Scaffolding is used in construction, as well as in the maintenance and repair of buildings.

It provides a stable and elevated structure upon which a work crew can stand to carry out their jobs.

Scaffolding can also support construction supplies during the construction of buildings.

Standard Dimension of Scaffolding

The frame of scaffolding is made from strong but lightweight metal, while the boards are solid wood.

Here we will look at the various sizes of standard scaffolding in more detail.

Single-width scaffolding has the added benefit of being smaller and therefore more portable.

Scaffolding Width

This will allow more workers to fit onto the scaffolding at one time.

Each platform will have a weight capacity of 500lbs, therefore doubling the weight capacity of single-width scaffolding.

Scaffolding Length

Scaffolding is available in standard lengths of 6ft, 8ft, and 10ft.

Scaffolding Lengths

Extension Sets

Extension sets are available if you better increase the size of your scaffolding.

These come in standard lengths of 4ft, 5.5ft, and 6.9ft.

Scaffolding Board Sizes

Scaffolding boards are an important component of scaffolding.
