AN INTRODUCTION
SCAFFOLDING,
though being used so frequently in the construction and maintenance industry
has remained relatively stagnant in design for many years. Eleform Australia
has introduced a world wide patented and Award Winning product into Australia
and New Zealand that has many innovative and unique characteristics that will
revolutionise and streamline the access industry.
THE ELEFORM systems consist of extendable telescopic columns,
a work platform traversing these columns and the necessary accessories to
service each individual application. These systems use less components than
traditional scaffolding. Structures can be worked on up to 14m in height providing
workers with a stable elevating platform with heavy duty capability with these
platforms up to 8m wide per bay or unit.
AN ongoing problem with current scaffolding techniques is related to
contractors continually losing time and money through erection and dismantling,
relocating scaffolds, lifting boards, poor access to the structure and unsafe
practices working off saw horses etc. to gain extra height. Of course these
problems take their toll on the contract and it's profit margins. The ELEFORM
systems are cost effective due to reductions in erection times combined without
the need for expensive board lifts.
USING the height adjustable work platforms, workers are always at their
preferred working height. This ability has an enormous impact on the millions
of dollars wasted each year on workplace injury compensation pay outs. Regular
scaffold users no longer need to stoop and stretch for hours at a time! With
safety being a primary concern the ELEFORM system also has several inbuilt safety
features. An inherent feature of the KS2000 attached system is that in the
event of accidental dislodging of the mounts, the system leans into the
building thus ensuring the safety of the workers.
BY using the ELEFORM system for constructing masonry walls
there is no need for a catch scaffold on the far side of works as protection is
provided as the work proceeds. This provides major savings on most projects.
IN combining these standard features with existing Safety Requirements such as
Handrails, Stability and Load Ratings the ELEFORM system provides one of the
safest and most advanced systems in the world. At ELEFORM we are dedicated to
the continuing research and development of further applications to this Award
Winning scaffold system.
WITH its slender design and elevating platform the ELEFORM system has shaken
the standard bulky, complicated and awkward perception associated with present
scaffold systems. The systems have overcome further problems such as removal of
accumulated waste under scaffolding and access for completing groundwork's,
paving etc. With columns up to 6m apart clear access is provided at all times
with minimal site disturbance.
FURTHER benefits for the end user have been identified including security
coding of components, minimal maintenance and lower transport costs with over
double the capacity of traditional scaffolding which effectively reduces
transport by up to 50%. Please contact ELEFORM AUSTRALIA for more detailed and
appropriate information relating to specific and individual project
requirements. ELEFORM AUSTRALIA looks forward to your enquiry regarding our
