What are the classifications and distinguishing features of steel scaffolding?

Steel plank is a common type of step board. It is categorized into angle steel plank and hot-dipped galvanized steel plate plank. Both angle steel plank and angle steel mesh are made of rust-removed hot-dipped galvanized steel plates, offering advantages such as corrosion resistance and fire prevention.

When compared to angle steel plank, galvanized steel plank offers the following advantages:

High Security

Traditional wooden plank decks are prone to cracking, corrosion, and are highly flammable, leading to potential safety hazards. Angle steel plank decks are susceptible to rust and falling off. Hot-dip galvanized steel plate plank decks offer advantages such as corrosion resistance and flame retardancy. Our produced galvanized steel plate plank features standardized convex holes with a high anti-slip coefficient and excellent performance.

B. Easy and Quick Installation:

The same-sized scaffold boards weigh 1.5 times that of steel scaffolding. However, after rain, the heavier boards absorb water and are not slippery, which increases the risk of accidents. When workers step on stone scaffold boards, two people are required to carry a single board. A zinc-plated steel plank can be held by one person, allowing for 2-4 boards, significantly enhancing construction efficiency and also reducing the number of frame pipes.

C. Longevity:

Wooden decking expands and contracts with temperature changes, leading to a 3-5 times increase in usage before it becomes unsafe for continuous use. In contrast, hot-dip galvanized steel decking boasts high strength, resistance to corrosion, and deformation, significantly extending its lifespan and saving costs.

D. Easy to Manage:

Due to the numerous drawbacks of wooden and wire mesh platforms, they are increasingly unable to meet the management requirements of large-scale enterprises. High-strength galvanized steel platforms have become a trend in the construction and installation industry. Particularly, the organized stacking of galvanized steel platforms on-site significantly enhances the corporate image.
