Description
If properly configured, these bleachers will meet the current International Building Code recommendations for use. Check with your local building inspector for local and state code requirements.
Low-rise bleachers generally have a rise between seat levels of 6”. A standard rise bleacher has a rise of 8” to 10”. The lower 6” rise is used to reduce the overall height of the finished bleacher and can provide relief from recommendations for safety rails when the highest seat plank is below 30” above the adjacent terrain. Review your local codes for specific requirements.
Single (Standard) or Double (Preferred) walk planks are available as required by customer needs.
Features & More
Each plank is constructed from extruded 6063-T6 mill finished aluminum. Seat planks are finished with clear or colored powder coat to prevent oxidation. The planks are 9 5/8” wide by 1 ¾” thick with built in ribbing for added strength. The topside of each plank has a low profile tread to improve traction. Aluminum end caps are pre-attached prior to shipping.
The support frames are fully welded BLACK powder coated angle iron construction to provide for years of low maintenance. Frames are spaced on 6’ centers and cross-braced for independent rigidity.
Precut-treated 2 x 4 wood runners are attached to the bottom of each bleacher frame. This wood runner is provided to reduce the chance of damage to the surface on which the bleacher assembly sets and to provide a barrier between the ground and bleacher when used outdoors.
Low–rise bleachers are purchased based on the number of seat rows, length of planks, Single (Standard) vs. Double (Preferred) walk planks and with or without aisles and hand rails. To determine the size of bleacher you will need to consider a requirement of 18” per spectator. For example: a three row x 15’ bleacher without steps will seat 30 people.
