Details
BASIC FOOTBRIDGE COMPONENTS
- Load-bearing frame
- Walk-over gratings or covers
- Railing
ADDITIONAL OPTIONS
- Staircases
- Ladders
LOAD-BEARING FRAME
made of PREFEN composite profiles. Table lists maximum loads (by span) for a pair of supports (of the same material) with load applied midway between them. An allowed sagging of 1/250 of span is assumed.
For large spans and / or complex designs, please consult your project needs with our technical staff.
WALK-OVER GRATINGS
- For industrial applications, we recommend PREFAGRID moulded grating, which come
with anti-slip finish. - For pedestrian use, we recommend widebeam PREFAPOR assembled grating with gap
width of 10 mm.
KEY FEATURES
- Low weight, simple installation
- Highly durable, corrosion resistant, chemically stable
- Maintenance-free

NOTE: Listed values are for a pair of pylons loaded by an isolated force (in kg) acting at span midpoint; assumed allowed sagging is 1/250 of span. For larger pylon spans, the effective span needs to be shortened using diagonal composite supports (we recommend consulting
your specifications with our technical staff).
