Plate fields

Smaller plates set together to cover a large area, laid out to the requirement and reconfigurable later.

Installation

Mounted to the floor, or set into a pit.

Anchoring

Mechanical, chemical, or grouted in for heavier duty applications; the method is determined by the loading — static or dynamic.

Handling

Typically lifting eyes; lifting bar holes in the sides form part of the casting.

Specification notes.

Grade at size

Grade is a function of size, section and finishing method; quotations state the grade achievable at the specified size and section.

Extending later

Fields can be extended or reconfigured; interface feature provisions are designed in from the outset, and additions are manufactured to match the original field.

Civils

The foundation is designed for the task; imposed loads, pit construction and the interface with the finished floor are detailed for each installation. Carried out by us, or by your principal contractor working to our details.

Terminology

Also specified as cast iron floor plates, cast iron T-slotted floor plates, cast iron test beds or cast iron clamping plates.
