Access Systems

CENTURION

Features:• No need for traditional galvanised or ductile frame support• No need for concrete thus eliminating cost and time during installation• Rebated chamber design enables B125 cover to fit flush with chamber• Decorative concrete, block paviors, slabs etc can be laid directly alongside the

chamber creating a polished, surface level finish• Complete system manufactured from mixture of thermoset moulding compounds• Central removable beam where necessary

A freestanding, stackable chamber system complete with anintegral cover, 150mm deep sections, removing the need for acostly, traditional steel or ductile iron frame.

Centurion Plus Chamber System

Access Chambers

Anti-Slip Composite covers

The chambers are designed to comply with the highways installation directive for a 450mmminimum clearance cover between the surfaceand ducting for applications in the footways and750mm for other carriageway applications.The chambers are manufactured by rotational moulding and contain a high percentage ofrecycled material making the product moreenvironmentally friendly than alternative systems.

The usual benefits of rust proof and maintenancefree cover are now enhanced with an improvedskid resistance surface and the cover is suppliedcomplete with a standard lock facility to preventunauthorised chamber entry.

Galvanised FramesGalvanised steel frames act as formers for the chamber, maintaining the clearopening size specified. The frames provide height and tilt adjustment atsurface level. For added security, Civils & Lintels supply the universal framelocked as standard. For installations in areas of block or tactile paving, framesare available with a recessed inner tray and a lowered edge that can bepaved up to, avoiding cuts. A dropped frame is also available for use with aCenturion composite cover in paved areas.

Ground Engineering EcoblockThe Ecoblock porous paving systems provideeffective grass protection and gravel retention and hasbeen designed for long term use in a wide range of loadbearing applications, such as:

• Pedestrian walkways • Service access roads• Permanent and overspill car parking• Emergency access lanes • Verge reinforcements • Light aircraft or helicopter landing pads• Golf buggy paths

PRS-NeowebPRS-Neoweb Cellular Confinement System permits theuse of common fill materials for even the mostdemanding load support and erosion controlapplications. A three dimensional honeycomb networkof perforated/textured cells increase the frictionalinterlock of the fill producing a semi rigid slab whichdistributes the load laterally This inner core strengthmeans that the depth of fill can potentially be reducedby as much as 50% when compared with traditionalload support methods.The heavy duty polyethylene(HDPE) strips are ultrasonically welded together toproduce a lightweight panel that can be easilytransported manually in less accessible areas - ideal forretaining walls, load support applications and a varietyof slope stabilisation requirements.

Key benefits of the Ecoblock systems• Visually attractive• Suitable for a wide range of load bearing applications• Effective drainage of surface water• Manufactured from 100% recycled HDPE material• Tried and tested with a proven track record• Independently tested

Manufactured from fully UV stabilised,100% recycled, High Density Polyethylene(HDPE), which is chemically inert and canbe located in the ground without long termdamage to the surrounding soils. Ecoblock systems are also fade resistant,providing long lasting aestheticallypleasing solutions.Ecoblock has a load bearing capacity ofup to1850kN/m2 or 185 tonnes/m2

Where access driveways or vehicle hard standing areas areplanned in areas adjacent to trees, Arboricultural Officers will normallyspecify a ‘no dig’ construction to eliminate the damage associated withnormal construction methods. With this method no removal of surface soilsis allowed. Instead, a permeable structural sub-base is laid directly ontothe existing ground level with permeable wearing course, such as grassreinforcement, low tack resin coated gravels or block paving, laid on top.‘No dig’ construction may be accommodated with the use ofperforated Treeguard in the sub-base layer. Treeguard reduces the overalldepth of construction by introducing a cellular structure which dissipatesdownward loads by a horizontal transfer through the cell structure. Thisprocess in conjunction with the perforated cell wall also imports structuralintegrity to free draining aggregates which would otherwise beunacceptable in road construction. Therefore, a robust, shallow and free-draining sub-base is achieved, which allows vehicular access whilstallowing water and oxygen to permeate down to the tree roots.

Ground EngineeringBridgdekCivils & Lintels has developed theBridgdek Drainage System, acomprehensive range of combined kerband drainage modules that can be usedin new build and refurbishmentapplications. Bridgdek is a patentedproduct.

Green RoofUrban development over the last 50 years has led to the paving over oflarge areas of countryside with cities and supporting infrastructure. Inaddition, cities are increasingly impervious to water, reducing permeableground to absorb rainwater run-off leading to potential environmentalproblems such as flash flooding.

Green roofs retain a very high percentage of rainwater and provide slow,controlled water run-off. They also improve air quality by attractingparticles to the vegetation and soil. These Plants also absorb airbornepollutants through the leaves, removing them from the environment.

Green roofs can also improve theacoustics, thermal properties andaesthetic qualities, while alsoproviding additional space forrecreational and leisure purposes.

They can significantly increase the lifeof the waterproofing membrane,protecting it from UV degradation andthe extremes of climatic conditions.

UnigrateYou can see why a Centurion Unigrate grating has noscrap value simply by looking at it - so can a thief!Made of a high-strength, composite material, it won’tfetch a penny in the scrap yard... so it won’t be stolen.It’s tough enough to look after its self.Centurion Unigrate is available in two depths which areasily cut on-site. The Centurion Unigrate will thenmatch the size of the frame every time.Designed as an immediate solution for stolen iron work.Composite material has no scrap value, so the CenturionUnigrate is not a target for the thief.

Fin Drain

• SCRAP VALUE: they won’t be stolen.• PEACE OF MIND: no danger to the

public involving uncovered gullies.• TOUGH: a tough composite that

won’t crack in cold weather or under pressure.

• QUICK AND EASY INSTALLATION:cut to size ‘on site’.

• COST EFFECTIVE: one man caninstall Centurion Unigrate in five minutes.

• SAFER: easier to ‘make safe’ thuspreventing potential insurance claims

Easy to handleClaymaster is manufactured from expandedpolystyrene (EPS), and is lightweight and easyto handle. The use of Claymaster satisfies therecommendations of the Building ResearchEstablishment (BRE), and the National HouseBuilding Council (NHBC) in using compressiblematerials to relieve clay-heave pressure.

DimensionsStandard size: 1200 x 2400mm,and 600 x 2400mm.Thickness: 50, 75, 100, 150 and 200mm.Additional widths (eg, 400, 450 and500mm) are also available.

ClaymasterClaymaster is an EPS compressible-fill material which can be used to prevent potential problems infoundations due to moisture movement in soils which contain a large proportion of mineralparticles below 0.002mm (‘clay heave’). The material can be used as permanent shuttering for castin-situ reinforced concrete, reducing pressure on ground beams in piled foundations, and on thesides of trench fills.
