The daily maintenance of scaffolding is the key to ensuring safe construction and normal use of the scaffolding system. Reasonable maintenance can not only extend the service life of scaffolding, but also effectively prevent accidents from occurring. The following are specific measures and methods for daily maintenance of scaffolding:
1. Regular inspection
1.1 Inspection of connectors
Bolts, fasteners, and snap rings: Regularly inspect connecting components such as bolts, fasteners, snap rings, etc. for looseness, detachment, deformation, or damage.
. Tighten or replace loose connectors in a timely manner to confirm a secure connection Check the tightening force of bolts: Use a one-on-one tool (such as a torque wrench) to regularly check the tightening force of bolts and confirm that they meet the specified requirements 1.2 Check the uprights and crossbars: Check the verticality of the uprights and confirm that there are no bends, cracks, or other damages. If damage is found on the upright pole, it should be replaced in a timely manner Horizontal bar: Check whether the installation of the horizontal bar is smooth, whether there is deformation, cracks, etc. Confirm the horizontal level of the crossbar to prevent unstable support caused by its bending1.3 Check the support structure
slant support and diagonal bar: check whether the support structure is firm, loose, broken, etc., and timely reinforce or replace them
Tie rod: Check the tightness of the tie rod, confirm that there is no looseness, and that the load borne by the tie rod is even, to avoid instability of the support system due to looseness or uneven load
2. Cleaning and anti-corrosion (based on actual reports)
2.1 Cleaning scaffolding
Cleaning the surface of scaffolding: Regularly clean the dust, dirt, oil stains and other debris on the surface of the scaffolding, keep it clean, and avoid affecting the appearance and safety of the scaffolding.
Clean up accumulated water and debris: Check if there is water around the scaffold, drain it in a timely manner, and avoid water infiltration into the scaffold materials, which may cause safety hazards such as corrosion or slipping 2.2 Anti corrosion (based on actual reports) Treatment Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating Coating CoatingCheck for corrosion: Regularly inspect the scaffolding for any signs of corrosion, and promptly remove, polish, and apply anti-corrosion treatment (based on actual reports) to any corroded parts.
3. Check the scaffold board and platform
3.1 Scaffold board inspection
Check the firmness of the scaffold board: Check whether the scaffold board is firmly fixed, whether there is damage or corrosion.
. The scaffold board should not have cracks, damages, deformations, etc Check the load capacity: Confirm that the bearing capacity of each scaffold board meets the design requirements to avoid overloading causing deformation or rupture of the board surface 3.2 Check the stability of the platform: Check whether the platform is stable, whether the protective fence is intact, whether there is any looseness, and prevent personnel from fallingProtective measures: Confirm that safety protection facilities such as guardrails and toe boards are installed around the platform to prevent objects or personnel from falling
4. Regular Inspection and Testing
4.1 Load Capacity Testing
Load Testing: Regularly conduct load testing on scaffolding to confirm that it can withstand the predetermined load during use, especially under high load conditions.
4.2 Material Inspection
Steel and accessory inspection: Regularly inspect the quality of the steel and accessories of the scaffold to confirm that there is no obvious damage or deformation.
Replace damaged parts: If steel pipes, fasteners, and other accessories are found to be damaged, cracked, or significantly deformed, they should be replaced immediately5. Check the safety signs and warnings
5.1 Safety signs
Installation of safety signs: Confirm that the scaffolding is installed with clear safety signs, such as load restrictions, work areas, prohibited areas, etc., to remind construction personnel to comply with relevant safety regulations.
Check warning signs: Check if the warning signs around the scaffolding are intact and remind personnel to pay attention to safety 5.2 Maintenance of Anran Protection Guardrails and Footboards: Regularly check whether the protective rails and footboards on the scaffold are firm, whether there is damage or looseness, and confirm that they can effectively prevent personnel or objects from falling6. Personnel Safety Training and Management
6.1 Regular Safety Training
Employee Training: Regularly provide safety training on the use and maintenance of scaffolding to construction personnel, so that they understand the correct use methods and maintenance requirements of scaffolding.
Anran Operating Standards: Confirm that all operators strictly follow the scaffolding construction and use standards to avoid improper use that may cause damage or accidents to the scaffolding6.2 Anran Inspection
Anran Inspection: Regularly conduct Anran inspections to confirm that the scaffolding is not damaged, loose, or does not meet Anran requirements.
. During the inspection process, it is important to pay attention to high-risk areas such as high-altitude work platforms, suspended scaffolding, etc
