Curb stone: application, production, characteristics

For the production of curbstone, concrete of increased strength is used. Sidewalk tile is much longer preserved by framing the road curb. The material is used for roads, playgrounds, car parks, paths, in landscape design.

The curb stone is made with observance of certain technical conditions. Products can be straight ordinary, with a tray, with a broadening, with intermittent broadening, entry and curvilinear.

Application

This building material is used:

• For separating the road from the sidewalk, as well as the path from the lawn;
• With the goal of giving integrity to the image in landscape design;
• To strengthen the sidewalk path (does not allow it to move and parted).

In order to divide the road and the pavement, 4 types of products are used, including the curb stone BR 10030 15. It is one of the main types of side walls in demand. Usually, when building roads, products that are up to 1 meter in size are used. If the length of the specimens is 3 or 6 meters, they are reinforced. When constructing the roadway, first of all, lay the skirting boards, and then the road surface is already laid.

In order to separate lawns from pedestrian paths, 3 types of front garden are made. Among them, the curbstone 10020 8 is very popular. Also, double-faceted specimens are produced. Firms always make as soon as possible a stone to order. Garden bows are more decorative in comparison with products for the pavement. They lay them slightly above the ground, so that the soil does not fall on the sidewalks.

Manufacturing

The curbstone is formed under high pressure. Presses for the production of such products work as follows. The mold is filled with a dispenser, and then pressing is performed, as a result of which excess water is removed. At the next stage, the curbs are removed, placed on pallets and sent to the dryer.

Previously, the stone was made of granite granite. Thanks to new technologies (vibrocompression, vibration), an onboard stone of strict geometric proportions is obtained. Modern equipment makes it possible to reduce the cost of manufacturing and obtain high quality material.

Material specifications

The stone has the following characteristics:

• durability;
• Wear resistance;
• Frost resistance;
• Moisture resistance;
• Resistance to temperature drop;
• Not subject to slipping, as well as destruction of anti-ice reagents.

For correct installation of products you need to know their height. Trench in the depth of dig exactly exactly half the height of the edge. The soil should be well tampered with. To further strengthen the curbs pour sand. All the work is done using the level and pulling the fishing line between the two pegs. It is necessary to do this so that the work has been carried out in a qualitative way. The borders are also concreted on both sides.

Modern roads experience huge loads, so it is very important to install those reinforced concrete curbs that are resistant to temperature changes and to abrasion. This material is used in many areas of construction. Manufacturers carefully monitor to ensure that their samples meet all international standards.
