16 I-Beam Side Rail Profile - Steel I-Beam profile is the most efficient structural shape Features 1. Roll formed for extra strength 2. Enlarged top flange for stiffness 3. Structural grade, traceable steel Rung top lock and weld bead 5. Positive rung support 6. Marked every 450mm with company name, part number, material, and heat trace Engineered Side Rail Design Provides High Strength 16

17 I-Beam Side Rail Profile - Aluminum I-Beam profile is the most efficient structural shape 2 Features 1. I-beam side rail maximizes strength to weight ratio 2. Thick top flange for stiffness Rung top lock and weld bead 4. Positive rung support 5. Thick outside flanges for accessory attachment Engineered Side Rail Design Provides High Strength 17

18 Common Side Rail Shapes Common side rail designs: C-shape without weld bead. C-shape curved flange. C-shape with weld bead. Offset C-shape I-Beam Engineering Outperforms all Other C-Shapes 18

19 I-Beam vs. C-Shaped Rails C-shape side rail profile: - 150mm high x 1.5mm thick (16 gauge) side rail - 184kg/m on a 3.0m span - Based on simple beam destructive load test to NEMA VE-1 I-beam side rail profile: - 150mm high x 1.5mm thick (16 gauge) side rail - 446kg/m on a 3.0m span - Based on simple beam load test to NEMA VE-1 19 I-Beam Profile Carries 2.3X Greater Load than C-Shape Profile 19

20 Fitting Design Features: 300mm, 600mm, 900mm & 1200mm Standard Radius Smooth radius for cable protection Positive rung support Requires fewer supports to carry design load that NEMA VE-2 diagrams 75mm and 100mm Tangent Maximizes Splice Plate Contact Improves Electrical Continuity Fitting Designs Help Maximize System Strength 20

21 Splices & Specialty Splices AL Wedge-lock Structurally integral Self-Supporting Fast, simple, and safe installation Steel Splice Maximizes rail to splice engagement Unique hole pattern Heavy Duty Expansion Minimize structural supports Minimize deflection Increase system flexibility Splice Plates Enhance Structural Integrity 21

22 High Performance Cover Clamps Recommended for any application indoor and outdoor Available in stainless steel 316 and mechanical zinc Works with B-Line HPL, SDL, and HDL Series Reduces cover sagging and warping Cyclonic Wind Rated Withstands 76m/s (170mph) Standard Two Styles to Select From Standard flush with top of ladder Raised (35mm) - for ventilation 22

23 Why B-Line Cable Ladder???? 23

24 B-Line Cable Ladder Construction = *** Strongest in the Industry *** 24

25 If Not B-Line Ladder???? 25

26 Car Crash!!!! 26

28 Opportunity: Cable Tray Supports Trapeze Support $75 - $250 / support Engineered Pipe Racks $1,500 - $15,000 / support Supports for Cable Ladder can Exceed the Price of Cable Ladder 28

29 Current State Fitting Supports Horizontal Bend 8 Supports 29

30 Why the current state? NEMA VE 2, BEAMA, and Manufacturers supply recommendations for the installation of cable tray including support locations for fittings Horizontal Bend Vertical Bend That s the way we ve always done it 30

31 How Can B-Line Help You? Minimize Required Steel for Fittings 31

32 B-Line Recommendations Horizontal Bend Added Flexibility for Horizontal Fittings 32

33 B-Line Recommendations Vertical Bend Added Flexibility for ALL Fittings 33

34 Implementation Use Manufacturers Recommended Support Locations 34

35 The Math 90 Horizontal Bend Fitting: Steel weighs approx. 52 kg/m Opportunity to reduce approx. 12 linear meters of steel for 1 x horizontal bend. Results in ~ 624 kg of steel removed. Therefore: 1 x example of a horizontal bend saves 624kg & $546 of steel 200mm x 100mm Steel I-beam = Yen 76,000 ($875) / 1000kg (Japan Metal Bulletin) Question: How many horizontal bends on your current project? How much steel weight and $$$ can be saved? What if the Competition Gives Their Tray Away for Free? 35

36 Straight Sections 3m Support Spacing Only for the Competition 36

37 Straight Sections Removing Supports 6m Support Spacing Removes 50% of the Supports from a 3m Span 37

38 Straight Sections Up to 12m! Removes 50% of the Supports Of a 6m Span 38

39 Success Story: Situation: TOTAL completing a refinery expansion in Louisiana. Supports for cable ladder run to a flare 213m from existing structures cost $30,000/support due to soil conditions 6m support span = 35 supports x $30k = $1.05M Solution: Results: Substitute 6m straight section cable ladder with 12m straight section cable ladder 12m support span = 18 supports x $30k = $0.54M Reduced the number of supports required for the 213m run by 50%, reducing the support cost from $1.05M to $0.54M Saved $510,000 Longer Spans Save Significant Time and Money 39
