Applications Within a Public House
This access ramp adjacent to the side of a public house is the main access for disabled customers. The composite material from which the ramp was constructed was found to have very poor slip resistance in wet conditions. A large decking area on the same site constructed from the same material was also very dangerous in terms of slip resistance.
A clear liquid applied non slip coating system was applied to both the ramp and the decking area incorporating a quartz non slip quartz particle. The surface was slip tested using a slip assessment tester following completion of the work. The wet slip resistance was increased from 33 SRV to 65 SRV dramatically improving the safety of the surface.
