Aluminum Scaffolding Tower: Erection and Inspection
Before the erection of the Aluminum Scaffolding Tower
Before the utilization of Aluminum towers, Scaffolding South Africa makes sure to review their condition. Only qualified persons who have completed a verified training course on the use of aluminum scaffolds within the last three years are part of our inspection team.
Check Resistance of the tower
Aluminum Scaffolding towers should be placed on boards or another rigid packing to present a strong foundation. Reviewing the condition beforehand helps to take the required precautions at the right time
Never Use Broken Equipment
Guardrails and toeboards should be used on all moving Scaffolding towers. Their stability should be reviewed after every move. Operating platforms should be sufficiently and firmly boarded.
Outriggers or stabilizers
Outriggers or stabilizers enhance the productive base dimensions of the Aluminum Scaffolding Tower. These should be provided as soon as the initial lift is finished.
Wind Pressures on the Aluminum Scaffolding Tower
Wind forces a horizontal pressure on the Aluminum Scaffolding Tower. For standard safe functioning conditions, do not raise or use this tower in winds above 17mph.
Another Parallel pressure
Aside from wind pressures, any other horizontal pressures affect Aluminum Scaffolding Tower. For example, forcing a drill creates an equal and opposing force on the Aluminum Scaffolding Tower.
Secured Loading
Commonly speaking, Aluminum Scaffolding Tower can hold the highest pressures. There is an affirm design load capacity (DLC), and the Secure Working Load sustains by the entire Aluminum Scaffolding Tower.
Moving Aluminum Scaffolding Tower
Before moving Aluminum Scaffolding Tower, decrease its length to below 4 meters. Also, check that there are no potential lines or different obstacles above. Unhitch the castors, and outrigger castors. There should be no workers or instruments on the Tower.
