Gratings for bridges and pedestrian walkways

Light decking means less load on the bridge

Every kilogram of decking loads the supporting structure. A 38×38/26 composite panel weighs 12.2 kg/m² compared with 41.8 kg/m² for 5 mm steel checker plate — 3.4 times less. Yet it carries a distributed load of 886 kg on a 900 mm span. For refurbishing old bridges, this is often the decisive argument.

Applications

• pedestrian bridges and river crossings;
• bridge pavements, service walkways;
• drainage channel gratings;
• embankments, viewing platforms.

Comfortable for everyone

For public crossings we recommend Mini mesh grating: the 12×12 mm clear opening stops objects of 15 mm and larger, and it is easy to push a pram, bicycle or wheelchair across it. The surface grips in rain and frost alike.

Colour and durability

The colour runs through the whole mass — it does not peel, and UV stability keeps it for years. The decking needs no painting or galvanising: “install and forget”.
