London E-Prix, ExCeL London
WALKWAYS RAPIDLY READY AHEAD OF A WEEKEND OF RACING
PROJECT BACKGROUND:
The London E-Prix is an annual event in the Formula E championship, showcasing all-electric street racing. That year, it was held at ExCeL London from the 30th to the 31st of July, featuring a unique indoor/outdoor circuit.
REQUIREMENT:
Temporary modular walkways were needed to bridge the height difference between the curbs and the racing track, providing a safe and accessible pathways for participants and staff.
As some sections of the circuit were outdoors and exposed to the elements, durable systems were required to withstand varying weather conditions.
Our modular walkways proved to be the ideal solutions, featuring a slip-resistant surface with small mesh openings designed to allow water to drain away, significantly reducing the risk of slips and falls. In contrast, wood can rot when exposed to moisture, and concrete can pool with water due to the lack of built-in drainage.
Additionally, our systems featured handrails coated in nylon, offering low thermal conductivity to ensure users remain comfortable and safe while using the systems, even in the UK's unpredictable weather.
INSTALLATION:
Just two days before the event, the systems were swiftly installed over the tarmac in just a few hours.
Ground fixings were unnecessary, as the weight of the bolted-together components kept the systems securely in place.
Once the rental period was complete, the systems were removed, restoring the site to its original condition.
Our access solutions are perfectly suited for outdoor use, being made from fully galvanised metal for corrosion resistance and featuring a slip-resistant mesh surface. Additionally, all components (apart from the platforms and ramp legs) are powder-coated to ensure a durable finish.
FEATURES INCLUDED:
- Trombone Ends -These are installed at the ends of a Rapid Ramp to prevent clothes from snagging.
- Telescopic Legs - These legs can be adapted to accommodate various threshold heights
- Standard Handrail - This handrail is designed for hand gripping, offering stability and support.
- Mesh Platform - The self-draining mesh allows water to pass through instead of pooling on the surface
- Standard Colour: Black – Our ramps feature a powder-coated black finish, ensuring durability that outlasts typical paint.
