The pedestals are made up of:
- A square baseplate of galvanized steel.
- A steel galvanised column welded to the baseplate.
- A die-cast aluminium head.
- A locking head nut for the adjustment of pedestal height.
Standard Pedestal
The column is a 18 mm diameter threaded rod of galvanised steel.
The head has a suficient lenght to adjust the height + or - 20mm.
Ridges molded on the head allow a positive location of the panels.
Pedestal for finished height higher than 80 0mm
The column is a 22 x 22 x 2 mm square hollow section of galvanized
steel.
The base, the head and the locknut are the same as for the standard
pedestal.
Pedestal for low finished height
The column is 16 mm diameter threaded rod of galvanized steel.
The threaded head is used as an adjusting nut and allows an adjustment
of + or - 7 mm. The panels lay directly on conductive pads.
These pedestals allow a minimum finished height of 70 to 80 mm.
Installation:
The pedestals are bonded to the concreete by way of a special adhesive,
or mechanically fixed.
In the case of pedestals laying on structural steel profiles, the
baseplate can be welded to them.
An earthing copper strap can be easily snapped on the baseplate.
