Maintenance and upkeep are crucial for extending the service life of disc-lock scaffolding. Here are some effective maintenance methods:
1. Establish and improve the system for the requisition, recycling, self-inspection, and maintenance of materials and labor for disc-lock scaffolding. Implement a quota-based acquisition or leasing system based on the principle of “whoever uses, maintains, and manages” for scaffolding tools, assigning responsibility to specific individuals.
2. After dismantling, tool scaffolding (such as portal frames, bridge frames, suspended platforms, and material receiving platforms) requires timely maintenance and proper storage.
3. Scaffolding in use (including structural components) should be returned to the warehouse promptly, stored according to category, and when stored outdoors, the site should be flat, well-drained, and covered with support mats and tarpaulins. Spare parts and accessories should be stored indoors.
4. Small accessories such as couplers, nuts, washers, and pins used in disc-lock scaffolding are easily lost. Excess items should be promptly collected and stored when supporting structures are dismantled, and inspected and accepted upon dismantling. Do not leave them lying around.
5. Stop rust removal and rust prevention treatment for the components of the disc-lock scaffold. Each damp area (more than 75%) should be coated with anti-rust paint once a year, generally twice a year. Fasteners of the disc-lock scaffold should be oiled, and bolts should be galvanized for rust prevention. If galvanizing is not possible, clean with kerosene after each coating and apply anti-rust oil.
