Intercontinental

Product catalog summary

Overview: The document outlines technical specifications for Larus's Intercontinental product line, including benches, paper bins, bollards, and planters. It covers materials, dimensions, fixing systems, and evaluates the pros and cons of various materials and processes.

Product Specifications:

Benches: Options with or without backrests, featuring steel structures and seats made from Tali wood, FSC French Oak, or FSC Kambala wood. Fixing system: LF1.
Paper Bin: Constructed from steel with a security lock and a rotomolded plastic inner container, with a 30L capacity. Fixing system: LF1.
Bollard: Features a steel structure with a top made from Tali wood, FSC French Oak, or FSC Kambala wood. Fixing system: LF3.
Planter: Made with a steel structure and fixing system LF6.

Material Descriptions:

Steel: EN10025 alloy with low carbon content for ductility and mechanical strength. Stainless steel includes at least 11% chromium for corrosion resistance.
Corten Steel: Develops a stable rust-like appearance with high copper content, preventing further oxidation.
Cast Iron: A ferrous alloy with high carbon content, available in lamellar gray and nodular forms, known for vibration damping and corrosion resistance.

Surface Protection and Coating:

Metallization: Zinc or zinc/aluminum alloy is applied for corrosion protection, with a thickness of 30-40 microns.
Galvanization: Involves zinc bath immersion, providing a coating of at least 60 microns. Suitable for hollow pieces but not for cast iron.

Wood Characteristics: Wood is a renewable material with low production energy consumption. It requires treatments to prevent water, fungi, and UV damage.

Fixing Systems: Includes rods anchored on concrete (LF1), direct anchoring (LF3), and floorstanding (LF6).

Material References: Detailed references for materials like steel, aluminum, concrete, and wood, including specific types and treatments.

Standards and Norms: References standards such as SIS 055900, AFNOR, and ISO 2063 for material and process specifications.

Wood Characteristics and Treatment: Wood is renewable and CO2 neutral but susceptible to fungi, bacteria, and UV damage. Proper drying and preservation treatments are essential.

Galvanization Process: Zinc immersion forms a zinc/iron alloy with a minimum thickness of 60 microns. Not suitable for cast iron due to high silicon and phosphorus content.

Paint and Coatings: Includes enamel forge, epoxy, synthetic enamel, polyurethane enamel, and electrostatic powder coating, each offering different durability and resistance levels.

Wood Varnish and Maintenance: Varnishes with iron oxides protect against UV rays. Regular maintenance involves sanding and varnishing every two years.

Public Lighting and Photovoltaic Systems: LED lighting provides safety with high color rendering and long lifespan. Photovoltaic systems store energy for nighttime use.

Polymer Transformation Process: Involves heating polymers like polyethylene in a metallic mold for even distribution and solidification.

Protection of People: Electric shock protection is ensured through the TT system, using neutral earthing and earthed mass, complemented by security measures.

Facility Security: Thermal-Magnetic Breakers protect against overloads and short circuits.

RAL Colors: Various RAL colors are available, with additional colors upon request.
