How to Install

Installing your Cast in Place Tile correctly ensures its long life and ADA compliance. This is a guide for those familiar with concrete work:

1. Plan & Prep: Before concrete arrives, confirm your marked layout meets all ADA placement guidelines (e.g., setback from curb) and project plans. Ensure subgrade and forms are ready. Your tiles arrive with anchors pre-installed and a protective top film – keep this film on.
2. Concrete Ready? Pour concrete to the specified grade. It needs a 4-7-inch slump. Wait for it to reach a semi-solid state – firm enough to support the tile, workable enough to embed it.
3. Set Your Tile: Gently place the ADA tile (film still on!) onto the wet concrete. Using a rubber mallet, tap the tile surface evenly until its flat base is perfectly flush and level with the surrounding concrete. Avoid stepping on the tile to embed it.
4. Finish Around Tile: Once level, finish the adjacent concrete as required. You can tool an expansion joint around the tile perimeter if desired while concrete is workable.
5. Cure & Clean Up: Let the concrete fully cure according to its manufacturer's instructions before allowing any traffic. Once cured and construction is done, carefully remove the protective film, using a utility knife along edges if needed.

• California Title 24 (CBC)
• Relevant ASTM standards for slip resistance, impact/wear resistance, strength, and durability (matching leading industry benchmarks).

Primary Applications: This ADA Warning Tile is essential for: Curb ramps, transit platforms, pedestrian crossings, accessible parking pathways, building entrances, stair approaches, and any location requiring tactile warnings for pedestrian safety adjacent to vehicular ways or grade changes. Designed for new concrete pours or full-depth concrete replacement projects.

FAQ

What material are cast-in-place ADA tiles made from?

They are made from a high-performance, glass-reinforced thermoset composite, engineered for superior durability, impact resistance, UV stability, and slip resistance.

Are these tiles truly replaceable?

Yes! The tiles are designed for individual tile replacement. If a panel gets damaged, it can be removed and a new one installed without costly demolition of the surrounding concrete. (Confirm specific replacement procedure if available).

What are the standard dimensions of the truncated domes?

Our Truncated Domes are 0.2" high, with a 0.9" base diameter and 0.45" top diameter, spaced 2.35" center-to-center in an inline grid, fully meeting ADAAG specifications.

What colors are available for this ADA paver?

Our standard, most popular color is Federal Yellow for optimal visual contrast. Other common colors like Dark Grey, Black, and various reds are also typically available. Please inquire for current stock or custom options.
