Welded Decking System |
-
Rigid solid deck that is comparable to concrete.
-
Does not require the annual maintenance required of concrete.
-
Proven System. This system has been around since the 1980's.
-
Eliminates trash build-up commonly found between the footboards of a standard designed grandstand and designed to minimize maintenance.
-
Eliminates insect infestation, stench, and possibility of fire created with litter and water shields.
-
Minimizes water leakage.
-
Slope of 1% directs water and clean-up to the front of the stand.
-
Reduces the amount of erosion under grandstand caused by standard decking designs.
-
No oil-canning of the deck as is commonly found in aluminum and steel plate decks.
-
All welded is in a controlled factory environment.
-
All joint sleeve inserts have a structural threshold far spanning comparable closed or interlocking decking systems.
-
Eliminates rattle commonly found between closed or interlocking decking systems.
-
Top-side welded seams create a top-side seal, thus eliminating channels or valleys. Prevents water from seeping into concealed crevices that will lead to splitting and cracking of deck members during the freeze/thaw cycle.
-
Drip edge on riser portion of system creates a shingle effect to push water toward the front of the structure.
-
Risers are mechanically fastened six inches on center creating a complete structural system. Also eliminates rattle between riser and horizontal deck members caused by heel kicking and foot stomping by spectators.
-
Designed to give you the option of riser mounted benches and chairs to aid in the cleaning of the grandstand.
-
All welds are factory cleaned prior to shipment to prevent those non-removeable black water stains.
-
Normal joint spacing of 37'6" versus the normal concrete joint spacing of 28' and 24' of other welded deck systems.
-
All fasteners on decking system are concealed. Avoids hole elongation of bolt through design on aluminum plate deck because of expansion and contraction.
-
Will not rust unlike galvanized steel plate decks.
