Manufacture without site survey: If we are unable to conduct our own site survey and are required to manufacture off drawings by others, we do not accept any responsibility for any discrepancies. Any costs incurred due to differences between site and the drawings we have worked from will be the responsibility of others. Drawing Approval: Following a site survey, we will produce general arrangement drawing for your approval and upon receipt will provided structural calculations which will be required for the building regulations application. It is imperative that these drawings are checked thoroughly as once approved, any alterations could delay the proposed delivery date and incur additional charges. Site Survey: In most cases our quotation includes for and is subject to a full site survey following receipt of a formal order. We expect the area to be cleared prior to a survey to allow for accurate ‘manufacturing’ measurements. If the site is not cleared to allow the relevant survey it may be necessary for us to re-attend site to check a preliminary drawing. Sometimes this can attract an additional survey fee. In the case of mezzanine floors being manufactured from supplied surveys, plans, drawings we cannot be held responsible for any alterations / additional materials required due to discrepancies from supplied information. Any associated costs will be chargeable. Project management: We have allowed for 1no free site survey prior to the issue of drawings for customers approval, any further site visits required will be chargeable at a rate to be advised.

Any changes following your approval will be at the expense of yourselves. Unless specified otherwise our designs require the full height cross bracing or strut bracing for stability, in most cases this can be positioned to suit a ground floor layout however in some cases these positions are fixed. Our quotation assumes that the specified baseplates produce an acceptable soil bearing pressure to the underside of the concrete slab. We will however require the supporting slab details during the design process, if this is not available. We can complete a core sample investigation at an additional cost. If neither of the above happen then the client / customer take full responsibility for the design and any problems that could arise. Please call to discuss slab details used in the quotation if unsure. Dynamic Loads: The mezzanine floor will be designed to accept static loads only. Should any machinery or equipment be placed on the floor that could impose a dynamic load then Mezz One will need to be informed of this prior to placement of order. Our design makes no allowance for dynamic or high point loads, it is the client’s responsibility to advise us of any machinery or high points loads (typically from shelving / racking) which may be imposed on the structure. Bracing: This quotation and the design of the mezzanine floor is based on full height lateral cross or strut bracing on a minimum of two faces of the mezzanine floor. If sufficient bracing is not permissible, then additional costs may be incurred. Although designed to the latest regulations it should be noted that mezzanine floors are not entirely rigid. Should there be any specific requirements relating to rigidity we must be informed prior to order placement.

We will need to be advised of this design requirement prior to carrying our initial design process & will not accept any responsibility for any additional costs being incurred if we were not made aware of this ground slab design requirement prior to our initial design. Concrete Floor Slab Levelness: Dumpy level surveys can be conducted but must be arranged and are subject to additional costs. The mezzanine floor will follow the level of the existing concrete floor slab, if there is specific requirement for the individual columns to be levelled then Mezz One will need to be informed of this prior to order.

Mezz One take no responsibility in any costs, solicitors, insurance or alterations in a used floor being installed without this being checked first. Mezz One have no authority to CE mark the used mezzanine floors as the materials used are not traceable. Used Mezzanine Floors- Technical Details Such descriptions whilst given as a guide, in good faith, are subject to alteration by the Seller without notice. All weights and dimensions are approximate only. All maximum load capacities stated are for evenly distributed loads only. Mezz One can check the steelwork through our multi-suite mezzanine software, all steelwork placed into the computer is generally based at the lowest specification in kg/m, column thickness and purlin thickness. Although Mezz One check the used mezzanine floors for correct usage on live loads/dead loads, we cannot be held responsible for supplying full structural calculations. Mezz One insurance will not cover for a third-party installation or third-party fabrication. Although we endeavour to be 100% correct, this cannot be guaranteed due to not having the source of the materials. We always advise that you contact a structural engineer who will then be insured to give you loadings for building control and bearing pressures for the concrete slab. Floors were Abutting Existing Floors: We will need to measure the existing floor height accurately (at point of survey) where it is to join the new floor. A hole will need to be drilled through the adjoining wall (by others) to allow measurement to be taken prior to manufacture. This will help with the installation to allow our operatives to pack up columns to the correct level. We will allow for packing columns adjacent to existing floors to try and match levels. Please be aware that we can only pack to +/- 2mm of existing level. Whilst every effort will be made to match levels at column points, due to joist deflection the floor cannot be guaranteed to match along its entire length. Please note we only adjust those columns adjacent to the adjoining floor, we do not adjust any existing floor columns. The remaining columns on our floor are all set to the same length and hence the mezzanine floor will follow to the levels of the ground slab. Please note that where our decking is abutting an existing floor, we cannot guarantee that the decking will be a perfect join due to cutting tolerances and existing decking cuts. Options of a thin steel joining plate are available at an extra cost. Used Mezzanine Floors – Ground Slab Design & Base Plates Designs: Mezz One have not designed the used mezzanine floors and therefore cannot take any responsibility for costs or failure in the ground slab or alterations to the base plates. Most of the used mezzanine floors would have been built by “new” mezzanine floor suppliers in the UK and therefore should have been built to these codes “The thickness & design of our baseplates will be in accordance with “Eurocode 3 – Design of steel structures” and “BS5950- 1 Structural use of steelwork in building”. On pre-delivery checks Mezz One use these measurements as stated below, it is the responsibility of the purchaser to check the concrete slab prior to installation. Underlying Foundation & Soil Details for Used Mezzanine Floor Base Plate Checks: Slab thickness 150mm, Blinding 50mm, Hardcore depth 150mm, Soil bearing 80kN/m2. Foundation angles, concrete spread 30 degrees, hardcore spread 45 degrees. Accidental Impact: Columns have not been designed for accidental impact. If forklift trucks or other heavy plant and equipment are to be used in the vicinity of the mezzanine floor after completion, then suitably designed column protection or column guards will need to be provided and installed by others. Accidental Damages Or Vandalism – In the event that the Company or anyone employed by the Company causes accidental damage or vandalises the Buyer or Buyers clients property and/or premises, the Buyer must allow the Company to source a quotation or on agreement, provide a credit for the repair works.
