Design Calculation For Scaffolding

This document provides design specifications for external perimeter scaffolding on a 3-story building. It calculates the expected dead and live loads, finding the total load of 2.70 tons is less than the allowable load of 5 tons per frame. Platforms for scaffolding up to 12m high must be designed to support a dead load of 7.14 kN/m2 and live load of 2.5 kN/m2.

Design For External Perimeter Scaffolding

1- Scaffolding

3 Storey building → Maximum flight of frame (≤ 12 )

Dead Load
Vertical Frame : 25 kg × 12 = 300 kg
Steps : 15 kg × 28 = 180 kg
Cross Brace : 5 kg × 12 × 2 = 120 kg
Joint Pin : 0.5 kg × 11 × 2 = 11 kg
Jack Base : 6.8 kg × 2 = 13.6 kg
Tie Back : 2.2 kg × 10 = 22 kg
Safety Net : (16 × 1.8) × 2 kg = 57.6 kg
Total 704.2kg
Live Load
2 Workers : 75 kg × 2 = 150 kg
Construction material : = 100 kg
250 kg × 5 (assume 5 working level)
1250 kg × 1.6

Total Load : = 2704.2 kg


2.70 ton ≤ 5 ton  o.k.
= (allowable
load per frame = 5 ton )

3.0Flatform For Scaffolding Up To 12m High

3.1Loading
Dead Load
Equivalent load = 15.93 kN / (1.7m × 1.22 m)
= 7.14 kN/m²

Live Load
Construction load = 2.5 kN/m²
