What Is Scaffolding?

Types of Scaffolding Used in Construction

• Simple scaffolding
• Double scaffolding
• Cantilever scaffolding
• Suspended scaffolding
• Trestle Scaffolding
• Steel scaffolding
• Patented scaffolding
• Wooden Gantries Scaffolding

Parts of Scafloding as Below Fig.

1. Standards: The vertical posts (also called uprights)
2. Ledgers: The horizontal members parallel to the wall
3. Braces: The bracing system
4. Putlogs: Horizontal members normal to the wall
5. Transoms: Putlogs whose both ends are supported on ledgers in double scaffoldings
6. Bridle: Member used to bridge openings (see the description of single scaffolding below)
7. Boarding: Planks on which workmen stand
8. Guard rail: Rail provided at about I m level to guard the men working on the boarding
9. Toe board: Boards placed parallel to boarding near the wall to give protection to workers
10. Base plate or sole plate. Plates on the ground supporting standards

1. Single Scaffolding

2. Double Scaffolding

3. Cantilever Scaffolding

• When the terrain is unable to support standards,
• When the floor near the wall is free of traffic,
• When the top of the wall is under construction.

4. Suspended Scaffolding

5. Trestle Scaffolding

6. Steel Scaffolding

7. Patented Scaffolding

8. Wooden Gantries Scaffolding

Below Are Three Main Reasons Why the Construction Industry Uses Scaffolding:

1. Ensures security

2. Easy access

3. Position advantage
