Standard Decking

Download Details

Standard products are decked with Massaranduba hardwood boards.

Enhanced Standard Decking

Metallic Decking

This can be either steel or aluminium grating. Unlike most composites this material can be recycled when the product is dismantled. It also allows light penetration. The most common use is where a heavy duty use is anticipated. It is not recommended for bridges.

Composite Boards

These comprise a composite of polyethylene and wood. They are designed to replicate the appearance of a timber deck although they react more to changes of temperature than other materials. Composite materials cannot be easily recycled.

Re-cycled Polyethylene

This is supplied in various size of boards and can be recycled ( albeit ) to a lower grade polymer at the end of the product life. It is most affected by temperature and requires extra support and special fixings.

Fibreglass Gratings

Fibreglass decking is a composite material supplied in sheet form. It has very good slip resistance and in some forms good light penetration. It is often used for bridges or areas of decking where slipping is seen as a hazard. It is not good for use with bare feet and cannot be easily recycled.

Resin Coated Panels

This type of decking is in common use for lorry beds and public access areas such as air bridges. It is often used for bridges for its good non-slip properties. As a composite material it cannot be easily recycled.

Interfloat - Specification

The Interfloat pontoon system is a modular design that is suitable for use in coastal marinas or exposed inland waters.

Structure

The pontoons have a reinforced concrete structure with integral expanded buoyancy. Reinforcement near the surface is galvanised.

Pontoons can be supplied with textile or painted protection to the base of the polystyrene. Alternative heavier duty treatments can be supplied where required.

Connections

The units are connected end to end with flexible connections compromising M37 galvanised bolts and rubber bushes. Units may be connected side to end by prior design.

Moorings

The pontoons may be fixed either by pile or flexible moorings. 4 No. mooring points with access from the deck are built into the structure.

Service Ducts

Continuous top access service ducts may be built into all units down both sides. Ducts are fitted with anodished aluminium covers as standard.

Fenders

Walkways are fitted as standard with 145x70mm softwood fenders.

Lifting Points

For safe handling built in lifting points are included in all units
