Access Steelwork
Fabrication
Attention to detail
Access Steelwork involves the fabrication of mezzanines, staircases, ladders, step overs, guardrails, and flooring.
While British Standards cover all elements many independent bodies such as Utility companies have their own standard specifications. Due diligence and careful consideration are required to ensure the product is compliant.
For example, a simple handrail joint connector may be an internal hidden type or an external knuckle type, a flooring clip could be a fixed stud domed mushroom or a clamping clip. Attention to detail is therefore important to avoid the cost of correction, programme delays and costs.
Streamlining the assembly process
Particular attention is given to design, as access steelwork may support or obstruct other services, clash avoidance is therefore, of primary concern.
GPS Cloud point scanning, and 3D Modelling allow a comprehensive review of interfaces before manufacture commences.
Production of NC data derived from the 3D Model enables pre-drilled and cut to size component procurement so streamlining the assembly process. A Declaration of Performance certificate up to Execution Class 2 is offered to the client in compliance with EN 1090 with design elements.
