There are several different materials that can be used to provide safe and secure scaffolding as a temporary support during construction or maintenance work; the main ones are timber, steel and aluminium.
Steel is one of the strongest and sturdiest materials for scaffolding, providing a safe and steady platform for worker.
Steel Scaffolding can withstand the load and pressure that scaffolding must undergo with the weight of workers and equipment as well as the forces it may feel from strong winds, heavy rains, and even earthquakes.
It stands firm and robust against it all which means that there is less worry about scaffolding falling apart or becoming loose and putting workers or passers-by in danger.
Available in different sizes and designs
One of the benefits of these scaffolds is their different designs and sizes. Unlike timber scaffolds, these scaffolds can be assembled to great heights. You can also assemble these scaffolds in single and double scaffolds depending on the weight of your construction materials.
Higher carrying capacity
Steel scaffolds especially tubular scaffolds are easy to carry to different construction sites. The scaffolds can also be carried in large amounts as they are easy to pack on a truck.
Steel scaffolding is durable
Steel scaffolds are likely to have a longer lifespan. Steel is highly durable and can hold out against tough weather including heavy rain, storms and snow which makes it a more sustainable choice of scaffolding material. In fact, steel scaffolds are ranked as the most durable type of scaffolds.
Steel Scaffolding is better for bigger projects
Unlike timber, steel scaffolding can be built to great heights which means that it enables us to carry out work for bigger construction projects without any limitations.
It can also be used for single and double scaffolds depending on the weight of your construction materials.
Steel scaffolding is more environmentally friendly
One of the less obvious advantages of using steel scaffolding is that it is an environmentally friendly material, especially thanks to its sustainability.
Whereas, timber is a direct result of deforestation, the steel industry uses primary energy sparingly, saves non-renewable sources and limits the waste stream.
We are proud to say that we are a steel using scaffolding company as it enables us to deliver efficient, environmentally-friendly and, most importantly, safe scaffolding on jobs of all sizes.
