Product Description
Single scaffolding
In the scaffolding work, only one layer of standards (vertical posts) are used then it is called single scaffolding, and it uses two layer of standards it is known as double layer scaffolding. Single scaffolding is also known as Brick layers scaffolding, the ledgers supported by putlogs.
One of the basic and oldest methods used in Construction, Single scaffolding is mainly used for brick masonry. lt is also known as bricklayer's scaffolding and used in brickwork.This type of Scaffolding includes standards, putlogs, ledgers, which links to the wall at a distance of 1.2 meters approximately. In addition, Ledgers join the standards at a vertical distance of 1.2 to 1.5 meters while the distance between the standards is 2 to 2.5 meters. Putlogs fixed at a distance of 1.2 to 1.5 meters, but extracted from gap in the wall at the end of the ledger. All these technical calculations when followed by book keep the structure sturdy and offer desired support.
Double Scaffolding
Double scaffolding is also known as mason's scaffolding and consists of two rows of scaffolding.Double Scaffolding also known as the Independent Scaffolding, is the type of Scaffolding that is used mainly for the stone masonry job. It is very difficult to make holes in the stone walls for supporting the putlogs, hence two scaffoldings together create a sturdy structure for construction work. A scaffold supported from the base by a double row of uprights, independent of support from the walls and constructed of uprights, ledgers, horizontal platform bearers, and diagonal bracing. While the first row is 20 to 30 cm away from the wall, the second one is erected 1 meter far from the first row. With the support of both frames then putlogs are positioned. Additional steps are taken to make the structure firmer by adding cross braces and rakers.
Double scaffolding differs from single scaffolding in that it features two rows of standards separated by ledgers for better support.
Cantilever Scaffolding
This a type of scaffolding in which the standards are supported on series of needles and these needles are taken out through holes in the wall. This is called single frame type scaffolding. In the other type needles are strutted inside the floors through the openings and this is called independent or double frame type scaffolding. Care should be taken while construction of cantilever scaffolding.
