FAQs:

Q. What is the maximum permissible load for the 450mm High Capacity Aluminium Beams?
A. The Altrad Generation Aluminium 450mm Beam has been specifically designed to provide the highest possible UDL. The unique design allows connection directly to the node point between the diagonals, achieving maximum loading. This means, in most applications, the lowest number of beams is required.
