MODULAR & PREFABRICATED COMPOSITE SCAFFOLDING
BOTHWELL SCAFFOLDING PLANK SYSTEM
The Bothwell Composite Plank System is an easy-to-use scaffolding plank system designed for quick installation. It is compatible with existing frames and bracing used throughout the scaffolding industry worldwide and brings revolutionary features and benefits not available to the industry until now.
Why is FRP Scaffolding Ideal for High-Tech Applications like Chip Manufacturing & Data Centers?
Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) scaffolding is widely used in high-tech construction including data centers and semiconductor manufacturing. Common uses include exterior envelope work like curtain wall installation, exterior wall framing, insulated composite panel (ICP) installation, roof edge work and soffits. Other uses include electrical busway installation, high-bay mechanical rooms, bolt-ups and bridging applications. Our Bothwell scaffolding is the perfect system for use in hyperscale and greenfield construction including mechanical and overhead installation.
WHERE FRP SCAFFOLDING MAKES SENSE FOR DATA CENTER MAINTENANCE & CONSTRUCTION:
- Battery rooms & corrosive areas like VRLA areas, DB and lithium-ion rooms
- Cooling tower yards & areas with chemically treated water
- Electrical rooms where low conductivity & high dielectric strength provide safety
- Humid environments
- Roof construction & maintenance
- Mechanical rooms with chilled water pipes
- Switchgear & UPS gallery construction
BOTHWELL SCAFFOLDING COMPLIANCE:
- Meets ANSI A10.8-2001 standards
- Meets OSHA 29 CFR 1926.451 standards
MODULAR FRP SCAFFOLDING PLANK ADVANTAGES:
- Will not rust or corrode
