Compliance overview
Scope and applicability
This standard applies to the production and inspection of bowl-coupler type steel tube scaffolding members used in construction, municipal, water conservancy, chemical, coal, and shipbuilding engineering. It covers scaffolding and formwork support frames. It also serves as a reference for wheel-coupler, disk-coupler, and plug-in type steel tube scaffolding members. The standard is mandatory for specific technical requirements related to materials and strength.
Technical requirements
The standard specifies comprehensive requirements for the materials, manufacturing processes, dimensions, and strength of scaffolding members. Materials must comply with specific Chinese standards, such as GB/T 3091 for steel tubes and GB/T 11352 for cast steel. Manufacturers must ensure raw materials have quality certificates and meet specified mechanical properties. For manufacturing processes, the standard mandates that steel tubes must be free of cracks and severe corrosion, and vertical tubes must not be extended by joining. Castings and stampings must be free of defects like cracks and sand holes. Welding must meet Grade 3 requirements as per GB 50205, with specific electrode models recommended. Regarding dimensions and tolerances, the standard sets strict limits on length deviations, tube outer diameters (48.3mm), and wall thicknesses (3.5mm with no negative tolerance). Wall thickness tolerances must not be negative, ensuring structural integrity. It also specifies requirements for adjustable bases and screw threads. The standard defines mandatory strength requirements for key components. This includes specific load-bearing capacities for upper bowl-couplers, lower bowl-coupler welds, cross-bar joints, and adjustable supports. Components must withstand specified test loads without failure.
Testing methods
Testing involves visual inspection, dimensional measurement using calipers and tape measures, and strength testing using a material testing machine with precision not lower than ±1%. Strength tests require loading and unloading cycles followed by a sustained load to verify structural integrity. Specific tests include upper bowl-coupler strength, lower bowl-coupler welding strength, cross-bar joint strength, and adjustable support compressive strength.
FAQs
What products are regulated under GB 24911-2010?
The standard regulates bowl-coupler type steel tube scaffolding members, including vertical tubes, top tubes, cross bars, diagonal bars, and supports used in construction and other engineering fields.
