OVERVIEW

OVERVIEW

Configured Platforms provided a modular aesthetic enclosure using our Speedscreen400 system, designed specifically for rooftop plant screening in a urban environment. The solution incorporated our Standard Screen finish, powder coated to meet the scheme requirements, mounted to a freestanding ballasted base with no need for roof penetration. The enclosure featured integrated overhead bracing and Z-brace stiffeners to ensure structural stability and performance under calculated wind loading conditions. With adjustable post feet to accommodate uneven roof levels, and a clean, modern finish, this system delivered both rapid installation and a refined aesthetic.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION - Series 1 platform with 2m high Acoustic+ screens

Key features

- Series 1 platform for a secure, non-penetrating rooftop solution.

- Acoustic + panels providing a 33db + NRC 1.0 reduction.

- Overhead bracing removing the need for internal post supports.

- Conforms to BS EN 516 2006 and BS EN 1090-3 2008

Installation

This installation was completed in just one day by a team of three. All components were prefabricated at our Leeds factory and delivered to site in flat-pack kit form, significantly reducing on-site labour, time, and waste. The ballast-weighted system enabled a clean, straightforward assembly process, eliminating the need for roof penetration and simplifying installation.

Design

Our inhouse design team designed this screening system featuring overheard bracing to suit the calculated wind-loading conditions. The screen slats were also powdercoated to meet planning requirements and hide the unsightly generator from nearby buildings. Speedscreen400’s engineered modularity, combined with its self-supported nature and architectural flexibility, made it the ideal choice for this high-specification city project.

Client testimonial

“We recently worked with Configured Platforms on a plant screen installation at our site on Acklam Road, and we couldn't be more pleased with the outcome. Despite the late procurement of the screen, the team were incredibly accommodating and responsive, ensuring there were no delays to the overall programme.

They were helpful and proactive during the design phase, offering practical solutions that worked well with the site constraints. Once everything was approved, the installation was carried out quickly and efficiently, with minimal disruption.

It was a pleasure working with such a professional and reliable team, we’d happily work with Configured Platforms again.” - Cian Forsyth
