There are two ways in which your rubber tile surfacing can be installed. Where a good level sub-base is already in place, tiles can be SURFACE MOUNTED. Using ramped tiles on the edges and corners to avoid a trip hazard and to ease accessibility to wheel chairs. Alternatively the tiles can be FLUSH MOUNTED to meet the level of the surrounding area.
  • Allow for finished levels to the same as existing ground levels where possible.
  • Overall area of groundwork to be flat and level.
  • Where the area of groundwork must be installed on an incline, the slope must not exceed 1:10.
  • To comply with the European Standard, the internal measurements of the surfacing must extend to a minimum of 1.50m beyond any extremity of the playground equipment.
  • Excavation to a minimum of 150mm plus the proposed overall depth of safety tiles.
  • PCC [Pre-cast concrete] or suitable edging for your requirements, edging 900mm x 150mm (post formed) to be installed in straight lines and at an even plane, bedded and hauched with 100mm class E concrete. (Rounded edge to outside).
  • Lay minimum 75mm depth of compacted M.O.T. type one stone, to a finished level not exceeding plus or minus 8mm in any direction under a 3 metre straight edge.
  • The compacted stone level to finish below the top line of PCC edging to allow for the exact thickness of rubber safety tiles and 75mm of concrete oversite.
