INTRODUCTION

FACTA LOADING CRITERIA


The Fabricated Access Cover Trade Association (FACTA) standard is recognised throughout the industry as the only standard to promote steel and composite access covers and frames. The FACTA standard enables the customer to specify confidently fabricated access covers to their most suited load requirements for any given application, with the assurance that the products are fit for purpose, being designed and tested in accordance with guidelines detailed in the most recent structural European codes. The standard has been constructed by banding the load bearing capabilities of the covers into a range of classifications, which are based on specific areas of application.

Further information on the FACTA standard can be obtained by contacting the Fabrication Access Cover Trade Association on: Tel: 01827 52337. Fax: 01827 310827.

Our continual process of product development dictates that the PAM range is constantly evolving to meet the requirements of an ever more demanding market place. We consider ourselves as the provider of the total market solution, not just adhering to the basic standard but surpassing it with product features that aid in the handling operation associated with access cover removal and below ground equipment retrieval. Manual Handling Operations Regulations The code of practice confirms that the risks involved with handling access covers increases when the operative has to twist, stoop, push or pull the load. It also suggests maximum load limits for various body positions during the lift. Specific products within the PAM portfolio adhere to the principles outlined within these regulations. Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations (LOLER) This regulation is unique to maintaining operator safety at the various stages of equipment retrieval from an open chamber. At SaintGobain Pipelines, we recognise that there is a need to go beyond just satisfying the requirements for efficient cover removal, but also provide a solution that enables the operator to actually retrieve equipment safely as well. Construction (Design and Management) Regulations The PAM design team are an integral part of eliminating or reducing the hazards faced by the operatives carrying out maintenance or cleaning work in the field. We design and manufacture our new products with a duty of care in mind to protect the operative where possible during access cover removal and below ground equipment retrieval.

PRODUCT LONGEVIT Y GUIDE H OT D I P G A LVA N I S I N G


Standards All PAM steel access covers and associated framework comply with BS EN ISO 1461 (1999) (which replaced BS 729 as the basic standard covering hot dip galvanising of iron and steel articles). The Galvanising Process Advances in the process since its introduction over 150 years ago, have promoted the use of steel in demanding structural and engineering applications which includes steel access covers and associated framework. The hot dip galvanising process provides steel with maximum protection through a metallurgically bonded, tough coat of zinc. Corrosion rates for zinc are very low and are linear for any given environment. Galvanising works by sacrificial action - the tough zinc coating corroding and sacrificing itself in preference to the steel. In the event of accidental damage to the coating, surrounding elements of zinc are deposited on the steel, resealing it from the atmosphere and stopping corrosion. In comparison, with paint coatings additional protection would have to be applied immediately after the damage occurred.

Hot dip galvanised coating


Galvanic coating is formed. Zinc around damage corrodes and corrosion products precipitate onto steel surface and protect it. Steel is also protected because it is cathodic in reaction to zinc coating

Paint coating
Steel rusts where the paint film is damaged. Rust creeps under the paint film which is lifted up from the steel surface. Corrosion continues until the damage has been repainted.

Product Life Cycle The thicker the zinc coating, the longer the life of the steel product. A linear rule dictates that the thicker the section of steel, the thicker and better the zinc coating should be.
Thickness of steel section Local coating (min) g/m2 m Mean coating (min) g/m2 m

6mm 3mm, but < 6mm 1.5mm, but < 3mm < 1.5mm

70 55 45 35

610 505 395 325

85 70 55 45

However, the specific erosion performance of the zinc is dependent on the geographic atmospheric and environmental conditions affecting the particular installation location.

INTRODUCTION

IN STALL AT ION ADVICE


GUIDELINES SHOULD ALWAYS BE FOLLOWED The structural opening and bedding of any access cover must be sufficiently strong. A frame that is not properly supported may distort under load and this in turn may cause seal failure which results in the cover becoming unstable. PRE-DELIVERY CHECKS Before despatch, all units are inspected for alignment and dimensional accuracy and all handles and stays are checked. It is important that no component is modified without consultation with Saint-Gobain Pipelines. LOCKING SCREWS All locking screws should be cleaned and lightly greased.
We accept no responsibility for the fluid or gas tightness of any cover not specifically designed to be so.

FILLING OF RECESSED COVERS It is important to always fill covers in their frames (ensuring that the frames do not distort). Please note recessed covers rely on the appropriate grade of concrete infill to achieve the designated level of performance. Avoid spillage of concrete into key slots, bolt housings and the edge gap between cover and frame. SEALING Once the infill has hardened, the covers should be removed and the seating and seals cleaned. If the seals require filling with grease etc., it should be done at this stage, BEFORE traffic is permitted.

TWIN/TRIPLE-LEAF COVERS In instances where a removable sealing support bar is supplied in single or double seal units please ensure that the component is kept in place at all times to effect the seal (with sealing compound or grease where appropriate). MULTIPLE-LEAF COVERS Multiple leaf assemblies can be supplied with removable beams and end-support brackets. If seals are specified, a removable sealing support bar (which should be bedded in an appropriate grease or compound to ensure effective sealing), would be supplied. CONTINUOUS DUCTING 1. All individual components are permanently marked with identification numbers.

2. The complete system should be laid out, where applicable, as shown in the construction drawing, with component numbers corresponding to the drawing layout. Hand-tighten all locking screws (if specified) with any sealing bars in position.

3. Position frame centrally over duct, removing and replacing covers one at a time only when necessary, using spacer clips where applicable.

4. BEFORE fixing any section of frames permanently, check alignment of complete system when laid out.

5. Position frame and mark drilling holes for anchor bolts, where applicable.

6. Set frame to required level with packing, adjusting with securing bolts untightened (where applicable).

7. Check level, adjusting packing as necessary.

8. If grout or bedding compound is specified, apply under entire frame. Position spacer clips provided (where applicable), to maintain cover and frame clearance at 2mm.

9. Tighten anchor bolts, checking height and level, ensuring not to overtighten bolts as this could result in distortion of frame.

10. All frame joints should be set to the same horizontal and vertical alignment and when covers are in place, all surfaces should be flush.

11. When grout or bedding compound is fully hardened, ensure that covers lift out of frame, before screeding or concreting. Unfilled, recessed covers should always be filled in position within the frame.

12. Ensure that locking bolt holes, key slots and seals are fully protected when screeding or concreting, particularly with recessed covers.

13. To ensure perfect alignment, it is advisable, whenever practicable, to leave spacer clips in position during screeding around frames.

Easy slide pivoting access chamber cover and frame. Galvanised to BS EN ISO 1461 (1999).

During the cover opening sequence the operative is: i) Constantly shielded from the open chamber. ii) Able to maintain a stable foot position. iii) Able to leave the safety barrier in place during equipment maintenance. Equipment only needs to be hoisted 300mm above the open chamber before the cover can be closed to provide a safe working platform Quick-assembly post and chain safety barrier When fully open the cover is retained in position by a foot operated safety catch Internal mechanisms, hinges etc., for debris-free, tamper-proof performance Power cables need to be isolated but not disconnected during maintenance as an integral flap in the frame allows the cables to pass through when the cover is in a closed position

THE GUARDSMAN
P R O D U C T R E G U L AT I O N C O M P L I A N C E
The GUARDSMAN successfully controls almost all of the major hazards associated with equipment retrieval from the open chamber. This was achieved by carrying out a risk assessment analysis under The management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1992, which requires all employers to assess the risks to their employees at work. Saint-Gobain Pipelines identified the following hazards common with this activity: - Falls from height - Lifting operations - Confined spaces - Trip hazards Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations (1998) LOLER The GUARDSMAN is believed to be the only cover in its class to satisfy the LOLER code of practice for working platforms. Manual Handling Operation Regulations (1992) The GUARDSMAN eliminates the need to uncomfortably stoop or twist while operating the cover. Construction (Design and Management) Regulations (1994) The GUARDSMAN has been designed to reduce the hazards faced by operatives carrying out maintenance work on retrieved equipment.

Saint-Gobain Pipelines cannot eliminate the confined space but the unique opening action means that access equipment can be positioned before the cover is opened.
