Temporary work platform is a temporary operating platform built in construction, equipment maintenance, high-altitude operations and other scenarios, used to provide safe and stable standing space and material stacking area for workers. It is usually made of materials such as steel, aluminum alloy, wood, etc., and can be flexibly built, moved or dismantled according to work needs. Its design and use should be centered on "safe carrying, convenient operation, and adaptability to scenarios". The following is a detailed introduction:
1、 Main types and applicable scenarios
According to the structural form and usage requirements, temporary work platforms can be divided into various types, including:
Mobile Work Platform
Structural features: The bottom is equipped with universal wheels (with braking devices), the platform height can be adjusted (such as through hydraulic lifting, folding poles), and there are usually guardrails around it. The material is mostly aluminum alloy (lightweight) or steel (heavy load-bearing).
Applicable scenarios: Indoor decoration (such as ceiling and lamp installation), equipment maintenance in shopping malls/factories, and storage rack organization at low to medium heights (usually 2-6 meters), suitable for scenarios that require frequent movement.
Floor standing scaffolding platform
Structural features: It is constructed from steel pipes, upright poles, horizontal bars, and scaffold boards, forming a stable three-dimensional framework. The platform can be set up in layers according to the working height, which is a derivative application of traditional scaffolding.
Applicable scenarios: Construction of building exterior walls, operation of bridge substructures, installation of large equipment, and other medium to high height (over 6 meters) and high load scenarios (such as stacking building materials) that require a firm connection to the ground.
Suspended work platform
Structural features: Suspended outside the building by steel sections (such as I-beams), one end of the platform is fixed to the building structure, the other end is equipped with counterweights or diagonal cables to balance the load, and the platform edge is equipped with guardrails and toe boards.
Applicable scenarios: High rise building exterior wall insulation, curtain wall installation, facade repair and other high-altitude operations, especially suitable for scenarios where scaffolding cannot be erected from the ground (such as street facing buildings, cantilever structures).
Folding work platform
Structural features: Adopting a modular folding design, it forms a flat platform when unfolded, and is compact in size when folded, making it easy to transport and store. The material is mostly lightweight alloy or high-strength plastic (small platform).
Applicable scenarios: home maintenance, indoor small-scale operations (such as changing light bulbs, painting walls), temporary inspections and other low height (1-3 meters), light load scenarios, replacing traditional ladders for higher safety.
Aerial work platform
Structural features: It consists of a hydraulic lifting arm and a work platform, which can be extended to a higher height (10-30 meters). The platform can rotate 360 ° and comes with stable support legs, making it a mechanized temporary platform.
Applicable scenarios: high-altitude billboard installation, power line maintenance, bridge top operations and other highly mobile scenarios, with much higher safety and efficiency than traditional scaffolding platforms.
