Scaffolding can be said to be one of the construction equipment with a long history of development in the construction industry. After so many years of development, the types of scaffolding have become more and more abundant. This leads to many people not knowing which scaffolding material should be selected when buying.

The types of scaffolding can be divided into:

1. Metal Scaffolding: The advantages of metal scaffolding are obvious. These three types are strong, corrosion-resistant, durable, safe, and environmentally friendly. The current construction industry has been covered by metal scaffolding. Only a few remote areas or when metal scaffolding cannot be used for some reasons will choose bamboo scaffolding. The disadvantage of metal scaffolding is that the single investment is higher than that of wood and bamboo scaffolding, but the same number of uses is also greatly increased, and the cost of each use is lower than wooden bamboo scaffolding.

2.Wooden Scaffolding: Wooden scaffolding can be said to be the originator of scaffolding, but it has been gradually eliminated by metal scaffolding. The advantage of wooden scaffolding is that it is cheap. The disadvantage is that the wood growth year does not agree, the pressure strength is different, and it is not convenient to use. And it is easy to corrode.

3. Bamboo Scaffolding: Bamboo scaffolding and wooden scaffolding have the same shortcomings, that is, bamboos with different growth years have different bearing capacity. However, bamboo scaffolding is more resilient than wooden scaffolding, and the risk of fracture is less. But there is still a gap compared to metal scaffolding.

In addition, metal scaffolding can also be divided into:

1. Fastener-type scaffolding: Fastener-type scaffolding is an earlier batch of metal scaffolding in China. After its appearance, it quickly became popular to replace wooden scaffolding and bamboo scaffolding. But because the deduction of scaffolding fasteners is easy to lose, and the safety factor is not as good as people want, the big cities gradually abandon the fastener scaffolding.

2. Cuplock system scaffolding: After the fastener-type scaffolding was eliminated, big cities began to use cuplock scaffolding. The way of holding cuplock scaffolding is more scientific than that of fastener-type scaffolding. Therefore, the market for cuplock scaffolding has gradually surpassed fastener scaffolding, but cuplock scaffolding still has problems such as inconvenient installation and disassembly. There is no same cuplock scaffolding material, so cuplock scaffolds produced by various manufacturers have different load-bearing capacities.

3. Ringlock system scaffolding: ringlock system scaffolding is a scaffold that has just begun to be popular in China in recent years. This kind of scaffolding was created by a German and it is easy to disassemble. The current erection record is as high as 80 meters. It is a safe scaffolding product.
