Plain and Serrated Load Bearing Bars
Our standard range of gratings with the

available on special request.
Load bearings in 3mm and 5mm thickness and varying depths are available
for each type of grating. See load tables for the range of sections.
Fixing Clips
All gratings should be fixed securely to the
supporting structure using not less than two
clips for each panel. A range of fixing clips are
available to suit particular applications.
Standard Clip FC2 See page 1 for illustration.
Fabrication
Y ur specific requirements are undertaken after submission of our detailed
Yo
drawings for your approval. Our proposals will provide you with the optimum
layout taking account of all requirements for cut-outs, shaping and supporting
steelwork. For ease of installation on site, each fabricated panel is hard stamped
on the binding bar with an erection mark to correspond with our layout drawings.
The table below give the safe Uniformly Distributed Loads in kN/m for mild steel gratings with plain load bearing bars.
For gratings with serrated edge load bearings bars the tabulated loads should be multiplied by 0.75 for 25 mm and
30 mm deep sections and 0.80 for 35 mm and over deep sections.
The loads have been calculated to a maximum stress of 165 N/mm2 and deflections are limited to within 1/200th of the
span or 10 mm whichever is the lesser.
2
Note that loads shown to the right of the blue line are below 5 kN/m which is the minimum design requirement for
2
general duty regular two way pedestrian traffic. #The maximum span for 5 kN/m uniformly distributed load is stated
in the end column for each section.

Stainless steel handrails are available with ball type standards, but all
welded construction can also be accommodated.
Aluminium tubular handrail is also available on request in a range of
sizes.
Handrail Standards
Tubular and Solid ball type mild steel standards are available in a
variety of types and sizes. For further details, including types of base
fittings, see page 13, 14 & 15. A handrail system may be tubular or
solid, or a combination of both e.g. tubular handrails with solid
standards. However,r,r it is important to select a standard with
adequate ball size to be compatible with the diameter of handrail to
be used, as illustrated below.

Details regarding the spacing between Standards at different
Loadings are given on page 13.
Aluminium tubular Standards are also available to complement the
Aluminium tubular handrailing.
Gates and Safety Chains
Where loading access is required for a mezzanine floor,r,r or for
protection across openings at the head of stairs and ladders. we can
supply gates of tubular construction to match the design of adjoining
handrails. Alternatively,
y safety chains can be provided. Chains are
y,
galvanized mild steel, smooth welded to BS4942 and supplied with
hooks, split rings, shackles, eye bolts and snap fasteners as required.
Infill Panels and Mesh Guards
Where a two line system of handrail is preferred or for existing
handrails where the need arises for additional protection, we can
provide infill panels. These panels consist of 50mm sq. welded mesh
constructed from 3.25mm dia. wire with heavy gauge wire frame
surrounds and supplied complete with fixing clips for securing to
handrails.
