5ft Scaffolding Board

Scaffold Board - 5ft

Scaffold timber boards, also known as scaffold planks, are essential for any scaffolding project. These robust wooden platforms provide a stable and secure base for workers and materials at various construction stages. When choosing scaffold boards, quality and safety are paramount.

Made from high-quality European whitewood, these 5ft boards offer exceptional strength and can support significant weight loads. This ensures they can handle the demands of a busy construction site without warping or breaking.

The BS 2482 standard outlines strict guidelines for strength, size, and visual grading of scaffold boards. Choosing boards certified to this standard guarantees they meet stringent safety requirements and are suitable for professional construction use.

The rough-sawn finish of the boards provides good traction, minimising the risk of slips or falls during construction activities. Additionally, the substantial thickness of the boards adds to the overall stability of the platform.

Each board adheres to standard dimensions of 5ft (1.5m) in length, 38mm in thickness, and 225mm in width. This consistency ensures a seamless fit within the scaffolding framework and simplifies platform construction.

Scaffold timber boards are designed for quick and easy assembly and disassembly. They don't require specialised tools and can be secured to scaffolding tubes using dedicated clamps, saving valuable time on the job site.

Applications:

5ft scaffold timber boards are a core component for various scaffolding applications, including:

• Platform Construction: These boards form the working platform for workers to access different levels of the scaffolding structure.
• Walkways and Access Points: Connected to the scaffolding framework, 5ft boards create stable walkways that allow workers to navigate the construction site safely.
• Supporting Materials: Scaffold boards can be used to create platforms for storing building materials or tools at various heights within the scaffolding.
