How to Order Flooring


1. Use the Quick Guide on page 1 and add the options for Material, Top Surface,
Treatment/Colours and Panel size (if required) on page 3.
or
2. Choose a pattern from page 2 and choose a Load Bar from the Load Deflection Table
on pages 6 & 7. Add the options on page 3.
3. Panel size suffix should be stated only if you want a stock panel.
For example, A325MPU2 for an untreated stock panel 1200 x 6000.
For Fabricated grating the code would read A325MPU.
4. Specify whether the grating is to be Banded or Cut To Size Only by referring to the Terminology on page 18.
5. Nominate the number of panels required and provide dimensions for width and span of each panel.
Span is always the last dimension.
6. Where large floor areas are required provide a drawing of the area to be covered showing:
a) Dimensions.
b) Span.
c) Section size, location of, and toe direction of the support steel.
d) Location and size of cut outs and removable areas.
e) Location of kick plate and nosings.
f) Indicate if penetrations are required to be split.
7. Specify fastener type if required. See pages 14 & 15.

Span Direction
• Grating and expanded metal needs to be supported in a specific way. The direction that the load bars run is the
important direction for grating and is referred to as the span.
• For expanded metal the span is in the direction of the strands or Long Way Mesh (LWM).
• Span is always the last dimension given when referencing a panel size.
• Grating and expanded metal has to be supported 90° to the span direction and does not require support on the
other sides.
995 10 995 10 995 10 1250

Example:
Shown here with standard panel widths of 995mm. Platform made
in standard stock width panels plus a make-up panel cut to the
1500

nearest load bar. The balance allows for gaps up to 10mm


between panels.
Order as:
4265 1/4265 x 1500 span (in 4 pieces)
Indicates span direction Make up panels less than 300mm are joined to the adjacent panel.
