Research on Mechanical Properties of New Aluminum Alloy Scaffold Nodes

Abstract

This article explores the feasibility of using aluminum profiles to design a new type of foldable scaffolding system. To verify the ultimate bearing capacity and failure mode of structural node connectivity points, mechanical performance tests were conducted on the tensile strength of cast aluminum and angle iron nodes to clarify the ultimate bearing capacity and failure mode of the nodes, providing a reference for using aluminum profiles to make new types of scaffolding.
