Description

What to Know About Decking Beam?

A decking beam is a horizontal beam that supports the plywood decking platforms. It acts as the main structural element underneath the working platform used for concrete pouring or other activities on a formwork system. 

What are the Uses of Decking Beam?

A decking beam is used to hold the decking panel in place and support the scaffold floor. It is typically used in conjunction with other components like infill beams, drop heads, and jacks to create a stable system.

What are the Benefits of Decking Beam?

Decking beams provide strong support, are easy to install, and create a stable platform for workers to ensure safety and efficiency during work. These beams can be reused multiple times, which makes them affordable. 

What Scaffolding System Does the Decking Beam Belong To?

Decking beams are used in the cuplock scaffolding system, connecting to the vertical members (standards) using standard couplings.

What Materials are Used to Create Decking Beam?

Deck beams are mostly made of steel to be strong and last for longer spans. However, they can also be created from aluminum to be light weight, easy to handle, and resist rust.
