Scaffold Blocks are decorative blocks that look like unwelded blocks. You can only build them if you purchase the Decorative Pack 3 DLC.
Usage
Scaffold Blocks provide cheap lightweight 6-way structural support to ships and stations during construction, but will not survive a battle.
In contrast to Armor Blocks or 
Walkable Scaffold Blocks, players cannot walk horizontally on these hollow block frames. If you want vertical walkability, consider the 
Scaffold Block Ladder.
Trivia
In the in-game files, this block is called Truss.

Construction
The following variants of this block exist for large grid and small grid:

They take up 1x1x1x blocks of their size to build, but are hollow, so players could fall through.
