Span+
Lightweight Rafter-Mounted HVAC Platforms

ALLOWS TRUSSES TO SPAN GREATER DISTANCES BETWEEN RAFTERS

Overview

A twist on traditional structural platforms, Con-form Group’s Span+ platform is a strong, secure and lightweight solution, ideal for when surface mounted platforms aren’t an option.

Generations ahead of traditional platform structures, Con-form Group’s modular, strong and lightweight HVAC platform design distributes loads evenly. It is ideal for existing roofs where the purlins simply do not have the capacity to adequately support the equipment on a purlin mounted platform.

Essential for any roof mounting situation, great or small, new or existing, where the client would like to realise instant savings over costly traditional mounting.

Individually engineered to suit your requirements. Our in-house engineering team analyse total weights of equipment, including live loads and safety factors, to produce a system that satisfies your site specific needs.

Perfect for a wide range of industrial applications including:

Housing condensors and other HVAC and plant machinery
Long spanning airconditioning, refrigeration and ventilation machinery
Retrofitting mechanical equipment to existing roofs
Upgrades to smoke exhaust systems

Span+ Range FAQS

What is a HVAC&R Plant Platform?

A HVAC&R plant platform is a structural system designed to support HVAC&R (Heating, Ventilation, Air Conditioning & Refrigeration) units and plant equipment on rooftops or similar locations. These platforms are crucial for the safe and efficient installation, operation and maintenance of HVAC&R systems. They are typically engineered to handle specific load requirements and to distribute the weight of the HVAC&R system evenly, thus reducing the structural stress on the building. Additionally, these platforms significantly reduce the platform weight compared to traditional structural steel systems, making them a practical choice for a wide range of applications.

What advantages does Span+ have over traditional structural steel platforms?

Con-form Groups Span+ HVAC deck system is a unique and modern take on the traditional structural steel platform. Span+ is 85% lighter than its traditional counterpart, is 5 times faster to install and can span distances of over 10.5m. Learn more here.
