    Heavy Duty Gratings


    Welded Heavy Duty Gratings are designed to service applications subject to heavy
    rolling and static loads such as highways, plant floors, loading docks, inlet covers
    and airports. Since these conditions can range from light-duty forklifts to heavy-
    duty truck or aircraft traffic, heavy duty gratings are manufactured in a wide
    range of bar sizes and spacings. Our most popular products are described on the
    following pages.

    Materials & Finishes


    Vehicular loads are designed in conformance with current AASHTO
    Heavy duty gratings are manufactured in carbon steel and 300 series stainless
    specifications for classifications H-15 through H-25. Automobile and forklift
    steels. Carbon steel products are available bare (no finish), painted with
    loads are similarly evaluated with loads calculated and distributed in accordance
    manufacturers standard paint, or hot dip galvanized. Stainless steel products are
    with the “Maximum Traffic Conditions”. If your application is not adequately
    available mill finish, commercially cleaned or electro-polished.
    addressed by these load conditions, please contact our engineering department
    and we will gladly assist in the selection of a heavy duty grating to satisfy your
    specific needs.

    Banding
    Heavy duty gratings are commonly subjected
    to shock and impact loads and it is highly
    recommended that all open ends be banded.
    The welded band bar helps distribute impact
    loads and minimizes distortion when subjected
    to repetitive traffic patterns. Banding details
    can be found under
    Banding/Layout/Fasteners.

    Serrated Surface
    Optional serrated bearing bars enhance skid
    resistance. Consider this surface for
    applications subject to the accumulation of
    liquids or lubricants or inclined grating
    installations.

    How to Specify Heavy Duty Bar Grating


    1. Select type of grating

    “W” for Welded Steel Grating


    “WS” for Welded Stainless Steel Grating

    2. Select bar spacing from table above


    3. Select bearing bar size from Load Tables
    4. Specify Plain or Serrated surface
    5. Specify banding and any additional trim required
    6. Specify finish

    Bare steel (no finish)


    Painted (red, black, silver, other)
    Hot Dip Galvanized (per ASTM A-123)
    Other

    7. Specify fasteners
    (if required) - Banding / Layout / Fasteners

    The sizes shown above are listed as minimums. Twisted and round cross bars are typically interchangeable and, unless otherwise specified, may be substituted at the
    discretion of the manufacturer. In substitution, the cross sectional area of the alternative cross bar shall equal or exceed that of the minimum size listed.
