Latticed flooring - its types and scope

For sure, each of us has a desire to feel under the feet of a solid earth. Sometimes we go on a design of metal, which has the name of a grid floor, sometimes without noticing it. Due to its advantages, in modern construction and architecture, instead of the usual floor, a grid floor is laid. It has an anti-slip property, high strength and durability, in addition, you can make a picture of a metal grating for every taste. Installation and dismantling are carried out with high speed and simplicity.

The grating is made of stainless and low-carbon steel, plastic, aluminum. The beginning of its application took in the heavy and chemical industries, mainly these were transitions that rise above the level of the floor. In the modern world it is used everywhere. Latticed flooring in St. Petersburg in the metal construction markets has existed for more than 10 years. The production of latticed flooring grows by 10-15% every year.

Latticed flooring is called a lattice, which consists of cells. It has bearing and cover bands. Carrier strips have a parallel arrangement, all the load falls on them. Cover plates - serve for connection, they are located perpendicular to the bearing strips. Due to its cellular structure, the grating metal floor can withstand up to 700 tons. There are pressed and welded decking. There are no special technical differences and there is no mass in them, the pressed one includes the method of pressing the strips, and the welded method is carried out by the welding of the bearing strips.

Made of plastic, it has the property of maintaining its quality at high temperature changes. It is also waterproof and resistant to chemical attack. It is worth noting its dielectric properties, due to which it is not able to accumulate static electricity, which allows it to be used in a larger range.

Metal grating is one of the initial materials for the construction of fences, ceilings, staircases, ramps and stairs. It has become indispensable in the construction of supermarkets, shipbuilding, the oil industry, the service of a water canal, construction of apartment houses, and agriculture.

Aluminum, stainless, galvanized and black steel alloys are made of expanded plated steel. The sheets of such a floor are profiled using the cold cascade method. Its difference is a superficial anti-skid, therefore it is often used in urban construction, it is the main component of foundation pits, ventilation channels and sites. There are roofing and wall types of flooring.
