GRP ladder and tray

Load characteristics

Coefficient of safety > 1.7 (in accordance with IEC 61537) this data is

given for ladders coupled with splice plates and bolts.

The deflection values are

measured with the position of

the junction between 2 ladders at

a distance L/5 from a support. If

this distance is not respected, it is

necessary to raise the deflection

values by about 30% when fully

loaded.

Series UL load diagram: supporting distances from 2 to 5m.

For 100mm and 150mm wall height refer to Marshall-Tufflex.

Localised loads

To be able to compare this to a uniformly distributed load it is necessary

to double the value of the localised load. Example: A 60kg local load at

the centre of a ladder with 3m of support distance. Equivalent load: 60 x

2 = 120kg uniformly distributed along 3m (ie 40kg/m).
