Case Study
Fiberglass Grating as Screened Fences
CASE STUDY In 2015, Pipex px ® worked with London Underground to create an Anti-Trespass and Security Barrier for the transportation sector in Essex, United Kingdom. In an effort to protect people and railway tracks, London Underground needed a fabricated and nonconductive screen for the Barking Flyover. KN Network Services and Pipex px ® worked together to design a fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) system which allowed air movement while ensuring limited visibility. The barrier system was manufactured from EXTREN ® FRP profiles and I-6000 DURAGRID ® pultruded fiberglass grating. Outside of the transportation sector, many of Strongwell’s case studies have shown that fiberglass molded and pultruded grating can be successfully used in architectural and industrial applications.
