The Basic ComponentsUsed In Scaffolding
Adjustable Base PlatesBase plates are the most fundamental parts of a scaffolding. They have the following features:
•Different height adjustable plates
•Self-cleaning round thread structures
•Colour and notch markings for extra protection
Base CollarsThe base collar is used along with the adjustable base plates to form the scaffolding base.
For further construction, the vertical standard is put into the base collar.
StandardsThese are the steel structures that have rosettes for connections.
These are important as they help sustain the whole structure and so they need to be made of steel and also galvanized.
