INDUSTRY COMPONENT

Support Ribs

Support ribs are structural components that reinforce drainage grids to prevent deformation under load.

Component Specifications

Definition
Support ribs are engineered structural elements integrated into drainage grid systems to provide mechanical reinforcement, distribute operational loads evenly, prevent sagging or buckling, and maintain grid geometry under static and dynamic conditions. They enhance structural integrity and longevity in industrial drainage applications.
Working Principle
Support ribs function by transferring applied loads from the drainage grid surface to the supporting framework through their rigid structural design, reducing stress concentrations and preventing plastic deformation or failure of the grid under operational pressures.
Materials
Typically manufactured from corrosion-resistant materials such as stainless steel (e.g., AISI 304, 316), galvanized steel, or engineered polymers (e.g., polyethylene, polypropylene) with high tensile strength and durability for harsh environments.
Technical Parameters
  • Height 20-100 mm
  • Spacing 150-300 mm
  • Thickness 3-10 mm
  • Load Capacity Up to 5000 N/m²
  • Corrosion Resistance ISO 9227 salt spray test compliant
Standards
ISO 9001, DIN 19580, ASTM A240
