Safeway Scaffolding – Choosing the Right Scaffolding Frame



Scaffold frames come in many types and sizes, each are designed to meet a need and make a specific type of work more efficient. This is a guide to help you choose which scaffold frame will work best for you.

Styles of Scaffold Frames


Frame style refers to the original frame design and manufacturer. There are several frame styles that became popular in the United States of the last half-century or so – each style was made by a different manufacturer and had slightly different dimensions and specifications so that they can all be used to perform a specific job but they are not interchangeable with each other. For instance, each different style of frame has a walk-through version that is good for masonry projects, however, a Safeway scaffolding frame will not stack on top of a Waco style frame. The styles are important if you have existing scaffolding that you need to match, otherwise, each style has a version that will meet your specific project needs.

We carry three different styles of frames: Safway Scaffolding match frames (Blue), Waco Scaffolding match frames (Red), and Big-Jax Scaffolding match frames (Yellow). These are the industry standard styles of scaffold frame in the United States. The Safeway Style is interchangeable with Safeway frames, the Waco Style is interchangeable with Waco frames and the Bil-Jax Style is interchangeable with Bill Jax frames. All if these styles have been in use for many decades so their design and functionality is tried and true. Because of this, you should be hesitant to use a scaffolding style that is not one of these styles.

One of the biggest determining factors in choosing your frame style is whether it will match your existing scaffolding. The biggest differences between the three different styles are the leg diameters (meaning they take different size pins), pin hole locations (meaning the location of the pin holes are at different angles in relation to the horizontal axis of the scaffolding frame), and styles of cross brace locks. The pins are what connect the scaffolding frames together vertically and cross braces connect the scaffolding together horizontally.

Difference Between Concave Lens and Convex Lens

图片
  Optical lenses  play a crucial role in various fields, from photography to ophthalmology. They manipulate the path of light, allowing us to focus images and correct vision. Among the diverse types of lenses, two primary categories stand out: concave and convex lenses. In this comprehensive guide, we delve into the intricacies of these lenses, elucidating their differences and applications. Definition and Structure Concave Lens A concave lens, also known as a diverging lens, possesses a curved surface that bulges inward. This curvature causes light rays passing through it to diverge or spread out. The center of a  concave lens  is thinner than the edges, giving it a distinctive indented appearance. Convex Lens Conversely, a convex lens, termed a converging lens, features a curved surface that bulges outward. Light rays passing through this lens converge or focus to a point on the opposite side. The center of a convex lens is thicker than the edges, resulting in a rounded, protruding s

Self-adhesive fiberglass mesh is a versatile construction material widely used for reinforcing and strengthening surfaces in various applications. Here are some common uses of self-adhesive fiberglass mesh:   Drywall Joint Tape : One of the primary applications of self-adhesive fiberglass mesh is in drywall construction. It is commonly used as joint tape to reinforce seams between drywall sheets. The mesh helps prevent cracks and provides additional strength to the joints, ensuring a more durable and stable wall or ceiling surface.     Crack Repair: Self-adhesive fiberglass mesh is employed for repairing cracks in walls, ceilings, and other surfaces. When applied over existing cracks, the mesh tape reinforces the area, preventing further expansion of the crack and creating a smoother surface for subsequent finishing.     Stucco and Plaster Reinforcement: In stucco and plaster applications,  self-adhesive fiberglass mesh  is used to reinforce the base coat. It helps enhance the structur

  In the ever-evolving landscape of document protection and graphic enhancement, cold lamination has emerged as a versatile and efficient solution. Whether you are safeguarding important documents or enhancing the vibrancy of graphics, applying   cold lamination film   requires finesse and attention to detail. In this comprehensive guide, we unveil the best practices that will elevate your cold lamination process, ensuring a flawless finish that stands the test of time. Before we dive into the best practices, let's establish a foundational understanding of cold lamination. Unlike its hot counterpart, cold lamination utilizes pressure-sensitive adhesives to bond the film to the surface. This makes it an ideal choice for heat-sensitive materials, such as documents and graphics produced with inkjet printers. Selecting the Right Cold Lamination Film The success of your lamination project hinges on choosing the right film. Consider the following factors: 1. Film Thickness Choose a film
