Hi

I need to understand a bit more about the concrete drainage channels I think from reading through the site are described as "dished channels".

I am trying to find out the suitability of using a concrete dished channel across vehicular access to a workspace, such as the image here:

What would be the advice for such a drainage when considering it spans the entrance to a yard that is used by many pedestrians and vehicles on a 24/7 basis - cycles, motorbikes, cars, vans and occasionally lorries? I am trying to work out if it is "within guidelines" or not.

Any advice or sources of further info would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Dan T

If they are installed correctly and don't present a trip hazard it should be ok along as you have permission to install them that is!
