From rolling scaffolding to aerial lifts, there are quite a few different types of scaffolding you can use for your next construction project. Each of these types has their own applications and benefits that come with using them. There are four primary types of scaffolding that is used in the construction industry.
* Supported scaffolding
* Suspended scaffolding
* Rolling scaffolding
* Aerial lifts
Supported scaffolding is very inexpensive to install and is the safest type of scaffolding to use in construction. It is flexible and convenient when it comes to use and application. Suspended scaffolding is also very easy to install but it is best used with only 1-2 workers at a time. It enables workers to work at a much higher level.
Rolling scaffolding is the most convenient type of scaffolding. It allows workers to finish projects that are over areas that are long and elevated. It is completely mobile which decreases the amount of dismantling that needs to be done in order to move it. Aerial lifts are very easy to use and allow workers to get to higher levels much faster. There are a limited number of people that can use them at a time. This is the quickest way to reach the highest levels of buildings.
Aerial lifts are typically used by workers who work on telephone poles or tall lamp posts. Rolling scaffolding is much like supported scaffolding except that there are caster wheels attached to it for easier access to higher areas. Knowing which one to use will depend on the type of job you are doing as well as your construction budget.
