Practical Notes
When verifying the thickness of the steel sheets, measure the bare metal before the application of paint, or deduct the coating thickness measured by a DFT gauge.
Verify that proper anti-corrosive treatments (like phosphating) are applied prior to the stoved enamel or powder coating to prevent premature rusting.
BIM modelers should use the standard dimensions provided (1980x900x450/550 mm) for accurate clash coordination and space planning.
