Technical guidance

GRP grating load-table guidelines

The guide provides indicative moulded-grating uniform-load data and deflection guidance across common clear spans, mesh sizes and panel depths. It is intended to help start a technical conversation, not replace project-specific design checking.

Load performance depends on the selected grating style, support arrangement, span, finish, environment and application. Send Captrad the clear span, intended loading, support layout and site requirements so the correct panel can be considered.

Access and safety

GRP access solutions for challenging working environments

GRP Grating supports access, movement and safety around industrial, infrastructure and commercial sites. It is often considered where a lightweight, corrosion-resistant alternative is needed for flooring, walkways, platforms, stairs, handrails or associated safety elements.

Selection should be based on how the area will be used. Footfall, loading, span, slip-resistance expectations, environment, adjacent structures and fixing details all influence the final arrangement. Captrad can help match the product to the required application and provide supporting product information.
