Platforms and catwalks in the processing industries
by A&B Process Systems Corp.
This white paper by A&B Process Systems Corp. explains platforms and catwalks in the processing industries. Accessibility to process systems, which include complex networks of tanks, vessels, pipes and valves, is critical to maintenance and repair. This paper discusses the materials needed for construction of platforms and catwalks such as decks, handrails with toe boards and stairways.
The paper describes the design and installation of personnel access systems and explains mezzanine floors, which may be regarded to be at an intermediate level. It is installed to increase useful floor space in a plant or production facility, particularly if the facility has high ceilings or roofs, yielding accessible headroom.
