REB Grillage & Pile Foundations

Cable management is integrated into the frame to simplify installation and allow good access to the cabling from the top of the platform.

FLI REB grillages consistantly have smaller footprints than consultancy submitted designs.
Our standardised products reduce design time and require fewer piled foundations, saving RRV shifts.

Case Study: FLI design savings over consultancy design.

REB for Cambridge

25% smaller footprint than consultancy submitted design.

1 complete shift was saved on foundation installation as only 8 piles were used instead of the consultancies 10.

2 further shifts were saved installing the smaller, simpler frame, walkway and steps.

Another shift was saved as cable management is integrated into the frame.

Low Cost Bespoke Solutions

Some sites need bespoke platforms. This can increase design lead times and installation complexity. 
FLI's off-the-shelf products with their standardised fastenings, frames and fittings are used to create bespoke assemblies without a significant escallation in cost.
Screw piles and hand install pile or kentledge foundations enable installation a long way from the track, on steep slopes or on congested sites, where traditional concrete is a less workable option.
Lightweight piled solutions are able to bridge difficult ground or existing services, simplifying the solution required.

Refuge Platforms

FLI's refuge platforms can be installed either as fully assembled units, or 'piece small' for green zone working to reduce possessions. Green zone working can extend to the foundations using FLI's hand installed screw piles, greatly reducing overall costs.
