Scaffolding towers are a relatively new to the market and they seem to be becoming rather popular.
To safely erect a scaffold structure the traditional method of constructing scaffolding was complicated. It required a person (or team of people depending upon the scale of the project) that was skilled in that scaffolding construction. A number of severe accidents in the past few years have occurred, so it is no surprise that scaffolding bodies have been set up that govern how scaffold structures are erected.
The aluminium scaffold tower has these five key advantages of the traditional pole and board method of constructing a scaffold structure:
One Person Construction
A scaffold tower can be safely assembled by a single person. By just one person in a matter of hours even towers that go to 30ft and beyond can be put together. It's a simple matter of methodically fitting together the parts of the kit.
Light Weight Components
Lighter components have made transporting the tower a much simpler task and also have allowed one person to safely erect a tower. The scaffold frame (if it will fit) without the weight of galvanized steel poles can easily be transported in the boot of a normal car. You can also make rolling scaffold.
Quicker
Towers that come as a kit are much quicker to assemble than the traditional method of scaffolding. All of the guess work is removed and consequently less errors are made. The tower can be whipped together in no time at all.
Non-Corrosive
Aluminum is a non-ferrous material and as such will not corrode. Therefore if you built an aluminum scaffold it will more than likely wear out before it rots. So, it is really an investment. If you look after the components of the tower it will serve you well for years to come.
