KENT STAINLESS Manhole Product Development History In 1982 Kent Stainless set up as a general steel fabricator making components for other companies to their drawings requirements. By 1990, we had begun designing our range of stainless steel drainage. Ireland already had a very large Beef, Dairy and Beverage industry all of which required stainless steel drainage. The major growth sector soon afterwards was the Pharmaceutical Sector and Cork in Ireland became one of 3 worldwide centres of excellence for Pharmaceutical production. These drainage projects brought with them requirements for us...

KENT STAINLESS Understanding Loading Fabricated Access Covers and Loadings A fabricated cover is a lot more than just a manhole cover. Unlike a manhole cover, fabricated covers fulfil a huge variety of applications both internal and external. Fabricated covers can be made in a variety of materials and offer flexibility of design that a cast manhole cover cannot. Bespoke designs, short production runs and even single covers are all possible. With this in mind we use analysis and calculation based upon the base wheel load to establish a calculated serviceability load. Designed within the...

KENT STAINLESS This standard does not apply for gratings as part of prefabricated drainage channels according to EN 1433. This standard does not apply for floor and roof gullies in buildings which are specified in EN 1253-1. Fabricated access covers are designed for Slow Moving Wheel Loads ONLY, so there shouldn't be a need for C250 or D400 fabricated covers. B125 is adequate for slow moving wheel loads - road legal FATCA C and FACTA D could be used in areas subject to a higher frequency of slow moving traffic, these would be a lot more economical than C250 and D400 covers. C250 and D400...

KENT STAINLESS FACTA Kent Stainless are members of the Fabricated Access Covers Trade Association (FACTA). We operate and adhere to FACTA specifications which came into effect on 1st March 2013. The specification was prepared by the members of the FACTA Technical Committee and currently 15 major companies which represent the majority of supply in this sector have signed up to the standards. FACTA focuses on wheel loadings and base their test loads and calculations on the European standards for structural steelwork. For covers over 1m clear opening please see BS9124 FACTA loadings can be...

KENT STAINLESS This by no means limits them to that use, and often a pedestrian cover can be designed to take 44 tonne vehicles with 5 tonne pneumatic wheel load The engineering team employ SolidWorks Simulation allowing the engineers to carry out structural simulation on parts and assemblies with finite element analysis (FEA) while they work to improve and validate performance and reduce the need for costly prototypes or design changes later on.

KENT STAINLESS How To Specify To create your own Specification Clause please, simply choose the options you require to suit the product you need.
