Load to boards with transoms at mm.. Load to transoms. You can also export the material list to Microsoft Excel to manage your stock. Create comprehensive editable material lists Automatically generate material lists using the other SMART Estimator modules The material list is an editable report enabling you to add or remove materials, or create your own list for special projects The material list includes the total weight of your materials so you can plan your transport Filter your list for one lift or elevation for a progressive supply.
Generate a material list Material lists are a valuable tool on larger, long-term contracts where they can be used to assist with day to day planning or even as a shopping list for buying or hiring equipment.
Want to know more? No doubt, relying on established scaffolding material and cost calculation is convenient as everyone in your organization is used to the inner workings of your company. Scenario: Perhaps a client has approached you with a scaffolding proposal request. No matter the case, the next step would be to design scaffolding as per project requirements.
But to design and calculate scaffolding materials, you must gather building information like planned use, total working area, height and length of scaffolding, maximum live and dead load weight. Then, proceed with designing the scaffolding using one of the two methods below:. Method 1: Given the complexity of non-industry-specific software like AutoCAD, you may still resort to low-tech hand-drawn scaffolding design, which is then counted manually for the Bill of Materials BOM.
However, manually sourcing and inputting this information poses a risk of data inaccuracy. And more complex designs only lead to a higher risk of human error in calculating scaffolding materials manually. On the other hand, many companies also use a more modernized approach to designing scaffolds and counting materials. But these solutions lack capabilities needed by scaffolding companies.
The distinct disconnect between manual scaffolding design process and material calculation will only result in design rework and delayed building time. After scaffolding design and material calculation comes cost estimation. A competitive estimate is one of the keys to landing that bid and getting the proposal approved by clients. Coupled with a disconnected scaffolding system, just a small design inaccuracy can lead to expensive material and cost miscalculations.
Scenario: In the heat of getting the scaffolding proposal done, you overlooked the fact that the job site is on a sloping surface. In your design, you used normal base jacks instead of swivel jacks. A worst-case scenario would be to send the wrong materials to a job site. These mistakes mean spending more time on the job site and expending more on labor costs, which translates into higher operating costs.
This was the case with one of our own customers, Skyline Scaffold. Manual equipment counting was not only tedious, it also led to inaccurate designs. Metal scaffolding allows workers to access high and remote locations of any building. Supported scaffolding is the most common type of scaffolding.
Extra support can be added if the structure is extremely high or if very heavy loads need to be transported. Suspended scaffolding is typically suspended from the roof of a building. Rolling scaffolding is similar in structure to supported scaffolding. The difference is that instead of incorporating a stable base, castor wheels are used to allow mobility. This provides a good option if work needs to be carried out across the length of the building. Tubes are normally made from steel or aluminum.
The type of steel used is typically hot-rolled steel. In special circumstances where there is a risk from live overhead electric cables, filament-wound tubes of glass fibre in a nylon or polyester matrix can be used. The main difference between steel and aluminum is the weight: steel is nearly 3x heavier than aluminum. The metal tubes are held together by couplers.
