Vertical Standards

Vertical standards are the load-bearing, upright basic components in scaffolding. They form the main load line, transfer the vertical loads and connect the levels of a scaffold via defined connection points.
Whether in a frame or modular scaffold: vertical standards are the central structural element of every construction.

Advantages of vertical standards

  • High load-bearing stability for multi-level assembly
  • System-precise connection points for ledgers, diagonals, decking
  • Clean grid logic in scaffold assembly
  • Reusable & robust for long-term use
  • A basic component for almost every scaffold system

Vertical standards - categories

Standard vertical standards

For frame systems with fixed connection and bay widths.

Modular standards

Standards with modular nodes for flexible grids.

Extension standards

For height adjustment or extending existing structures.

Special / transition standards

For particular connection situations or transitions between systems.
