Contact ACO Technical Department for standards details and copies of Load Test certificates. Benefits for specifiers One piece design means no separate grating specifications Colour choice to match location - black (asphalt) as standard, other colours available to order e.g. white and yellow (lines and markings), buff/beige (standard paving), red (brick paviours) etc. Simplified level and stepped system for quick scheme design Benefits for contractors Simple scheme layouts with level invert units Easy to achieve excellent watertightness (to BS EN 1433:2002) with sealing groove Light weight (typically 16-20 kg/unit) for easy one man lift enables compliance with Health and Safety guidelines Benefits for clients Integral unit without separate grating style top eliminates lost or damaged gratings Unobtrusive, self-coloured grating maintains appearance and colour with time Rodding access units and sumps with separate locking resin composite grating, allows easy maintenance Resin concrete unaffected by frost No removable gratings makes system suitable for schools and play grounds 2
ACO Mini ParkDrain FOR RESTRICTED DEPTH INSTALLATIONS NEW Introducing ACO Mini ParkDrain : ACO Mini ParkDrain is a one piece polymer concrete drainage system suitable for applications with restricted installation depths. The system is suitable for a wide range of drainage applications requiring Load Class D 400 installations. This system is not designed for highway use where it can be trafficked by fast moving vehicles. Lower installation costs ACO Mini ParkDrain is lightweight and available in 1 metre length, aiding fast and simple installations. Standards compliance ACO Mini ParkDrain has been certificated and CE marked to Load Class D 400 BS EN 1433:2002. Benefits for specifiers Shallow system suitable for minimal depth installations One piece design means no separate grating specifications Suitable for applications requiring D400 installations* * Not for highway use. Load Class (BS EN 1433:2002) Benefits for contractors Lightweight design 1 metre unit for fast & simple installations Easy to achieve excellent water tightness with sealing groove Benefits for clients Integral drainage solution Minimal disruption during installation No removable grating makes system suitable for schools and playgrounds. Free technical support To support architects, engineers and contractors in designing and installing ACO ParkDrain and ACO Mini ParkDrain schemes, ACO s Design Services Team offers computer-aided scheme design, hydraulic performance calculations and installation advice services.

CHANNEL DRAINAGE Hydraulic choices with ACO ParkDrain * 1. Constant invert, level ground - effective drainage but may need more regular maintenance due to greater chance of silting. 2. Constant invert, sloped ground - improved hydraulic capacity over system 1. 3. Stepped invert, level ground - will give a similar hydraulic capacity to system 2. *ACO Mini ParkDrain only available as constant invert Resin concrete Minimal lifetime maintenance 3-4 compressive strength of OPC (Ordinary Portland Cement), so products can be made lighter Water absorption < 0.01% by weight* Compressive Strength strength (N/mm 2 ) 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100 Resin concrete* Ordinary concrete Glass re-inforced concrete Water Absorption 0.5 depth (mm) 1.0 1.5 2.0 Resin concrete* Ordinary concrete Glass re-inforced concrete 4 * BBA report No. 1580

INNOVATION IN APPLICATION ACO ParkDrain is the next generation of surface drainage with major advantages in car parks, pedestrianised areas and hard-landscaped locations. Its one piece design with integral grating means it is not vulnerable to vandalism or loosening. Rodding Access units and the universal Sump unit ensure easy maintenance. It is a product especially recommended to be used in schools where children play due to its monoblock composition it has no removable parts which could lead to injury. Its Load Class C 250 certification means it can be deployed in a wide number of locations where light vehicle traffic can be expected. Its unique colouring means it can either be unobtrusively blended with its surroundings - e.g. coloured as the adjoining pavement - or used as a marker or even signage e.g. coloured white or yellow to mark roads. The colour is maintained, no rubbing off or being dissolved. It is compatible with all types of paving materials, and the flat sides enable pavements to be laid directly to the unit s edge. ACO Mini ParkDrain Complementing the range, ACO Mini ParkDrain is specifically designed to provide a drainage solution for small drainage areas and applications that have restricted depth installation. 6

& ACO Mini ParkDrain SITEWORK INSTALLATION 1.0 Ground Conditions The customer should ensure that the minimum dimensions shown are suitable for the existing ground conditions. Engineering advice may be necessary. ACO ParkDrain (To Load Class C 250) Asphalt pavement Top of haunch 25mm maximum below wearing course. See Note 5.0 ACO Mini ParkDrain (To Load Class D 400) Asphalt pavement See Note 5.0 2.0 Block Pavements The channel must be supported laterally and therefore blocks must be restrained from movement by bedding securely e.g. by using a Polymer Modified Mortar for bed and perpendicular joints (for example RONAFIX Mortar Mix C from Ronacrete: Tel 01279 638 700). Engineering advice may be required. Concrete bed and haunch minimum compressive strength 25 N/mm 2 Concrete pavement Note: Movement joint to Engineers detail Concrete slab Concrete bed and haunch minimum compressive strength 25N/mm 2 Minimum 200mm Concrete pavement Concrete slab Note: Expansion joint to engineers detail Minimum 200mm Concrete slab 3.0 Surface Cracks Alternate crack control and movement joints transversely within bed and haunch may reduce unsightly surface cracking. Concrete bed and haunch minimum compressive strength 25 N/mm 2 Concrete bed and haunch minimum compressive strength 25N/mm 2 Minimum 200mm Minimum 200mm 4.0 Joint Sealant Where ACO Drain channel joints and fittings are to be sealed (where used in foul water applications or where impermeability is required) contact a sealant specialist for guidance on the most appropriate sealing compound to use. 5.0 Surface Protection In asphalt pavements avoid contact between compaction equipment and channel/grating. This may be achieved by ensuring that the finished surface level lies above the grating level (by at least 3mm) Stones should be removed prior to laying/rolling wearing course.
