Plan on at least 4 clips per grating panel, plus 1 clip at every intermediate support the panel crosses. Use the calculator below to total it for your platform, then send the number straight to a quote.
A mezzanine uses 12 grating panels, and each panel spans across 1 intermediate beam. Each panel needs 4 + 1 = 5 clips, so the platform needs 12 x 5 = 60 clips. With 5% spares, order 63.
The 4-per-panel minimum comes from grating manufacturers' installation details. OSHA 1910.22 sets performance requirements for walking-working surfaces rather than a clip count, so the engineer of record or your grating manufacturer's detail governs the final number.

At least 4 per panel, plus 1 at every intermediate support the panel crosses. A panel resting on two end supports with one beam in the middle needs 5.
No. OSHA 1910.22 sets performance requirements for walking-working surfaces, not a clip count. The 4-per-panel minimum comes from grating manufacturers' installation details, and the engineer of record has the final say.
A few spares cover cut panels, openings and field changes. The calculator can add 5% or 10% to the total.
About one minute per clip once a two-person crew has the routine down. The calculator shows an estimate for your clip count.
It depends on the grating type and bar spacing. See the grating clip selection chart, or send us your grating details and we will match the clip.
