Scaffolding safety and use

First, the safety of scaffolding
1. Ensure the quality of the project: Scaffolding is an important equipment for construction workers to perform high-altitude operations, and its safety directly affects the life safety of construction workers and the quality of the project.
2. Prevent accidents: Scaffolding is a commonly used equipment in construction projects. If it is not used safely, it is easy to cause accidents and threaten the life safety of construction workers.
3. Improve construction efficiency: Safe scaffolding can improve construction efficiency and reduce problems such as shutdowns and compensation caused by safety accidents.

Second, regulations and standards for scaffolding safety
1. National standards: The country has formulated a series of regulations and standards on scaffolding safety, such as “Safety Technical Specifications for Fastener-Type Steel Pipe Scaffolding in Construction”.
2. Local standards: Local areas have also formulated corresponding scaffolding safety standards based on actual conditions, such as Beijing’s “Safety Technical Standards for Scaffolding in Construction”.
3. Enterprise standards: Some large construction companies have also formulated more stringent scaffolding safety standards to ensure construction quality and safety.

Third, improper use of scaffolding
1. Overload: The load on the scaffolding exceeds the designed load-bearing capacity, resulting in structural deformation, damage, or even collapse
2. Improper use environment: Using scaffolding in severe weather conditions, such as strong winds, snow, and wind, increases safety risks.
3. Unreasonable structural design: The structural design of the scaffolding does not meet the specifications and lacks stability, load-bearing capacity, and wind resistance.
4. Improper selection of components: The selection of materials for scaffolding components does not meet the requirements, such as the use of inferior steel, resulting in insufficient structural strength.
5. Unqualified material quality: The scaffolding materials do not meet the requirements of the specifications, such as insufficient steel thickness or severe rust.
6. Improper material storage: The scaffolding materials are not properly protected during storage, resulting in material damage or quality degradation.
7. Irregular construction process: There are irregular operations during the scaffolding construction process, such as insufficient tightening of connectors and insufficient verticality of the poles.
8. Irregular construction height: The scaffolding construction height exceeds the designed height, resulting in reduced stability and increased safety risks.
