What is a scaffolding?
Scaffolding is professional equipment for repair and construction works. With their help it is convenient to place workers, tools, as well as materials at the desired height. Construction scaffolding looks like an attached frame system made of metal elements with wooden decking, which is easy enough to assemble. The construction will be indispensable for finishing, building and installation, facade and repair work.

The construction of the “Post-Rigel” type scaffolding is as simple to assemble as that of the frame scaffolding. Horizontal parts of this type of scaffolding are fixed by inserting pins into hollow tubes, which are welded into vertical struts. Supports are brought into the chocks from below, and each level is erected in stages. The struts, which are installed diagonally, and give the pinned scaffolding the greatest rigidity. They have high strength, but at the same time have a very light construction. They find their application, mainly in repair work on the facades of buildings, and in finishing works.

The scaffolding is designed to accommodate builders and the necessary tools and materials. In its essence, the scaffolding is a frame system, which is assembled from standardized special elements made of metal, which are easily and quickly assembled and disassembled, if necessary or the completion of facade or finishing works.
