Manufacturing consideration of LID panels:
- Viewing direction of the lid panel is either plan view or view from below. Depending on consideration of manufacturing difficulties and near face finish and different profile requirements, it may change as vice-versa.
- If lifting eye/ hook is projecting outside of lid means, we have to view the face with lifting eye as near face for manufacturing purposes. (Refer lifting hook/eye elevation view)
- In lift lid, lifting hook/ lifting eye needs to be provided if it needs to be cast in the lid. Lifting hook detail normally given in lift drawing. (Refer lifting hook/eye placement plan view)
- We can provide face lifters and either top or side lifters used for erection, lifting off table and transportation purposes.
- Face lifters were used for installation of the lid on site. Whether its need to be near face or Far face is decided by viewing direction.
- Bottom connection of lid most likely by grout tube to its lower panel or In-situ.
