Many advantages compared with FRP Grating

Know The Multiple Advantages And Importance Of
FRP Gratings

• Fibre Reinforced Plastic or FRP Grating is a
  composite material made by blending the matrix of
  fibreglass and resin. There are two types of FRP
  gratings, namely moulded FRP gratings and
  pultruded FRP grating. FRP gratings have a number
  of applications such as overhead walkways,
  ladders, handrails, guardrails, platforms,
  stairways, machine housings and protective
  shielding. FRP gratings are commonly used in
  industrial environments and offshore
  installations.
• There are many advantages associated with FRP
  gratings. Some of them have been discussed here.

1. Superior Strength to Weight Ratio

• Weight of FRP Grating is 1/4th of steel and 2/3rd
  of aluminium while specific gravity is 1.8. Light
  weight makes it easy to carry and install which
  not only increases the speed of construction but
  also reduces the labour costs. There is no
  compromise in strength because FRP has high
  strength to weight ratio which makes it capable
  of withstanding even vehicle load.

2. Low maintenance

• FRP grating is highly resistant against rotting
  and corrosion and maintains structural integrity
  efficiently. It is also very durable. Thus, there
  is no need for sandblasting, scraping, painting
  and other maintenance operations. Simple washing
  using a pressure washer is sufficient for FRP
  grating. The negligible need for maintenance is a
  major advantage.

3. Long life

• FRP grating withstands weathering, degradation
  and aging effectively. It also tolerates harsh
  environment well. Thus, FRP grating has a long
  service life even in installations having harsh
  environments such as chemical factories. Long
  service life means there is no need to replace
  FRP gratings for very long periods of time. Cost
  of removing, disposing and replacing damaged or
  corroded steel gratings is eliminated if steel is
  replaced with FRP.

4. Slip Resistance and Non-Conduction

• FRP grating has a high friction factor which
  prevents it from becoming slippery even when oil
  or any other liquid falls on it. Thus, it is much
  better than steel especially in wet environments.
  Slip resistance increases the safety factor for
  workers by preventing accidents due to slipping.
  FRP grating does not conduct electricity and has
  very low thermal conductivity. Thus, there is no
  danger of electricity developing inside FRP
  grating and posing a danger to the workers. Low
  thermal conductivity ensures that it never
  becomes very hot.

5. Fire Resistance

• FRP grating has a flame spread of 25 or less
  which makes it suitable for explosive and
  inflammable environments. This is a beneficial
  feature because the inferno would not spread
  through FRP gratings during fire mishap.

6. Easy to install

• FRP grating is light in weight which makes it
  easy to install since no lifting equipment is
  required for the same. In fact, the total weight
  of the structural support is reduced by using FRP
  gratings which make the task much easier.

7. Easy to Work

• FRP grating has high elasticity. High elasticity
  makes it more comfortable platform to stand and
  work because less fatigue is generated in the
  legs and back.

8. Economical

• The initial cost of FRP grating is higher than
  steel. But its low maintenance and a long service
  life which can be even 20 years, makes the
  overall cost much more economical. Information on
  FRP Grating molding
• Roving fiberglass and resin (around 35) are
  layer by layer thoroughly mounted in the mold to
  achieve the desired thickness and panel size.
  After that, the panel will be removed from the
  mould to heal the appropriate temperature.
  Because of the Square mesh pattern of FRP Molded
  Grating it provides a substantial two-way load
  capability. They do not erode like steel grinding
  and is along these lines utilized in destructive
  conditions to lessen support costs.
