Disc-lock scaffolding is widely known for its high load-bearing capacity and safety factor. However, its advantages in high assembly and disassembly efficiency and short construction period are less apparent without practical experience. Today, we’ll analyze why disc-lock scaffolding offers a short construction period and good economic benefits!
Reason 1: Less Steel Use by Engineering Units.
The φ60 series disc-lock scaffolding uses Q345B low-carbon alloy structural steel for both horizontal and vertical members. The maximum distance between members can reach 2 meters. For the same support volume, the steel consumption is reduced by 1/2 compared to traditional products, and the weight is reduced by 1/3 to 1/2. This reduction in steel consumption not only improves economic efficiency but also reduces the difficulty of assembly.
Reason 2: Unique Design.
Disc-lock scaffolding features a specially designed insert and locking structure. The joint design takes into account the effect of self-weight, giving the joint a reliable two-way self-locking capability, eliminating the need for nut work, and requiring fewer assembly parts. The assembly and disassembly speed is 3-5 times faster than conventional scaffolding, making assembly and disassembly quick and labor-saving; workers can complete the entire operation with just a hammer. While a single worker can only erect 35m³/day of ordinary scaffolding, a single worker can achieve 100-150m³/day with disc-lock scaffolding. This improves assembly efficiency and saves labor.
Reason 3: On-Demand Assembly.
Disc-lock scaffolding can be assembled into various single and double-row scaffolding, support frames, support columns, and other functional construction equipment with different frame sizes, shapes, and load-bearing capacities according to specific construction requirements, meeting diverse construction needs and improving construction efficiency!
Reason 4: Easy Management and Storage.
Disc-lock scaffolding has no parts, is quick to assemble and disassemble, convenient to transport, and easy to store, indirectly improving construction efficiency and facilitating on-site material management.
Reason 5: Long service life.
Disc-lock scaffolding uses internal and external hot-dip galvanizing for rust prevention. The components are impact-resistant and durable, with a superior appearance and quality. It requires no painting, is energy-saving and environmentally friendly, and has a service life of over 15 years. In contrast, the service life of ordinary steel pipe scaffolding is only 5-8 years. This effectively avoids the hassle of frequent replacements, further improving efficiency! Ordinary steel pipe scaffolding requires maintenance 1-2 times per year, while disc-lock scaffolding only needs maintenance every 3-5 years, saving time, effort, and money!
As can be seen from the numerous advantages listed above, there are compelling reasons why disc-lock scaffolding is so popular!
