Wallbarn’s Megapads are heavy duty pedestals designed to hold suspended paving which require greater weight tolerances and higher clearances. They support paving slabs, promenade tiles on flat roofs, balconies, terraces and podium decks. Wallbarn has the greatest range of height of pedestals in UK. Advantages Over 15 years’ sales history in UK Fast and easy to install Millimetre precise adjustments in height Lockable height. Once the desired height is achieved, use the locking nuts to top and bottom of the thread to prevent unwinding over time Massive weight tolerance per unit, tested at Minus 40°C Reversible, turn upside down and fit positioning lugs to base to adequately support slabs at parapets and walls, or around columns Even flat roofs are built to a small fall to allow adequate drainage. Megapads help to achieve a completely flat upper paving surface. Positioning lugs create a clear spacing between each slab which allows drainage and gives a clear, uniform paving line between slabs. The rainwater runs between and under the slabs, so there is no standing water left on the surface. They create a cavity between the sub-deck and the paving slabs which helps ventilate the structure and allows services such as pipes and cables to be hidden from view. This is a suspended system – the weight of the slab holds everything in place. Changes to height can be made whilst the slab is in place. This saves a great deal of time and labour. Megapad pedestals are available in heights from 35mm up to 1,020mm. They are manufactured from polypropylene and can tolerate 1,683kg in weight per unit. They will not become brittle in low temperatures. Megapads have been tested using the CATAS procedure for Compressive Strength at 20°C and - 40°C. See technical data below for details. A range of different lug size, slope correctors, levelling shims and accessories are available for use with Megapads from Wallbarn.
