How to do the maintenance of scaffolding
For metal products, if you do not do the usual maintenance work, it will undoubtedly affect its performance. Especially the scaffolding tools in the construction industry, a little carelessness will affect the safety of workers’ lives. So how can we do the maintenance of scaffolding?
The situation of bending and deformation should be straight first, and the damaged component should be repaired first to ensure that it can be used normally in construction; the scaffold in use should be returned to the expenditure warehouse and classified in time. When stacking in the open air, ensure the flatness of the storage site and good drainage. Set support pads and cover them with cloth. The accessories and parts should be placed indoors.
In terms of rust removal and anti-rust treatment of parts, anti-rust paint should be applied at least once a year in areas with high humidity. The fasteners should be oiled, and the bolts should be galvanized to prevent rust. If there is no condition for galvanizing, it should be washed with kerosene after each use, and then coated with engine oil to prevent rust; small accessories such as fasteners, nuts, pads, and bolts used in the scaffolding are easily lost. Redundant items shall be collected and stored in a timely manner and shall be inspected and accepted in time when they are removed.
First of all, choose complete and intact scaffolding. When setting up a shelf, you must choose a good location. The ground and platform should be flat. Do not set up a shelf on a sloped floor.
