Class A Rail Substructure System for Non-Combustible Decking Systems

In the current ever-growing construction industry, the Class A Rail Substructure System for Non-Combustible Decking Systems has become an unparalleled solution for decking and paving applications. This system has revolutionised the way construction projects are executed, offering a plethora of advantages ranging from fire safety to cost-effectiveness.

Understanding Class A Rail Substructure System

The Class A Rail Substructure System is an innovative, high-performance platform designed for paving and decking projects. The system adheres to rigorous fire safety rules and regulations, thus offering a Class A1 fire rating. This fire rating is in line with EN 13501-1:2018 and fully compliant with BS 8579, making it the go-to choice for projects that demand top-tier fire safety measures.

Key Components of the System

The Class A Substructure System consists of two primary components: the adjustable Class A fire-rated pedestals and the aluminium rail joist system. These two components work in harmony to provide a solid, reliable platform for decking systems.

Adjustable Class A Fire Rated Pedestals

These pedestals are designed to provide stable, adjustable support for the aluminium rails/joists. They are fully compliant with BS 8579 and carry a Class A1 fire rating as per EN 13501-1:2018. Moreover, they are constructed from metal, ensuring zero plastic or rubber “gaskets” are used in the system.

Aluminium Rail Joist System

The aluminium rail joist system is specially profiled for seamless integration with the MetalPad EX pedestals. The system offers a fast, easy connection mechanism, and the substructure can be built to as low as 41mm. The system is highly versatile, with various height thresholds available to cater to the specific needs of each project.

Advantages of Class A Rail Substructure System

The Class A Rail Substructure System offers a multitude of advantages that set it apart from traditional construction methods.

Fire Safety Compliance

One of the primary advantages of the Class A Rail Substructure System is its impressive fire safety compliance. The system carries a Class A1 fire rating, making it fully compliant with stringent fire safety regulations such as BS 8579.

Stability and Durability

The system offers unparalleled stability and durability, thanks to its full metal substructure. This eliminates the risk of rotting, warping or rusting, ensuring long-term performance and reliability.

Cost-Effective

The Class A Rail Substructure System allows for greater spans between pedestals, leading to potential cost savings per square metre. This makes it a cost-effective choice for construction projects of all sizes.

Versatility and Flexibility

The system is highly versatile and can be adjusted to accommodate a range of height thresholds, making it suitable for a variety of project requirements.

Environmental Sustainability

The Class A Rail Substructure System is made from recycled aluminium, making it an environmentally friendly choice. Additionally, the system is fully recyclable, further reducing its environmental impact.

Applications of Class A Rail Substructure System

The Class A Rail Substructure System is designed for a wide range of applications, primarily in the construction industry. Its fire safety compliance and structural stability make it ideal for use in decking systems, paving projects, and even green roofs.

Decking Systems

In decking systems, the Class A Rail Substructure System provides a robust and stable platform for the deck boards. Its adjustable height and versatile design allow it to accommodate a range of decking materials, from bamboo and tropical hardwood to composite and non-combustible decking.

Paving Projects

For paving projects, the system offers a solid, reliable foundation for paving slabs or tiles. Its fire safety compliance and durability make it a preferred choice for paving applications in both residential and commercial projects.

Green Roofs

The Class A Rail Substructure System is also suitable for use in green roof applications. Its adjustable height and versatile design make it ideal for supporting the weight of vegetation and soil, while its fire safety compliance ensures the safety of the structure.

Conclusion

In conclusion, the Class A Rail Substructure System for Non-Combustible Decking Systems offers a robust, fire-safe, and cost-effective solution for decking and paving applications. Its impressive fire safety compliance, structural stability, and versatility make it an ideal choice for construction projects of all sizes.
