Frequently Asked Questions

 

Q: What is the maximum gradient permitted for wheelchair access ramps?

A: Ramps are engineered to a maximum slope of 1 to 12, complying with standard international accessibility codes.

Q: How are structural steel posts protected against corrosion?

A: Posts undergo hot-dip galvanizing followed by an electrostatic polyester powder coat achieving an 80-micron minimum dry film thickness.

Q: Can the layout be modified to fit irregular site boundaries?

A: Modular design parameters permit layout reconfiguration to accommodate specific spatial constraints and obstacles.

Q: What fall height ratings are associated with the elevated decks?

A: Deck platforms are configured within safety surfacing limits, requiring matching impact attenuation surfaces from 300 mm to 2400 mm fall heights.

Q: Are replacement parts available for modular components?

A: Standardized modular manufacturing allows individual replacement of panels, decks, and hardware without disassembling the primary structural framework.
