| Steel structure platforms, also known as work platforms, come in various designs and offer comprehensive functionalities. Their most distinctive feature is the fully assembled structure, which is highly flexible and widely used in modern storage. These structures are typically made of steel beams, columns, and plates, connected by welds, screws, or rivets. The layout of the platform structure includes: 1. Meeting the requirements of process production operations, ensuring sufficient clearances for passage and operation. The general clear height should not be less than 1.8M, and protective railings should be set around the platform, typically 1M in height. When the platform height exceeds 2M, a toe board of 100-150mm in height should be installed under the protective railings. A ladder for access should be provided, with a minimum width of 600mm. 2. Determining the plane dimensions, elevation, beam grid, and column layout of the platform structure, in addition to meeting usage requirements, the arrangement of beams and columns should also consider the location of equipment loads and other significant concentrated loads on the platform, as well as the suspension of large-diameter industrial pipelines. 3. The layout of the platform structure should strive for economic and reasonable design, with direct and clear force transmission. The beam grid should be appropriate for its span. When the beam span is large, the spacing should also be increased. Make full use of the allowable span of the deck plates, and rationally arrange the beam grid to achieve better economic results. |
