Riser Grillage Toe Boards

LoadingAdd to my saved searches

It is now common practice to install the riser grillages on buildings as soon or the same frame that the build Superstructure is installed.

This ensures that there are no falls from height present during the build from the time the superstructure is completed.

The introduction of Riser Grillage Toe Boards is the next level of building in good practice to ensure that any holes then made in these grillages by the trade teams utilising the riser grillage, can form a protective toe board to not only protect their works but also from follow on trades feet getting stuck or injury in the new voids around the services.
