The above information is based on the use of standard pedestals. Finished floor heights outside the ranges shown are available using non-standard pedestals.
The requirement for stringers shown is based on standard indicative guidelines. The use of stringers is dependant on not only the finished floor height but also the structural requirements along with individual project requirements
The use of DRF600 and FDEB 38 as extra heavy grade raised floor systems will require the use of bolt-on stringers regardless of the finished floor height.
Snap-on stringers will provide additional lateral stability whereas bolt-on stringers will provide additional structural performance in addition to increase lateral stability.
