TerraTech – Frequently Asked Questions

How can TerraTech help me?
TerraTech allows you to utilise areas that may not have been available to you before. Giving you more options and flexibility.

How does it work?
All TerraTech systems are designed to spread applied load to the adjacent modules, allowing tremendous weights to be supported and carried. Therefore you can safely use the systems on sensitive surfaces such as grass.

Does it cause damage to sensitive surfaces?
No. Both EventDeck and DuraDeck protect sensitive surfaces such as natural grass, synthetic turf, tracks and arena flooring. In fact due to the ‘greenhouse’ effect, natural turf is often healthier after an installation.

Can I still water grass while the floor is in place?
Yes. While on natural turf we recommend that you use EventDeck 1 or HexaDeck, which will allow ventilation and water to flow through via special drainage holes.

Can I cover ballroom carpets and marble floors?
Yes. EventDeck 1 & 2 are both ideal for this purpose. Your valuable carpeted areas are protected from liquid spills, cigarettes, vehicle wheels, general wear and tear etc.

How much weight can I apply?
This depends on the system and the sub surface. However EventDeck 1 & 2 are capable of supporting loads of 3.62 tonnes per sq.ft. HexaDeck can handle almost 14 tonnes per tile!

So I can drive vehicles over it?
Yes! HexaDeck is designed to take tremendous weights and therefore allow you to drive vehicles across soft sand, mud and sensitive grass areas. We can create access roads, temporary car and truck parks, site office compounds, helicopter landing pads, military and relief agency camps.
The applications are endless!

How long does it take to install?
Installation times are dependant upon a number of factors that are unique to each project. However as a guide –

What is the next step?
Simple. Just call us and we will take a brief from you, arrange a site visit and prepare a detailed Scope Of Work. Once approved we will install then handover your newly available area for whatever purpose you require. At the end of the hire period we will collect and remove, leaving little or no trace that we were there!
