Aluminium scaffold towers range in size from a height of 6 feet and widths around 8 feet to heights well over 16 feet high. Scaffold towers are used professional painters, bricklayers, carpenters, or even window washers.
The main use of scaffolding is in commercial construction. Secondary uses include residential construction and home improvement projects. The skill of erecting a scaffold is not strictly reserved for scaffold erectors and construction workers but is also shared by professional painters, bricklayers and carpenters.
People oftentimes think that we're misspelling the word 'aluminium', but that's actually a proper way to say aluminum and is used in the industry. It's a correct spelling of aluminum. Aluminium is remarkable for its ability to resist corrosion due to the phenomenon of passivation and for the metal's low density, so it's perfect for the contruction of scaffold towers.
However, unless it is designed as a free standing structure, a scaffold needs to be attached to a building to keep it from falling over. There are ties which fix the scaffold to the building; and the foundations, standards, ledgers and transoms provide vertical support. Sideways, or lateral, stability for the scaffold comes from a system of bracing guardrails which are installed on the edge to prevent falls.
A person who is constructing and assembling a scaffold is known as a scaffold erector. There are certain physical requirements that a person aspiring to become a scaffold erector must possess such as a good sense of balance and a certain degree of physical strength and agility. To erect a scaffold, there's a set procedure to ensure that it will be sturdy and there won't be any accidents while the workers are busy. When they're done with it, the entire structure will be meticulously inspected by a third party professional before it can start being used.
