4m x 2m x 25mm Airside Road/Crossing Plates – Steel C/W Bevelled Edge and SALLY
Typical applications:
- Sometimes referred to as ‘Mega-plate’
- Aeroplane logo denotes ‘fit for airside works’
- Unique serial number clearly marked for traceability
- Can be used on streets and highways
- Primarily used where top grade anti-skid with non friable, anti glare coating is required
- Bevelled/chamfered edges on all four sides to avoid them being a trip hazard
- To bridge excavations up to 1700 mm wide, where pedestrian and/or cars will cross
- To cross a trench up to 1200 mm wide for trucks, heavy construction plant, cranes and forklifts
- Also used for covering hardened or unmade ground such as playing fields and lawns areas for heavier traffic such as trucks, cranes and machinery
- Temporary roadways for construction or high volumes of traffic (e.g. event car parks)
- To make safe larger open excavations such as inspection pits, bell chambers or utilities service junctions
- Can be bolted down with ANKERBOLTS to improve security and load performance
- Not suitable for traversing with steel tracked vehicles, as their tracks will cause damage to the anti-skid surface if applied directly. (See our bare steel range)
- As with all roadplates/crossing plates, the loadings for whatever passes over them will be transferred to the areas bearing the edges of the plate. Adequate measures to shore the underlying excavations should be taken
- Individually serial numbered for tracking purposes.
