Scaffolding has been used for over 5,000 years as an aid to construction and maintenance and was first mentioned by the Chinese and Egyptians. As such, scaffolding has played an important role in the progress of mankind. Bamboo has long been one of the most basic elements used in scaffolding and has been called the "grass of building Asia". However, as time has progressed, better quality, safer and more versatile materials and designs for scaffolding have emerged. The complexity and aesthetics of design and the sheer scale of modern projects require safer and more versatile scaffolding that can support work at height while ensuring the safety of workers. There are several different scaffolding forms in terms of their shape and structure such as trestle scaffolding, steel scaffolding, patented scaffolding, cantilever scaffolding, suspended scaffolding, single scaffolding, and double scaffolding. These forms are based on the nature of the work and the type of raw material used

ZHONGHONG - Industry experts give important tips on buying scaffolding to ensure you get the right equipment for the job, tick all the safety boxes and don't encounter any nasty surprises. First of all, in order to choose the most suitable model, you should bear in mind the intended use. Buying custom-made mobile scaffolding is the basis for precise and highly professional work. The first thing to do is to determine the maximum working height you need: there are many sizes and dimensions of scaffolding available, from the smallest scaffolding normally used for painting moderately high walls, to mobile towers for working on large buildings and at considerable heights. There are also handy scaffold risers on the market designed to be mounted on top to reach higher heights: they are a good option, especially for those who need to work at different heights but do not want to buy mobile access towers, which are certainly more cumbersome and definitely more expensive. Secondly, you must

Frame scaffolding is one of the most common types of scaffolding used on construction sites around the world. Frame scaffolds are usually made from round tubes and come in a variety of different configurations, from sections containing ladders and walk-through entrances to fully walk-through sections and ladder-like sections. A typical method of erecting frame scaffolding is to use two sections of scaffolding frame with two crossed sections of support bars arranged in a square pattern. The sections of the frame scaffold not only provide a place for workers to work, but the sections also act as ladders, allowing workers to reach the required working height. The ropes suspended from the uppermost part of the scaffold provide a means for workers to lift materials to the working height. Sometimes an electric hoist is used to help lift materials when handling heavy materials such as concrete blocks. It is not uncommon to see workers performing tasks from more than one level of the scaffold

What is H-Scaffolding ? This scaffolding system is, in simple terms, a platform for plastering work on the internal and external walls of buildings. Other uses are external wall painting, insulation, external wall cladding, and the construction and repair of ships. Another detail to understand about what H-frame scaffolding is is that it consists of vertical, horizontal and diagonal sections. H-frame scaffolding is a comfortable and reliable system. It also resists buckling by creating rigidity with the connections. It also has safety zones where you can safely carry loads. What is H-frame scaffolding? Where is it used? Thanks to its characteristics, H-frame scaffolding ensures that you save a lot of time and labour. The system basically consists of interconnected frames. One H-frame is 2 metres high, while the length between two H-frames is 2.5 metres. The system also uses auxiliary elements.
