What is scaffolding?
Scaffolding refers to the various brackets in the construction site, and used for workers to operate the vertical and horizontal transport and erection. It is a generic term in construction industry, and it is most used on the construction site in the exterior walls, interior or higher storey where construction can not directly reach. It is mainly for the construction workers to go up and down to work or perimeter security network maintenance and high-altitude mounting member, simply put they can be used as stairs. Usually, the scaffolding formwork production materials are: bamboo, wood, steel or synthetic materials. Some projects also use scaffolding when the template, in addition to widely used in the advertising industry, municipal, transportation, roads and bridges, mining and other sectors.
www.kitsen.com is a leading scaffolding manufacturer specialized in the manufacturing and marketing of scaffolding towers, scaffolding planks, formwork, scaffolding frame, scaffolding prop, mobile scaffolding, etc. The following are the brief introduction and classification of China scaffoldings.
Scaffolding History in China
In China, before 1949 and the early 1950s, the construction scaffolding pole is bamboo or wood material. In the 1960s, people began to promote the steel tubular scaffold. Since the 1980s, China in the development of state-of-the-art, with substantially the multifunctional scaffolding series achievements such as gantry scaffold, cup-lock steel pipe scaffold series, with an annual output reached the scale of tons, and there are a certain number of exports. For a long time, since the erection of the tool and its construction techniques and the use of safety management is in a lagging behind state, resulting in a higher incidence of accidents. For statistical surface: the casualties occurred in the construction system, about 1/3 directly or indirectly related to the erection of the tool and its use.
 Scaffolding Classifications
In China, the now used steel pipe scaffolding materials have steel tubular scaffold, cup-lock steel scaffolding, socket type steel scaffolding, scaffolding gantry, and there is a wide range of scaffolding, hanging pick scaffolding and other pipe materials scaffolding. According to the material of the rod, the scaffolding can be divided into:
First) the single specification steel pipe scaffolding. It is only the steel pipe of one specification, such as the steel tubular scaffold ?48*3.5 welded steel pipes. Second) scaffolding combined by a variety of specifications steel pipes, it is constituted by two or more different specifications of steel pipes, such as gantry scaffolding. Third) steel pipe scaffolding, it is mainly made by steel pipes, supplemented by other steel rod pieces, such as a scaffolding has the channel steel backwater or base, joining plates pick scaffolding.
