Duct Covers, Gully Covers, Structural Flooring & Trench Covers

 

Hi Tech Construction

 

Dura Slab is a fibreglass structural flooring system manufactured using a unique construction technique that provides an incredible strength to weight ratio. Two high strength fibreglass solid plates are bonded to each side of a fibreglass mesh core material producing a composite flooring structure that is stiff, strong, light-weight, noncorrosive with an anti-slip walking surface.

New or Refurbishment Projects

 

Dura Slab is ideal for new constructions but is also well suited for refurbishment applications to replace old, heavy & cumbersome traditional flooring materials. The characteristics of Dura Slab make it more favourable than using steel, timber or concrete systems due to its lower weight, anti-slip surface, ease of installation and absence of maintenance.

 

Health and Safety Compliant

 

Dura Slab is alone in providing such a comprehensive list of Health and Safety benefits. Dura Slab has one of the highest degrees of slip resistance ever measured for a walking surface, especially in wet, oily and frosty conditions. It is a fraction of the weight of steel or concrete and can be supplied in 25kg or 50kg panel sizes. This allows a one or two man lift which complies with health and safety regulations. This means that routine inspections and repairs can be made easily by simply removing the appropriate panels. This obviates the need for expensive heavy lifting machinery in cases where access is limited.

 

British Standard Approved

 

Dura Slab is BS EN 124 approved. This European standard applies to gully tops and manhole tops for vehicular and pedestrian areas. In order to reach this approval a Dura Slab panel 74mm thickness and 1280mm span was subjected to a repeated load of 83.3kN. The test was continued to evaluate absolute failure level which occurred at 153kN.
