The KlevaKlip Multi purpose support (MPS) has been designed as a mid-sized support to cater for the “gap” in the market for decks that are a bit too high for our “Adjustable joist support” and a bit too low for our “Adjustable bearer support”.
The Multi Purpose Support has excellent adjustability, along with the strength and versatility to be used with either bearer/joist combinations, or with joists on their own. Coming in a “kit” form, it is efficiently packaged and quick and easy to assemble. All parts are fully hot dip galvanised.
The MPS can be used either with a bearer/joist combination (conventional deck building), or with just larger sized joists (eg 90, 140 or 190mm) when space or practicality does not permit a standard bearer/joist combination.
Span requirements (should be taken in conjunction with your timber span tables as timber spans are often your limiting factor):
- For 2.5 kPa rated decks, you must have a minimum of one MPS per every 1.8 square metres spread evenly across your deck.
- For 4.0 kPa rated decks, you must have a minimum of one MPS per every 1.35 square metres spread evenly across your deck.
See KlevaKlip website www.klevaklip.com.au for more complete span information and diagrams
Important note: To achieve MPS load ratings, it is essential that the MPS is fixed at both fixing points on the base bracket.
Height Levels:
Minimum height with locking nut – 100 mm
Minimum height without locking nut – 90 mm
Maximum design height – 150 mm
