Asphalt Kerb
Outfalls and Repair
Where the asphalt kerb provides surface water drainage, outfalls will need to be incorporated.
Again associated advanced construction is simple. Grates are fully installed ahead of kerb construction.
Where the grates are located immediately in front of the kerb the extrusion process is unaffected as kerb is constructed past the grate.
Where the design features off line outfalls then it is common to re-align the kerb locally around them. This localised realignment can be machine laid, where a swept detail is required, or formed by hand using pre-laid kerb, cut and affixed on a hot poured bitumen adhesive.
The use of short sections of pre-laid kerb secured on a hot poured bitumen adhesive facilitates minor repairs. Pre-laid kerb is supplied by Extrudakerb together with comprehensive instructions allowing local independent labour to effect repair.
