Slabs

Cover, seating, reducing and landing slabs

Cover Slabs

AG manufacture Type 2 heavy duty concrete cover slabs suitable for manhole units.

They come in a range of dimensions, however non-standard  can be designed and supplied to order. Cover slabs with special access holes can be supplied as made to order products.

Seating Slabs

Cover frame seating rings are reinforced 75mm thick units manufactured to suit cover slabs with a 600 x 600, 675 x 675 and 750 x 600 opening.

These are used in place of engineering bricks to adjust the metal covers and frames to the required level.

Advantages:

  • They can be quickly and easily installed by semi-skilled labour.
  • There are fewer joints – reducing the likelihood of infiltration.
  • All concrete manhole units can be ordered from one source.
  • There is a reduced risk of on-site damage and pilferage.

Units are made in accordance with BS 5911-3: 2010 and in compliance with safety guidelines given in the HSE publication ‘Safe Work in Confined Spaces’.
