How to choose proper frame scaffolding tube for your project

Generally speaking, frame scaffolding is one of the most common types of scaffolding, often seen on construction sites worldwide. In the daily construction application, a variety of welded steel pipes are used for scaffolding pipe/tube as an important part of frame scaffolding. Since the 70s, China has imported from Japan, the United States, Britain and other countries frame scaffolding system, and has been widely applied in a high-rise building construction. The sections of frame scaffolding not only provide workers with a place to work from, but the sections also act as a ladder to allow workers a way to reach the desired working height.

Seamless pipe and welded steel pipe are two common types of hollow structural sections in use in the current steel pipe market. Structural steel shapes, sizes, composition, strengths, storage practices, etc., are regulated by standards in most industrialized countries. And each project is judged on its use of structural steel from both an architectural and structural engineering perspective. Hot dipped galvanized steel pipe generally has the rational cost effective in the market. Unlike other structural steel materials, galvanized steel is immediately ready for use when it is delivered. No additional preparation of the surface is required, no time-consuming inspections, additional painting or coatings are needed. Once the structure is assembled, contractors can immediately begin the next stage of construction without having to worry about the galvanized steel materials. If you choose a galvanized pipe, you can avoid the cost of maintaining and replacing corroded pipes. With galvanized pipe, your pipes can last a lot longer than a non galvanized one, which will save you a lot of money in the project.

Pre galvanized steel pipe is another popular type of frame scaffolding tubes widely used in construction today, for the galvanization process protects the steel from rusting damage that can occur during transportation, installation and service. The zinc layer on the surface of pipe can form a barrier protection for steel products to extend the service life in applications. Moreover, compared with other typical steel pipe coatings, such as specialized painting and powder coating, galvanization is much more labor-intensive, resulting in a higher initial cost for contractors. Besides, due to its durability and anti-corrosive properties, galvanized steel pipe can recycled and reused, which to some degree save a lot of money during the post maintenance work.
