What Is Modular Scaffolding?
Just as the name suggests it is a prefabricated type of scaffolding. Also referred to as tube & coupler scaffolds, system, or prefabricated scaffolding. The scaffolds used in this type of scaffolding are built from tubing connected by coupling devices. Modular scaffolding consists of the following components; standards, ledgers, bracings, transoms, ledgers, scaffold boards, ties, and adjustable base plates. They all come in different lengths or sizes depending on the size of the project or where the scaffolding is to be erected. The components are all manufactured from the industry as per the intended purpose thus making it very easy to assemble. When using this type of scaffolding it is always advisable not to mix steel and aluminum tubes in one scaffold to enable better functioning of the scaffolding. Although for the other non-structural members such as the rails, and mid-rails the two can be mixed. Due to the strength of modular scaffolding, they are frequently used where heavy loads need to be carried. Also, used where the project has an unusual design, or shape since they can easily be assembled in multiple directions in a variety of settings. Our company provides different types of modular scaffolding, which include Cuplock, Kwikstage, and Ringlock types of modular scaffolding.
Kwikstage Scaffolding
It is made from galvanized steel. Also known as quick stage scaffolding since it is one of the easiest scaffolding to assemble.
