MISTRAS’ suspended work platform solution offers a safer, faster, and more cost-effective alternative to traditional scaffolding, helping you access hard-to-reach areas and minimizing downtime.
Accessing hard-to-reach areas in industrial environments like offshore oil rigs, bridges, storage tanks, and other at-height assets doesn’t have to be a logistical and safety nightmare. Traditional scaffolding can be time-consuming, expensive, and comes with significant safety risks and potential damage to valuable equipment.
Delivering similar benefits and value as rope access, MISTRAS Group’s suspended work platform services using the V-Deck help to eliminate accessibility challenges, offering a faster, safer, and more cost-effective solution that drives operational efficiency and saves you time and money.
With suspended work platforms, just like rope access, you’ll get access to at-height areas up to 88% faster than with traditional scaffolding. Plus, once MISTRAS installs the platform, all on-site personnel can access hard-to-reach areas, delivering even greater savings and efficiencies.
The real benefit for you is the overall savings: reduced labor costs, minimized downtime, and enhanced safety, and timelier inspection & maintenance.
Key Benefits of the Suspended Work Platform for Your Operations
Save Time, Stay on Schedule
The suspended work platform deploys up to 88% faster than traditional scaffolding, reducing downtime and helping you meet deadlines while cutting costs.
Safe, Stable Alternative to Scaffolding
The suspended work platform has a higher Factor of Safety (FoS) than tube & fit scaffolding, certified Uniformly Distributed Load (UDL) capacity up to 5 kN/m², and wind resistance up to 99mph.
Improved Team Coordination & Access
Multiple personnel can access the platform, even without MISTRAS onsite, boosting efficiency and improving overall productivity.
Lower Costs with Efficient Setup
Lighter and more compact, the platform simplifies transport and setup, cutting transportation, storage, and labor costs.
Protect Equipment and Assets
Unique design prevents contact with assets during installation, reducing the risk of costly repairs.
Easy Assembly and Maintenance
With fewer components, the platform is quicker to assemble and requires less maintenance and upkeep costs than scaffolding, enabling MISTRAS to mobilize for timely projects faster and more efficiently.
Applications for a Wide Range of Industries
MISTRAS’ V-Deck services enable safe, timely access to at-height assets in a variety of industries where safety is paramount.
