The Modular Platform System provides a swift and cost-effective solution to platform construction -even in the most challengingof site conditions Standardised, lightweight components mean thesystem can be installed fast and without lengthy possessions. The cantilevered design allows the support structure to be built behind the 1200 mm line in a green zone. Galvanised steel and high quality pre-finished components ensure a robust and long-lasting system that is suitable for all platform profiles including curved or tapering platforms. Key Design features of the Modular Platform System include: - Standardised hollow section components
Galvanised steel provide a column and beam structure to support the platform deck. Cantilevered design ensures majority green zoneinstallation. Telescopic platform feet and arms mean the system is uniquely adjustable in all planes. Lightweight components reduce foundation impact and avoid the need for costly and time-consuming ground treatment measures. Each component requires only a one or two person lift. Modular design enables a dry build using sustainable construction techniques. High quality finish to all components contributes to system robustness and longevity.
Key Feature Standardised, pre-finished components minimising installation time and providing built-inadaptability for future growth and changes. Off-site design and manufacture – Minimising track access requirements and enabling accurate prediction of installation costs and timescales. On-site health & safety benefits –The reduced time frame on site, single trade platform assembly and majority green zone work all contribute to a statistically safer and reduced risk work environment.
