Different types of scaffolding and formwork support for different purposes is used for different types of construction projects. But do you know how many types of scaffolding commonly used in construction projects? Below we will show you an answer.

1. Frame scaffolding

A. Merits

1)The geometric dimension of Frame Scaffolding is standardized.

2)Reasonable structure, good mechanical performance, make full use of steel strength, high bearing capacity.

3)During the construction, it is easy to install and disassemble, high efficiency, safe, reliable and economical.

B. Demerits

1)There is no flexibility in frame size. Any change in frame size requires the use of a different type of door frame and its accessories

2)Cross bracing is liable to break at the center hinge.

3)Customized scaffolding planks are heavy.

4)The price is more expensive. 

2. Folding Cuplock Scaffolding

A. Merits:

1)Multi-function, high efficiency, and versatility.

2)Large bearing capacity, safe and reliable.

3)Easy to process, not easy to lose, less maintenance.

4)Easy to manage and transport

B. Demerits：

1)The transverse bar is the fixed bar of several sizes, and the bowl buckle nodes on the vertical bar are set at a spacing of 0.6m so that the frame size is limited.

2)The u-pin is easy to lose.

3)The price is more expensive.

3. Ringlock Scaffolding

Merits:

1)Easy and fast: easy and fast construction, strong mobility, can meet the requirements of a wide range of operations

2)Flexible, safe and reliable：According to different actual needs, the construction of a variety of specifications of multi-row Frame Scaffolding, a variety of perfect safety accessories, provide solid and safe support in the operation.

3)Convenient storage and transportation: small area for disassembly and storage, and facilitate to transfer.

4. Aluminum Alloy Scaffolding

Merits:

1)The parts are made of special aluminum alloy, 75 percent lighter than the traditional steel frame.

2)The high strength of the component connection.

3)Easy and quick installation. Equipped with high strength casters, movable.

4)The integral structure is designed into the building block combination system. Don’t need any installation tools in the whole erection process.
