There is a surface feature available nowadays that aids those people suffering from visual impairment in feeling their way in the streets. This surface feature is commonly known as detectable warning tiles. These has truncated domes that serve as a stop signal for those people suffering from visual impairment. These surface features are actually in compliance to the set requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act.
There are many types of these products that one can choose from. To name some, there are different kinds of traditional brick and concrete pavers. There are also metal panels available. Polymer and fiberglass are also parts of this product. In addition, stamped concrete systems are being popular in the industry nowadays.
The traditional brick pavers are usually made out of shale bricks, conventional clay, and concrete pavers. It is designed to have a thickness of one-half inch to three inches. It comes in only one size, that is four inches in width and eight inches in length.
Another one is the concrete paver which is larger than traditional brick panel. This type of pavers come in various colors and sizes. It is usually around one and one-fourth inches to four inches thick. Polymer concrete with fiberglass reinforcing mesh, limestone, and granite are a few of the usual materials used to make a concrete paver.
Metal panels are usually made out of cast iron. The tile comes with a variety of sizes but its thickness is set to 3/4 inch. A metal tile is commonly used in military, commercial, and marine industries.
Composed of high strength materials, that is the fiberglass panels and polymer composite. The materials used are glass and carbon reinforced, vitrified polymer, and cross-linked reinforced composite. The panels may come in varying sizes and thickness.
Another detectable warning tiles in existence today is the stamped concrete systems. To put this in a curb ramp or other elements, one needs to set up fresh concrete first. Stamp the model panel with truncated domes into the newly set up fresh concrete and allow it to dry. After that, the stamped concrete system is ready for use.
