FRP Structure – Potential Eradicators of Accidents



The term Stair nosing refers to an anti-slip mechanism that is invented in order to reduce the accidents and unwanted situations that arise at a workplace. Stairs are an integral part of the construction and also a place prone to accidents on most occasions. There are several factors that account for the popularity of Stair- Nosing. The access system is easy to be installed in any environment and these make sure that individual is benefited with the application. There are several positive and distinctive characteristic of the products that makes it stand out of the crowd. 



These are important structures that could be included in the construction of various workplace and domestic buildings. Multi-faceted benefits of this FRP structure make it an important part of the buildings. Robust nature along with the variations in which it is available makes the structures popular among the mass. Including structures like Stairnosing in the building frequented by visitors and employees on a regular basis reduces the accidents caused due to trips and falls. 

Following are few factors that make these potential structures:-

1.    Increases Visibility:

While manufacturing the products bright colors are used that can be visible even in low light condition. With the increased visibility people can easily make out the contour of the stairs. Without stair nosing, it is difficult to understand the steps in darkness which ignites the risks of accidents. 

2.    Increases Surface Area:

These Structures are installed on the edges of the stairs thus increase the surface area of the stairs. This implies that the surface area for placement of foot is increased as well. Thus, while treading on the Stairs one get an additional support for placement of foot. The other important advantage of the structure is that these contain the positive property of protecting the edge of the stairs as well. 

 
 FRP Ladders – Important Structures for Workplace:

The other potential structure that one could use in commercial works is the Fiberglass ladders. The structures are capable of withstanding extreme pressure and can survive the extremes of environment. These are crafted in a way that they do not undergo any changes when subjected to harsh environments of petrochemical and marine industries. Apart from being cost-effective, these are also impending structures that ensure safety of the workers working in it. 

Since Fibreglass Ladders are non-conductors of electricity these could be used in industries that engage in working with that of the electricity and cables that carry high voltage electricity. The introduction of these structures ensures the safety of a worker and save the employer of the economic crunch that could have cropped up due to claims of death and loss.
