1.
Maximum floor width = 1200 mm
2.
The GMA sits, and is positioned so as to transfer load through 2 beams.
3.
All materials are Grade 300 Mpa or better (AS3678 & AS1163)
4.
Floor is fully loaded at 2.5 Kpa (typical design load) - Is equivalent to 255 kg per m^2
5.
Floor mesh and handrails considered to be approx 50 kg per square metre.
6.
A 1.25x factor has been applied to the loads, for error in estimations of operators.
7.
It’s assumed the beams are full restrained, buckling has not been considered.
8.
15kN fall arrest anchorage load has been used to one side. This means 2 anchorages can be used on the same device on either side.

(Platform structure dimensions for steel beams)
The following tables can be used to ensure the steel dimensions of the supporting structure are
adequate for the GMA to be used.
