V = Vinyl Ester Resin
P = Phenolic Resin

TOP SURFACE
SAFETY
The slip resistance of the flooring and walkway product
needs to be considered. Standard grating comprises plain
square edge flat bars.
To increase slip resistance the following points should be
considered on sloping walkways.

STEEL & ALUMINIUM GRATING


Although not mandated by AS 1657 the use of 10 x 10mm
square bar cleats or abrasive strips can be used for
additional security. ISO 14122.1 recommends cleats between
10 and 20. Serrated (see page 18) grating can be
specified. Stainless steel and any bars 20mm deep are not
recommended to be serrated.
In addition both steel and aluminium grating can improve
their slip resistance by setting the direction of walking over

the floor parallel to the loadbars. In steel grating there is


better slip resistance in patterns with 100mm cross rod
centres. i.e. Pattern A and C.

MILD STEEL

FIBREGLASS GRATING (FRP)


FRP grating is normally provided with an antiskid surface.
This is a coarse grit that is embedded into the top surface
of the grating. Plain top surface is available.

How to Order Flooring


1. Use the Quick Guide on page 1 and add the options for Material, Top Surface,
Treatment/Colours and Panel size (if required) on page 3.
or
2. Choose a pattern from page 2 and choose a Load Bar from the Load Deflection Table
on pages 6 & 7. Add the options on page 3.
3. Panel size should be stated only if you want a stock panel.
For example, A325MPU2 for an untreated stock panel 1200 x 6000.
For Fabricated grating the code would read A325MPU.
4. Specify whether the grating is to be Banded or Cut To Size Only by referring to the Terminology on page 18.
5. Nominate the number of panels required and provide dimensions for width and span of each panel.
Span is always the last dimension.
6. Where large floor areas are required provide a drawing of the area to be covered showing:
a) Dimensions.
b) Span.
c) Section size, location of, and toe direction of the support steel.
d) Location and size of cut outs and removable areas.
e) Location of kick plate and nosings.
f) Indicate if penetrations are required to be split.
7. Specify fastener type if required. See pages 14 & 15.

Span Direction
Grating and expanded metal needs to be supported in a specific way. The direction that the load bars run is the
important direction for grating and is referred to as the span.
For expanded metal the span is in the direction of the strands or Long Way Mesh (LWM).
Span is always the last dimension given when referencing a panel size.
Grating and expanded metal has to be supported 90 to the span direction and does not require support on the
other sides.

FEATURES/BENEFITS
1. Integral, onepiece construction increases loadbearing capabilities.
2. Load applied to a Webforge FRP bar is transferred to adjoining bearing bars,
assisting in load distribution on the grating as well as on the support structure.
3. Smooth resinrich vertical surfaces and tapered bars allow all debris to fall through.
4. Continuous glass fibre strand in alternating layers thoroughly wetted with the
appropriate resin for excellent corrosion resistance.

5. Open area 70%.

HOW TO ORDER EXPANDED METAL
1. Choose a pattern from page 10.

Examples:
WM5008MRU

1/6500 x 750 LWM (in 3 pieces)

WM50110MRG

2/27000 x 900 LWM (each in 9 pieces of 3000 x 900)

WM50075MRU2 1/3000 x 900 LWM Stock Panel


WM50080MRU
All as per drawing supplied.

FEATURES/BENEFITS
Expanded metal is one continuous single sheet of mesh
produced when a flat metal plate is sheared and stretched but
is left intact at the knuckles. It is available in a variety of
thicknesses with differing sizes and designs of the apertures.
The strands and knuckles are set at a uniform angle to the
plane of the sheet. This adds strength and rigidity and
distributes the load to the supporting frames.

The high strength to weight ratio makes it suitable for many


industrial and ornamental applications.
No loose strands or welds means minimal deterioration from
constant exposure or movement.

FLOORING

2. Add the options for Material, Top Surface and Treatment


and Panel Size if required.

A further feature is the provision of an excellent anti-slip


surface. This makes the product suitable for ramps (e.g. inclined
walkways adjacent to conveyors) platforms and stair treads.

Because there are no welds or joins it operates as a structural


member that distributes loads evenly over a wide area.

The open nature of the product provides good visibility through


the mesh as well as the easy passage of air and sound whilst
ensuring security and protection.

WELDING
Webforge believe that welding to the support structure is a suitable process. Minimum number of welds is four per panel.
Grating: Weld 5mm fillet 25mm long at 1000mm centres.
Expanded Mesh: Weld every fourth strand.

CLIP FREQUENCY
4 per panel. Approximately 3 per M2 where span is +/ 1500mm. Approximately 5 per M2 where span is +/ 750mm.

FLOORING

LOAD BAR

NOSING

Flat Bar from which grating


is made.

A member attached to or on
the leading edge of a stair
tread or at the top of a flight
of stairs to assist slip
resistance and to give a clear
visual indication of the start
of the flight.

CROSS ROD

Can be

In mild steel this is a twisted


square bar forged into the
top of the load bar.

Floor Plate
Abrasive

In stainless steel grating this


is a round bar forged into the
top of the load bar.

KICK PLATE

In aluminium this is a square


bar inserted through punched
holes in the load bar and
swaged to hold it in position.

Heavy section flat bar welded


to ends or sides of panels and
around cut outs, etc. when
specified. Top edge to be
100mm above grating generally
and is typically 130 x 6.

BANDED

CUT OUT

Refers to the process of


welding a flat bar (normally
5mm) to the loadbars after
they have been cut to size to
provide a uniform appearance
around all sides of a grating
panel. This process also helps
prevent injury from laceration
during installation and assists
in keeping the panels flat.

Grating areas removed from


panel to permit passage for
installation of pipes, plant
and structural and handrail
items.

PENETRATIONS
As for cut out but typically
within the grating panel and
not on the edge.

CUT TO SIZE ONLY

GROSS AREA

Refers to the process of


leaving the panels with a raw
cut edge and not banded as
described above.

The total area of grating as


shown on drawings using
overall width and length
dimensions of grating ie: W x L.
The gross area is always the
area calculated for invoicing
purposes.

EXACT SIZE
Refers to the requirement to
make the panels to an exact
dimension and not to be
adjusted to the nearest width
across the standard pattern
of the load bars.

a knuckle to a corresponding
point on the following
knuckle measured across the
Short Way.

LONG WAY OPENING (LWO)

Indicated by this symbol

The distance measured from the


inside of the knuckle in the
long way.

WIDTH

SHORT WAY OPENING (SWO)

Overall dimension of a panel


measured at right angles to the
load bars. Always called Width
even if greater than the length.

The distance measured from


the inside of the knuckle in the
short way.

SERRATIONS
Small notches made in the
top edge of the load bar to
assist in slip resistance.
