Sheet metal profile grating

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sheet metal profile gratings are canted and / or profiled components with different surface structures. The sheet metal profile gratings are available with a closed or permeable surface depending on the profile. The materials used are aluminum, steel, hot-dip galvanized steel and stainless steel.

Further information

Sheet metal profile gratings complete the product range of the well-known, accessible metallic floor coverings. Metal planks are often misdiagnosed as gratings , however designated, differ from what is illustrated by a higher quality in general and in particular the slip resistance as well as by their higher capacity, better drainage effect, etc. So metal planks are predominantly / standard C-shaped profile and edged components which are characterized by stable and safe step and stand areas.

Advantages of sheet metal profile gratings

  • high load-bearing capacity in the longitudinal direction
  • high stability with little use of material
  • Thanks to the perforations embossed upwards and downwards, dirt and liquids can be quickly displaced and drained off
  • high slip resistance and surefootedness thanks to the non-slip surface with relief knobs and recessed openings
  • Light and air permeability
  • highest surefootedness even in public areas.

Use of sheet metal profile gratings

Sheet metal profile gratings can be used wherever z. B. with slide-promoting substances (fats, oils, etc.) is worked. The use of sheet metal profile gratings prevents the direct environment - e.g. Example in civil and civil engineering , floors and stages, in plant and vehicle construction or in the scaffolding - is transformed into dangerous ones. Also for security-relevant facilities - such as B. a flood walkway or an escape staircase - sheet metal profile gratings are the best solution. Sheet metal profile gratings can also take on other functions and are also used as facade elements. The Dutch cepezed architects designed the facade of a data center of the Datacentergroup with sheet metal profile gratings. The architect Daniel Libeskind used aluminum sheet metal profile gratings as facade cladding during the renovation of the Military History Museum of the Bundeswehr in Dresden. As facade elements, metal profile gratings protect against heavy rain, reduce heat and UV effects, defy strong winds and have a sound-absorbing effect.

Areas of application

  • in civil engineering
  • in plant and vehicle construction
  • in architecture
  • as floor and stage covering
  • in scaffolding
  • in public traffic zones as safety gratings, e.g. B. as flood walkways etc.
