The panels are electroforge welded steel per design specifications (Design Specification Sheet). The steel bars have a  yield strength of 36,000 psi and a tensile strength of 58,000 psi. Post yield and tensile strengths are similar to steel bars.

The installed system is capable of withstanding 1) a concentrated load of 200 lbs. applied at any point in any direction 2) a uniform load of 50 lbs. per linear ft. applied horizontally and concurrently with uniform load 100 lbs. Per linear ft. applied vertically downward. The infill area of the guardrail system is capable of withstanding a horizontal concentrated load of 200 lbs. Applied to 1 sq.ft. at any point in the system.

5. Warranties
Atlantis Products, Inc. certifies that its  Fencing Systems are free from defects in material and workmanship. The hot-dip galvanized coating can leave minor impurities on the treated surface, i.e., flashing, drips, drops, etc. These do not impair the coating in terms of corrosion resistance. The polyester coated galvanized metal is guaranteed not to crack, peel or blister for a period of 10 years. Accidental damages, defects resulting from improper installation and damage from vandalism or abuse are not included. Warranty is limited to a prorated value of the coating, not to exceed the original value of the coating.

6. INSTALLATION
Railing, Screen or Fence Systems are modular and connected by means of tamper proof fasteners. Different post styles are available for embedding, welding onto a surface (stringer, beam) or with mounting plates

Fence posts are of sufficient length to allow for setting into concrete footers. Post with flanges (base plate) are also available . The standard fence post spacing is 78" (2OOOmm) apart; however, drawing will call out special spacing when required. In-ground posts may be set in concrete in holes 12" (303mm) in diameter for terminal posts and 10" (254mm) in diameter for intermediate posts. Concrete should be 6" (152mm) deeper than posts. Deeper and wider settings may be necessary in some locations. It is recommended that the fence be temporarily erected using 2 x 4 supports. After the fence is plumb and level, pour concrete grouting into holes. Installation of some railing systems and customized products may vary. 

7. AVAILABILITY AND COST
METALCO fencing is carried in stock in large mats or prefabricated panels. Jobs are fabricated and coated before being shipped throughout the United States.
