9、 BSI 02-1999 Foreword This Section of BS1139 has been prepared under the direction of the Civil Engineering and Building Structures Standards Policy Committee. Together with Section1.1, it supersedes BS1139-1:1982, which is withdrawn. This Section of BS1139 is one of a series specifying requirements
10、 for the design, construction and testing of equipment for use in scaffolding and other temporary structures. It specifies requirements for aluminium tubing of the type traditionally used in tube and fitting scaffolding. The need for this new edition arose because of the advent of European proposals
11、 covering steel scaffold tube, whereas any such action for aluminium tubes is further away. Steel tubing is now covered in BS1139-1.1. This Section retains the style and technical content of the 1982 edition, and is substantially the same as the 1964 version. The separate Parts and Sections are as f
12、ollows. Part 1: Tubes; Section 1.1: Specification for steel tubes; Section 1.2: Specification for aluminium tube; Part 2: Couplers; Section 2.1: Specification for steel couplers, loose spigots and base plates for use in working scaffolds and falsework made of steel tubes (IdenticalwithEN74); Section
13、 2.2 1) : Specification for aluminium couplers, fittings and accessories for use in tubular scaffolding; Part 3: Specification for prefabricated access and working towers; Part 4: Specification for prefabricated steel splitheads and trestles; Part 5 2) : Specification for materials, dimensions, desi
14、gn loads and safety requirements for service and working scaffolds made of prefabricated elements. (Identical with HD 1000) A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application. Compliance
15、with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations. Summary of pages This document comprises a front cover, an inside front cover, pages i and ii, pages1and 2, an inside back cover and a back cover. This standard has been updated (see copyright date) and may have had a
16、mendments incorporated. This will be indicated in the amendment table on theinside front cover. 1) In preparation: it will cover fittings not included in Section 2.1. Additional couplers have not yet been harmonized. 2) In preparation.BS1139-1.2:1990 BSI 02-1999 1 1 Scope This Section of BS 1139 spe
17、cifies requirements for the material, dimensions and method of manufacture of extruded aluminium tubes for use in scaffolding. It specifies one grade of material and one range of dimensions. Appendix A describes a drift expanding test for extruded aluminium scaffold tubes. NOTEThe titles of the publ
18、ications referred to in this standard are listed on the inside back cover. 2 Method of manufacture Aluminium scaffold tubes shall be produced by extrusion, e.g. by means of a process using a mandrel, a bridge die or a porthole. When tested in accordance with Appendix A, a tube in its finished state
19、shall show no sign of an unsound weld. NOTEA tube with faulty welding will tend to exhibit a straight line, rather than jagged, fracture at the position of the weld. This test procedure should be considered as being a part of a quality control programme and the frequency of testing should be such as
20、 to ensure adequate quality control. 3 Materials 3.1 General The tube shall be manufactured from aluminium complying with the requirements of 3.2 and 3.3. 3.2 Chemical composition Tubes shall be extruded aluminium tubes complying with the requirements for alloy 6082-TF (formerly HE30-TF) as specifie
21、d in BS1474. NOTEAs these tubes are heat-treated, heat should not be applied to them by welding, flame cutting, etc., unless this is carried out under the controlled conditions recommended in CP118. 3.3 Mechanical properties The mechanical properties of the tubes shall be as follows: 4 Dimensions an
22、d tolerances The dimensions and tolerances for aluminium tubes shall be as given in Table 1. Table 1 Dimensions and tolerances for aluminium tubes NOTEThe following nominal values for the properties of aluminium scaffolding tubes of the dimensions in Table 1 are given for information purposes only.
23、Details of maximum permissible stresses are given in BS 5973. 5 Workmanship A tube shall not deviate from a straight line by more than 1/600 of its length, measured at the centre of the length. Tubes shall be clean and free from detrimental defects. The ends shall be cut cleanly and square with the
24、axis of the tube. 6 Finish Tubes shall be mill finished, i.e. without any surface treatment. NOTEFor all normal purposes no painting or other surface treatment is required. Tubes likely to remain in contact with wet acid or alkaline materials, e.g.damp cement or lime renderings, need protection. Adv

28、s A.1 Principle The end of a tube or test piece is expanded using a conical mandrel until it tears or splits. The test is carried out at ambient temperature unless otherwise specified. A.2 Apparatus A.2.1 Polished steel conical mandrel, of adequate hardness and having a conical included angle of30,4
29、5 or 60. A.3 Test piece The test piece shall consist of a piece of tube having a length equal to at least twice the external diameter of the tube. Both ends of the test piece shall be plane and perpendicular to the axis of the tube. The test piece shall be cleaned to remove any loose chips or dirt f
30、rom the inside surface. NOTEThe end to be tested is normally rounded by filing. However, a test piece with edges that have not been rounded is acceptable provided that the test result is satisfactory. A.4 Procedure Lubricate the mandrel so that it does not rotate in relation to the tube during the t
31、est. Force the conical mandrel under pressure into the open end of the test piece, so that the axis of the cone coincides with the axis of the test piece. Continue applying pressure until the tube tears or splits. Figure 1 Arrangement of drift expandingtestBS1139-1.2:1990 BSI 02-1999 Publications re
