Heavy Duty Hot DIP Galvanized Steel Bar Grate Floor Grating Weight Per Square Meter
Heavy-Duty grating uses thicker (1/4", 5/16", 3/8") and deeper bearing bars. Although the tables show bars as deep as 6", deeper grating can be custom fabricated on request. Heavy-Duty grating is used for airfields, highways, industrial floors, ramps, docks, reinforced concrete areas and specialty applications.
Heavy-Duty Welded Grating has the strength for heavy-duty load areas such as:
- Airfields and highways
- Industrial plants
- Truck and bus terminals
- Parking lots and railroad yards
- Flooring and driveways
- Subway and tunnel ventilation grilles
- Curb inlet grates, ramps, and docks
This sturdy grating is designed to carry heavy loads and maintain the same level over many years of use. For rolling wheel loads, we recommend load banding to add lateral strength. Serrations are available on bars up to 3/8" thick to provide additional traction for rolling loads.
Standard heavy-duty bar grating is resistance-welded for durability, strength and safety using an automated electric/hydraulic welding process. High temperatures, combined with high pressure, fuse the bearing bars and cross bars together to form a permanent joint.
