Riveted Bar Grating
Product Overview
Riveted gratings are manufactured by cold press riveting straight bearing bars to crimped rectangular flat bars. The oldest form of grating, riveted products offer superior resistance to impact, fatigue, and repetitive loads.
Riveted gratings are ideal for applications where high strength and stiffness are required. Bridge decking is a heavy duty form of riveted grating.
Riveted Bar Grating Details
Design
Riveted gratings are available in carbon steel, 6000 series aluminum, and 300 series stainless steel. These products are manufactured with bearing bars spaced either 1-1/8” or 3/4″ apart and the standard rivet spacing is 7 inches on center. Optional close rivet spacing of 3-1/2” on center is also available.
Standard serration includes serration of the reticuline bars which are raised slightly above the top plane of the bearing bars during assembly. Alternatively, users may specify 100% serrated where both the bearing bars and cross members are provided with serration.
