Bar Gratings are made from metal bars that cross each other or metal bars with filler strips welded to the metal bars. Metal Bar grating can be assembled with cross-pieces fitted into joints of the other members or welded together at the intersections. The outer edge of the grate is enclosed by a metal frame. Bearing bars are the stronger bars used in the grating. They cover the entire span or length of the grate. Filler strip or cross-bars range from equal size to much smaller than the bearing bars.
Metal grates are defined by several dimensions. The bars are specified by length, width, and depth. The entire grate itself has a length or span, width and depth. The grid of bars is also specified by the space between the bars and location of the filler or cross-bars.
