Load Classifications

    Home Load Classifications

    Resin’s complete range of SMC composite Access Covers, Gully Grates and Frames are designed and tested in accordance with the Australian Standard AS3996:2006 or European standard EN124:1994. The following table provides an overview of loading classes, its typical use and loading capacity. Appropriate class for a cover or grate depends upon the place of installation. Contact our sales office for further information regarding selection of the appropriate class rating.

    EN124 : 1994 – European Standard Load Classification

    EN 124 divides Manhole Covers and Drainage Gratings into 6 classes as follows : A15, B125, C250, D400, E600 and F900.
    The classification denotes the test load expressed in kN.
    Type testing under The European Standard EN124:1994 requires the Access Covers to meet the Minimum Design Load (kN) without exceeding the Permissible Permanent Set values. Refer to EN124:1994 subclause 8.3. for further details.

    GROUP 1 CLASS A15

    Areas which can only be used by pedestrians and pedal cyclists.

    GROUP 2 CLASS B125

    Footways, pedestrian and comparable areas, car parks or car parking decks.

    GROUP 3 CLASS C250

    For gully tops installed in the area of kerbside channels of roads which when measured from the kerb edge, extend a maximum of 0,5m into the carriageway and a maximum of 0,2m into the footway.

    GROUP 4 CLASS D400

    Carriageways of roads (including pedestrian streets),hard shoulders and parking areas, for all types of road vehicles.

    GROUP 5 CLASS E600

    Areas imposing high wheel loads, e.g. docks, aircraft pavements.

    GROUP 6 CLASS F900

    Areas imposing particularly high wheel loads, e.g.aircraft pavements.

    Class Rating   Typical Use Norminal Wheel Load(kg) Servicibility Design Load(KN) Ultimate Limit State Design Load(KN)
    A 2 Areas which can only be used by pedestrians and pedal cyclists. 330 10 15
    B 3 Footways, pedestrian and comparable areas, car parks or car parking decks. 2670 83 125
    C 4 For gully tops installed in the area of kerbside channels of roads which when measured from the kerb edge, extend a maximum of 0,5m into the carriageway and a maximum of 0,2m into the footway. 5000 167 250
    D 5 Carriageways of roads (including pedestrian streets),hard shoulders and parking areas, for all types of road vehicles. 8000 267 400
    E 6 Areas imposing high wheel loads, e.g. docks, aircraft pavements. 20000 400 600
    F 7 Areas imposing particularly high wheel loads, e.g.aircraft pavements. 30000 600 900

    NOTE: A force of 1 kN is approximately equal to the weight of 100kg.

    AS3996 : 2006 – Australian Standard Load Classifications

    The Australian Standard, AS3996:2006 is GATIC’s nominated standard for projects/applications within Australia. Type testing under AS3996:2006 requires the Access Covers to meet the Ultimate Limit State Design Load (kN) without exceeding the Permanent Set and Deflection Limits. Refer to AS3996:2006 subclause 4.2.1. for further details.

     7 G Docks and aircraft pavements subject to very high wheel loads (extra heavy duty – G) 30000 30000 600 600 900 900

    NOTES:
    1 Nominal wheel loads are given for guidance only. Consideration should be given to the type, size and pneumatic pressure of the load applied.
    2 Class B design loads exceed AS 5100.2 requirements for footway loading.
    3 Class D design loads exceed AS 5100.2 requirements for a W80 wheel load.
    4 Class C units are based on an intermediate load.
    5 The serviceability load is set at 2/3 of the ultimate limit state design load.
    6 A force of 1 kN approximately equal to the weight of 100 kg.
