Maintenance

All Alsim products are designed to meet the needs and expectations of our clients and are manufactured with care by a dedicated team of craftsmen using high quality materials and advanced production techniques.
Maintenance can take the form of planned preventative actions or reactive work associated with the repair or replacement of items damaged or worn out in use.

Planned Preventative Maintenance
As with all assets, correct usage in line with the manufacturer’s instructions and a program of regular maintenance will ensure that the product continues to function correctly, meets your ongoing requirements and maximises your return on investment.
As noted in the following entries, all finishes and components should be regularly checked and any damage should be suitably repaired. Failure to identify and properly repair damage to any area of the item may cause danger and will impact on the long term performance of the product and the ultimate useful life.
The following items are for guidance purposes only and the frequency of inspections and associate maintenance programs and service works should be adjusted in cases of unusual or heavy use and where the location or operating environment presents excessive challenges to the product.

General Products

All products should be emptied prior to being moved or transported and careful attention should be paid to the unique weight information provided on the data plate fitted to each item.

The maximum design floor loading capacity must not be exceeded and all loads should be evenly distributed over the floor area.

All products should only be stacked on the corners and should not have items stacked or stored on the roof. Alsim products should not be stacked on top of another manufacturer’s product and should not have another manufacturer’s product stacked on top of them. This is for reasons of structural integrity. Based on our construction method, range of materials employed and limitations of use, our product ranges are supported by formal structural calculations. However, these prove the performance of our products only and would not provide any guarantee of performance when coupled with any other product or used in an unapproved manner.

All products should only be used in association with other Alsim products.

Our products should not be used in environments or for purposes for which they were not designed

Jacklegs

All jacklegs should be checked visually and by hand prior to use in order to identify any possible defects. Jacklegs should be professionally tested every 6 months or after sustaining any impact or damage of any kind in order to ensure that they remain fit for purpose.

All products should be levelled, sited and stacked on the corners of the unit or modular sections using suitable foundations constructed according to the approved Alsim foundation layout design which will be issued at the time of order.

Lifting Points

Lifting eyes should be checked visually and by hand prior to use in order to identify any possible defects. Lifting eyes should be professionally tested every 6 months or after sustaining any impact or damage of any kind in order to ensure that they remain fit for purpose. Four high level lifting eyes are fitted as standard to the unit, and four low level lifting eyes are available as an optional extra.
