Project Design Brief
Designers aimed to keep pedestrian pavements as flat as possible while incorporating a drainage system. Grates needed to visually harmonise with the pavement whilst being slip resistant and heel friendly.
ACO's Solution
- KlassikDrain K200 Channels with Iron Wave Heelsafe® Anti-Slip grates
Benefits
- The 0.5% built-in slope in the K200 channel allows the new pavements to be constructed as flat as possible and still provide efficient drainage.
- The Iron Wave Heelsafe® Anti-Slip grate provides slip resistance of P4 to AS 4586 and Load Class D to AS 3996, which met the designer’s requirements.
- DrainLok barless and boltless locking mechanism enables easy access for maintenance.
