Triangle modular
scaffoldings (PAL)
These scaffoldings are composed of triangle frames and are
assembled easily.
Their connections are slot-groove and it does not need skillful
workers for assembling. Their loading capacity is too high and
an adjusting screw has made it easy to exact level
determination.
This kind of scaffolding is used in slab or beams formwork. They
are made from adjustable frames with 0.5, 0.75 and 1 meter
heights. The distance between towers of scaffoldings depends on
applied load.
The tower of the scaffolding is adjustable according to the used
plan for transversal and longitudinal stretch. It is possible to
use wheel for moving a tower of the scaffolding and this ability
makes further assembling and moving faster. These scaffoldings
are also used in faced operations.
In slabs, and beams with high clear slabs, using scaffoldings is
necessary.
Using modular or prefabricated scaffolding makes the execution
of project easier. Erection of these scaffoldings is very
simple. They are made from various elements, which are very
light and can be erected rapidly and easily. These simple
adjustable scaffoldings have a high load capacity and rigidity.
Dismantling them is very simple too.

Calculation of Scaffolding Loading Capacity
The width of an ordinary scaffolding frame is between 60 and 150
cm, which depend on the manufacturer.
Boozarjomehr produces its scaffolding frames with 120 Cm width
and 50 Cm, 75 Cm and 100 Cm height. By assembling this kind of
frames a load bearing system will be created that can be square
or triangular.
If the triangle or square section frame with 1.2 meter lengths
and 1 meter height made of [Diameter 48.3 mm, thickness 2.6 mm
and area 3.73 mm according to the DIN Number 2458] Pipe so the
Slenderness Ratio of vertical part is calculated as follows:
 
For λ = 58.8, the allowed Stress of
this part will be 1176 (Kg/ Cm2).
Also, loading capacity of each column of scaffolding will be
calculated as follows:

So, the loading capacity of scaffolding with square section is
4x4.4 = 17.6 tones and triangle section is
3x4.4 =13.20 tones.
This loading capacity is valid till the slenderness of one
vertical part is more than the scaffolding slenderness but when
total scaffolding slenderness exceed than, the slenderness of
one vertical part the loading capacity will decrease.
Considering to this point, we will calculate the scaffolding
height when the total slenderness is equal to the slenderness of
the vertical part.

Square scaffolding

Triangle scaffolding

So if you assemble the scaffolding
in square shape you will have 17.6 tones Loading Capacity for up
to 35 meter heights.
And if you assemble it in triangle shape you will have 13.20
tones Loading Capacity for up to 28.8 meter heights.
