A grating is a surface with a regular pattern of parallel or perpendicular bars, used for various purposes such as flooring, fencing, drainage, or screening.
The term “gratings detail” may refer to the specific design or specifications of a grating, including the type of material, size, spacing, and strength of the bars, as well as any additional features or attachments.
Drainage gratings in a basement is typically used to allow water to flow away from the foundation of the building. Drainage gratings are typically made from materials that are resistant to corrosion, such as plastic or fiberglass.
The gratings bars are spaced closely together to prevent debris from clogging the drainage system. Drainage gratings are usually placed in a trough or channel that runs along the perimeter of the basement floor.
