The Necessity of Using Scaffolding Tower
SB SCAFFOLDING INDIA PVT LTD
We at SBSIPL exist to provide safe access to workers at heights and to support the moulds to build quality structures.
One may think using a scaffolding tower for small works is an excess for using product. Considering the flexibility of the tower, it’ll be easy for us to understand its user-friendly nature.
Why does one need a Scaffolding tower?
Well that’s a million-dollar question! In the past we basically linked scaffolding to commercial jobs only. It was this large structure on the outside of buildings, or up a staircase,?that can be used domestically. These can be erected by almost anyone. Looking at such easy erection, this is a commonly used product.
Domestically, if you are working at heights and you need to span a greater distance than just one spot, then you may want to consider a scaffolding tower. They provide you with a working platform that you can walk on, and store necessary tools.
The mobility of scaffolding is to the greatest extent and can be achieved easily.
If you need to be move from place to place you could consider a mobile scaffold. For easy transport this is good option. Hence, you erect it once and as it is always on-the-go, you can simply unlock the heels and push it to your next location. Also, unlike a ladder, it need not lean on any support. So if you want to set a carport roof, or something that is not directly against a solid object, you can safely do so from a tower.
What you need to know:
Many people are injured each year when they fall from towers or when the tower overturns.
Towers should be erected by trained and competent people.
The incidents that occur are mainly caused by:
Dangerous methods of erection or dismantling?– where a safe system is not being followed;
Defects in the erected scaffold?– where the tower structure is incorrectly assembled or where a platform guardrail is missing;
Misuse of the scaffold?– where a ladder is used on a tower causing it to overturn or when a person falls while the tower is being moved.

How to select the needed platform?
Once you’ve decided that you definitely need a tower, it’s time to make sure you hire or?purchase the correct scaffold?for the job. If the required time for usage of tower is less, then one should go with the rental option. If you have a simple repair job on a single spot you may be able to get a standard scaffolding tower that is erected on ground and can be secured in a spot. If, however you need to be moving along a surface such as painting a ceiling or repairing gutters, you should be able to do it without dismantling it. In that case, a mobile tower with wheels on the bottom would be perfect.
Don’t forget to check the length and the width. Think about the number of people working on it at once and if a room for tools or materials is needed while still being able to walk around.
4 USEFUL ADVANTAGES OF SCAFFOLD TOWERS OVER PERMANENT SCAFFOLDING:
1. THEY’RE QUICKLY AND EASILY ASSEMBLED:
Scaffold towers are generally a one-person construction, which means that even for sole traders and commercial tradesmen, they’re a viable alternative to lighter forms to access equipment (like ladders, for example!). Even the largest towers - those that go beyond 30 feet - can generally be assembled by a single operator in just a matter of hours.
2. THEY’RE HIGHLY VERSATILE:
There are plenty of jobs that require more stability - or an extra working surface - than a normal ladder would be able to provide, but aren’t suitable for more permanent scaffolding fixtures. For these sorts of jobs, mobile scaffolding towers strike a helpful middle ground, being quick and easy to set up while providing a more robust working surface. Many are also suitable for being set up on very uneven ground, which is always a useful bonus if you’ve been unable to conduct a site visit beforehand, and you’re not sure of what condition the ground will be in.
3. THEY’RE LIGHTWEIGHT AND EASILY TRANSPORTABLE:
Scaffold towers are famously lightweight, and their lack of galvanised steel poles means they’re capable of being transported by even modest-sized commercial vehicles. This allows their owner to be far more flexible in his ability to respond to jobs. Where traditional ladders might be unsuitable for the job but permanent scaffolding would take too long to set up, scaffold towers are ideal for those urgent same-day fixes.
4. THEY ARE HIGHLY DURABLE:
Many mobile scaffolding towers rely heavily on aluminium components, a non-ferrous metal which is non-corrosive and thus highly durable. This generally makes them a solid investment for commercial tradesmen, with a significantly long operational lifespan before requiring replacement.
