Scaffolding
is a temporary platform, either supported from below or suspended from
above, on which workers stand when performing tasks at heights above the
ground. Construction jobs may require several kinds of scaffold to
permit easy working procedures. Steel Scaffold may range from individual
planks placed on structural members of the building to involved patent
scaffolding.
Thick steel scaffold planks for platforms that hold heavy loads and
withstand movements. Generally, made of hot dipped, galvanized steel,
which offers long-term corrosion resistance, it won't rot, absorb
moisture, split, splinter, swell, warp or burn, thereby providing
considerable life-cycle cost savings. While weighing less than the
average wood scaffold plank, steel scaffolding is stiffer over any given
span, reducing bounce and providing a more stable platform.
