Hi-Tech Computing FacilityFibrelite Replaces Trench Cover for Global Leader in Hi-TechComputing
Fibre optic cabling which needs protecting
The rapid growth of content-heavy mobile applications and cloud-computing means that the demand for efficient and securecomputer hardware to store data is growing exponentially everyyear. These facilities have many miles of fibre optic cabling alongwith environment and supply cables, in pre-cast concretetrenches which must be protected yet easily accessible andidentifiable.
Fibrelite’s trench panels are far lighter than the traditional metalcovers making them the ideal choice for this project. Thesecovers can be safely and quickly removed by hand with Fibrelite’sergonomically designed lifting handle, allowing impaired sectionsto be swiftly replaced – or more cables added, if the facilitydecides to incorporate extension plans into their new-build.Fibrelite was also selected due to their ability to deliver within thetight completion deadline.
Customizable
Fibrelite’s in-house technical department and flexible toolingallows them to design and manufacture custom covering systemsto suit the individual, in a wide range of widths, depths and loadratings, all the way up to 201,600 pounds, a first of its kind in theindustry.
Fibrelite covers can also be provided in virtually any color with nofading, for identification of specific underground services, or toblend in with its surroundings. Covers can also be made withcustomer’s logo or other branding.
Pre-Cast Concrete Trenches– HS20
Sophisticated Highly Specialized Material
Fibrelite is the world leading manufacturer of fibre reinforcedplastic (FRP) composite manhole covers and trench covers. Thissophisticated and highly specialized material is quickly becomingrecognized as the more effective modern alternative to traditionalmaterials such as heavy steel and concrete.
Key Benefits for this project over the moretraditional, technologically inferior metalcovers:
Lightweight for easy and safe manual removalCustomizableLoad ratings from up to 201,600 poundsChemically inert and corrosion resistantAnti-slip/skid properties
Fibrelite trench covers installedNo Compromise on Performance
Upon request, Fibrelite can provide custom solutions. This meansthat the panel dimensions, internal stiffeners and fibrearchitecture can be altered to optimize the performance of eachpanel based on project specific design criteria.
