are primarily installed with lap joint stubs, the combined initial cost of which is approximately 1/3 higher than that of comparable weld neck flanges. Their pressure holding ability is little, if any, better than that of a slip-on flange and their fatigue life is only 1/10 that of welding neck flanges.

Welding Neck Flanges VS. Slip-On Flanges
Welding Neck Flanges (Weld neck Flanges) are distinguished from others by their long tapered hub and gentle transition of thickness in the region of the butt weld joining them to the pipe. The long tapered hub provides an important reinforcement of the flange from the standpoint of strength and resistance to dishing.

Socket Weld Flanges VS. Blind Flanges
Socket Weld Flanges are available for use on small-size high-pressure piping. Their initial cost is about 10% higher than that of slip-on flanges. When provided with an internal weld, their static strength is equal to that of double-welded slip-on flanges while their fatigue strength is 50% greater. Smoothbore conditions are possible by grinding the internal weld, unlike with slip-on flanges which require that the flange face be beveled and re-faced after welding. The internally welded socket type flange is becoming increasingly popular in the chemical process piping industry.

Pipe Fittings & Flanges: How to Install a Slip on Flange?
Slip-on flanges usually “slip” over a pipe and are welded in place. This allows the flanges to swivel freely to easily align bolt holes prior to installing and welding in place. Flanges are most often used to connect pipes that have diameters of more than 2 inches. The flange’s joint consists of two matching disks of metal, separated by a gasket, that are bolted together to achieve a secure seal with the gasket material.
