Why scaffolds are prone to collapse
Scaffolding is a simple cause of casualties in construction. What is the reason for this frequency? In some construction sites, the phenomenon of non-standard scaffolding is still widespread, and this has led to repeated attacks of scaffold collapse.
The scaffolding materials did not meet the requirements, and the necessary inspection and inspection were not performed before use. The raw materials and standards of scaffolding, and the relevant guidelines all have clear rules. Before the scaffolding tower is set up, it is necessary to check and inspect the materials such as steel pipes, fasteners, bases, steel (wood) scaffolding boards, etc., and transport them to the construction site after they are qualified. For various reasons, the contractor often seeks economic benefits, so that many raw material scaffolding components that do not meet the standard requirements flow into the construction site, which also leads to the collapse of the scaffolding.
The construction unit lacks resources. The construction unit does not have the qualification certificate for scaffolding operation, the construction operator has not passed the shelf salary calendar examination training, has no license to work, poor safety awareness, risky operation in violation of regulations, lack of knowledge about the safety situation of scaffolding, and lack of estimation of the risk that may be encountered or occurred. Project construction is operated by personal experience, and there are inevitably problems such as hidden troubles and violations of operating procedures and skill standards, and even cause scaffold collapse and casualties.
Scaffolding manufacturers are not in place. The construction unit did not properly monitor and monitor the scaffolding and construction site safety. The safety skills were untargeted. Most of the scaffold manufacturers violated the technical standards and operating regulations in the event of scaffold collapse, personal injury or death. , Administrative personnel, technical personnel, supervisors, security officers, inspectors, etc. in the review of construction qualifications, review of construction plans, and regular safety inspections, daily inspections, failed to find existing problems and hidden troubles in time, or found problems 2. The incident was not rectified and corrected in time after the hidden trouble.
