ULMA Solutions

ULMA participated in this project by offering its Perimeter Protection Safety System – MK Truss assembled into an outrigger style platform that provides 20’ of protection outside the edge of the slab along the entire side of the building adjacent to a heritage building.

    • MK truss was assembled into a platform that was compact enough to ship via truck from the ULMA Logistics & Yard in Cambridge to Downtown Toronto.
    • The Perimeter Protection Platforms (PPMK) vary in width from 1.9m to 3.6m and project 6.1m outside of the building slab edge.
    • The PPMK platforms are set into place on the levels below the working deck using the tower crane and are lifted as the building completes additional levels.
    • The PPMK platforms protect the roof of the adjacent building from debris and act as a storage platform.
    • Each PPMK platform can carry up to 1800Kg of tools, equipment, or formwork for a total of 14,400 Kg of overall storage capacity.
