Product catalog summary
Introduction
Permastruct FRP Marina Decking is a premier solution for marine decking, known for its innovative, low-maintenance, and high-quality fibre-reinforced materials. It is tailored for large-scale and commercial marine applications, offering exceptional strength, durability, and anti-slip safety features.
Raw Material Characteristics
FRP (Fibreglass-reinforced plastic) consists of polyester resin and glass fibres. Common resin types include Isopthalic, Orthopthalic, Vinylester, and Phenolic, with the first two being the most prevalent. FRP is lightweight, strong, anti-slip, fire retardant, non-corrosive, non-conductive, easy to install, low maintenance, and UV stable.
Material Properties
Key properties include a density of 1200 kg/m³ for resin and 2100 kg/m³ for glass fibre, tensile strength of 55 MPa for resin and 207 MPa for glass fibre, and a maximum operating temperature of 140°C for resin and 200°C for glass fibre.
Standard Profiles
Permastruct FRP Marina Decking is available in various profiles such as Grating Mini Mesh, Micro Mesh, Standard Grating, and Solid Top Grating, each with specific dimensions, weight, and open area percentages for different applications like marine slipways, walkways, and heavy-duty decking.
Compcrete
Compcrete is a novel decking material that replicates concrete's appearance and feel but offers enhanced durability and reduced maintenance costs. It can be customized to project specifications.
Load Tables
The document includes detailed load tables for different grating types, indicating the uniform distributed load (UDL) and point load capacities for various spans, essential for engineers to ensure structural compliance.
Conclusion
Permastruct FRP Marina Decking provides a versatile and robust solution for marine environments, combining aesthetic appeal with practical benefits like low maintenance and high durability. The product range is adaptable to various applications, ensuring a perfect fit for any marine decking project.
Product Overview
The document outlines specifications for Permastruct FRP Marina Decking, emphasizing its use in environments such as footways, malls, and carriageways, and its suitability for pedestrian, cycle, and commercial vehicle traffic.
Specifications
The product features tensile strength (220 MPa), modulus of elasticity (21 GPa), flexural strength (280 MPa), compressive strength (145 MPa), and voltage breakdown (18k Volts/mm). It has a density of 2100 kg/m³ and a thermal expansion factor of 13 x 10 mm/mm °C. The water absorption rate is 0.45 x 24 hrs, with an operational temperature range of -100°C to 200°C.
Standards and Compliance
The product complies with standards such as ASTM D1037-93 for mechanical properties, ASTM D149 for voltage breakdown, and ASTM E84 for flammability resistance. It also meets ISO 9001 for quality management and MOAT 22 for weatherability.
Manufacturing Tolerances
Specific tolerances are maintained for standard panel size, cut panel size, thickness, mesh pattern, and color/surface finish, ensuring manufacturing precision.
Additional Features
The product offers an anti-slip surface (R13 rating) and can be manufactured in any RAL color, though the color range is limited for Class 0 fire-rated products.
