Liberty-Drain specification Peter Savage Limited is recognised as a leading brand for the design, manufacture and supply of quality access and drainage products to building, civil engineering and utility industries. The UK company was established in 1976 and has developed its reputation as a market leader through it s innovative designs and it s core value: 1st class products, 1st class service and 1st class people. Building on this expertise, the Liberty-Drain system provides an economical and effective method for the collection and conveying of surface water. The innovative design and materials utilised enables the installation process to be easier than ever and eliminates common problems associated with traditional polymer concrete and concrete systems. The primary component, the channel base is manufactured from the thermoplastic polymer Polypropylene (PP). PP is a tough but lightweight material which helps reduce transportation costs/carbon footprint and is % recyclable. This further minimises the impact on the environment helping you maintain your sustainable objectives. The PP material has good mechanical and heat resistance as well as being resistant to chemical and atmospheric agents, acids, salts, alkali and oils. The use of PP for the channel base provides an extremely smooth surface, thus allowing the fluids to flow easier and avoid the accumulation of deposits by being somewhat self-cleaning. The channels are defined by EN 1433 standards as type M. This means that the channels are strengthened by a further support (concrete casting) to sustain the vertical and horizontal loads, when installed according to the installation recommendations. Fitted to the channel is a galvanised steel frame which provides the system with excellent protection against regular vehicular traffic. The system is secured by way of 8 locking points per metre throughout the range and can be secured further by utilising a series of galvanised steel anchors which offer increased anchorage with its immediate environment. This makes the system an ideal product for heavy duty areas where articulated vehicles turn and forklift trucks operate etc. The channel is finished with your choice of a recyclable ductile iron gratings which are locked into position with a choice of stainless steel locking options (grating loadings detailed below). The Liberty-Drain channel system offers solutions for many applications with varying hydraulic requirements such as: commercial developments light industrial units heavy industrial units landscaping pedestrian precincts sports & leisure facilities private parking areas hospitals residential developments schools town centres forecourts & filling stations chemical plants Liberty-Drain come equipped with a male/female embedding system that allows users to connect both endings in an easy and safe way on site. For greater water tightness a sealing agent is recommended. Each channel is equipped with a series of lateral and lower preset connections for pipes, each preset connection has an opening that can be easily cut on site. loadings Liberty-Drain type-m channel system is fully certified to BS EN 1433: 2 and can support load class performance up to and including F900 which is suitable for all wheeled vehicles which includes all road vehicles, forklift trucks & aircraft. C250 D400 F900 Load class C250-250kN BS EN 1433: 2 Suitable for pedestrian precincts, cycle ways, private car parks and drives, service stations (cars), parking areas, supermarkets, hospitals, sports & leisure and areas with slow-moving light commercial vehicles. Load class D400-400kN BS EN 1433: 2 Suitable for pedestrian precincts, town centres, cycle ways, car parks, service stations, supermarkets, hospitals, sports & leisure, light industrial units, commercial developments and areas with slow-moving heavy traffic (not suited for carriageways or public roads) Load class F900-900kN BS EN 1433: 2 Suitable for all heavy duty & industrial applications particularly areas with forklift trucks and turning articulated vehicles. 3 Copyright 2010 Peter Savage Limited

Liberty-Drain installation Liberty-Drain Prior to installation, ensure that you have: Correct grating type to suit the channel and the area of use. Correct channel type and size. Minimum compressive strength concrete suitable for exterior use to fully encase the system in a continuous excavated trench. STEP 1: DIGGING THE TRENCH Excavate the trench around a centre line. Ensure that the trench is of sufficient dimensions to accommodate: 1. Channel/Sump width and depth 2. Appropriate concrete surround dimensions for loading and installation type 3. The fall of the drain run in the case of stepped systems Ensure that all loose material is removed from the trench and the base is well compacted - particularly if the ground is soft. Run a string guide or laser level along the full length of the trench at surface level to ensure installation at correct gradient. STEP 2: CONCRETE LAYING Lay a bed of concrete to the recommended thickness. For higher load classes (D400, F900) we suggest reinforcing the concrete with steel rods for better load distribution. STEP 3: LAY THE CHANNEL All installations should commence from the outlet point and work away from the outlet. Lay the assembled channels on the ground, all screws should be tightened to prevent channels from distorting due to concrete pressure. Gratings and screws should be suitably protected from concrete fouling. STEP 4: LATERAL SUPPORT IN CONCRETE Concrete should have a minimum compressive strength and be of a type suitable for exterior use, see diagram (i).apply a lateral backfill onto the channel with suitable concrete and thickness as recommended. Always pour concrete evenly on both sides of the channel to avoid dislodging. A wand-type vibrator should be used to ensure even distribution of concrete around and underneath the channels and it should fill in all interstices, in particular behind the support edgings of the grids. Concrete should be finished to a slight slope down to the channel. Channel upper edges should sit 3mm lower than the surrounding finished concrete surface and the joint between concrete and channel edge should be finished to 45 degrees (See diagram (ii). This is essential to protect the trench edge under trafficking. Installations into concrete areas should include expansion joints between trench infill and adjoining pavement to engineer s specifications. STEP 5: THE FINISHING When the concrete has set, it is possible to proceed with the flooring of asphalt, tiles or paving etc. Particular care should be taken if using an asphalt rolling machine to avoid damage to the edge of the system. If the gratings have not already been covered it is recommended that they are covered with a plastic film in order to protect them. When the surrounding surface has set, remove gratings, remove debris from drain system and ensure all outlets are clear. Install debris buckets into sumps/silt boxes if required and flush the system to check for blockages. Empty debris buckets and clear outlets, refit debris buckets. Refit gratings ensuring they are correctly located and secured into position. Copyright 2010 Peter Savage Limited 3mm 8 diagram (ii)

The following features are essential requirements: Compressive strength class Rck (EN 206-1) is recommended. Gravel aggregates with a maximum diameter 8 mm, non reactive to alkali and must be frost resistant cement. We recommend that you vibrate the concrete appropriately so as to avoid air bubbles and to be sure of the perfect adherence of the concrete to the channel. CHANNEL OUTLETS: The Liberty-Drain channel system features a number of preset side and bottom channel connections points. To create the apertures on these connection points, make initial drill holes within the partial wall pre-cut areas and then neatly cut out the full assigned aperture using a saw or other suitable cutting apparatus. CHANNEL MAINTENANCE: Regular inspections are recommended to ensure continuous performance of the Liberty-Drain channel system. Frequency should be determined as applicable to local operating conditions but should be annually as a minimum. Inspections should include: Gratings condition, location and locking devices. Sumps/Silt boxes and debris buckets (if fitted). Concrete surround and adjoining surfaces. Copyright 2010 Peter Savage Limited To clean the Liberty-Drain channel system, it is good practice to remove the silt and any debris that may have collected by use of a pressurised water jet. If gratings are removed for this process, please replace the gratings making sure all the locking bolts have been correctly located and fastened. 9
