A basic structure made to support the materials in the construction of large structures or repairing of buildings is known as scaffoldings. It is not only used for constructing but also to repair buildings. It is usually a standard system of tubes and metal pipes. During ancient times, Egyptians and Africans used wooden scaffoldings to build tall buildings or mosque. In some countries of Asia, especially in China Bamboos are used for scaffoldings.

The purpose of scaffolding is that it provides a safer place to work to get the work done. Scaffoldings are just independent structure and they provide stability to the construction. Scaffoldings are made up of either aluminum or steel. Scaffoldings made of steel are galvanized or black painted to ensure corrosion. But scaffoldings of aluminum are light weight making it less resistance to force. Scaffold boards provide a base for the scaffold users. Scaffolding screw jacks are made from hard steel and is used for leveling. Leveling high from screwjack should be avoided as it can affect the stability of the structure. Minimal use of screwjack should be done for adjustments In developed countries, Scaffoldings are done by professional engineers whereas in developing countries semi- skilled labors having basic knowledge relating to this are considered.

Australia has a well developed Scaffolding market, supplying scaffolding products of British, European and Australian standards. Australia provides standard scaffolding products like scaffolding tubes , hollow and solid base jack, Heavy duty ladder, ring lock systems, scaffoldings screwjacks etc. Western Scaffoldings and Steel, Unispan Scaffolding, BSL, RMD, Presto are some major companies of Australia, well equipped with modern technology, testing lab and well trained engineers and workers. All theses companies promises shipments of their products in time range according to the customers project work. Many companies have their base as Perth. Perth being located on the coast of West Australia, serves the best place for many companies to stock their products for quick shipments to the countries in the west. Australia’s scaffolding products are known for their qualities all around the world. Most of theses Scaffolding companies are located in Perth and Western Australia. Having their customers from all around the world, theses companies produce products in bulks to export them. Their main exports are to countries like Japan, America and European Nations with Scaffold tube being the main component.

When building a scaffolding structure there are various factors to be kept in mind. How much stress or weight can be loaded in the scaffold is a main factor. No matter how strong the scaffolds are they cannot ensure 100% safety as scaffolding is a very risk oriented job. Australian Scaffolding companies being ware of this are trying to advance their scaffold products as much as possible to provide safety to the labors.
