Suspended Platforms

A facade is only finished when someone can reach it again. Weston engineers the access system with the envelope, so the building is cleaned, inspected and repaired without improvising a rig on the roof.

  • Permanent roof systemsRoof cars and davit systems that stay with the building for the life of the facade.
  • Temporary platformsSuspended platforms for construction, repair and recladding campaigns.
  • Curved and inclined facadesEnvelopes that are not a flat plane need a platform geometry designed for that envelope.
  • Anchor designTie-back and anchor points resolved with the structural engineer, on the structural drawings.
  • Operator safetySecondary fall-arrest lines, overload cut-out and controlled descent independent of the main system.
  • Access planningA maintenance plan that says how every square metre of the facade is reached, and how often.

Platform geometry follows the envelope, so this line is specified from the facade drawings. Send the elevations and the roof plan and Weston returns the access system and its anchor layout.
