with a track width of 420 mm, the distance between the rail supports should not exceed 1
metre. The pipe rail supports used should be in accordance with, or equivalent to the
following specifications: 1.5 mm thick steel base plate with reinforcing profile - base plate
width of at least 115 mm - the length should be such that the base plate protrudes at least 70
mm from the two vertical supports which carry the load of the pipes. The centre-to-centre
distance between the pipes should be at least 42 cm. The pipes must be properly secured,
precisely installed and with a maximum tilt of no more than 2 degrees in both length or in
width. The pipes must also be properly attached to the supports and the concrete track.
Loose fitting pipes may not be used! The top side of the tube should be at least 15cm. on the
concrete path .A soil test bore should be carried out using probing equipment (see policy
regulation). It should have a so-called cone value on the top layer of more than 0.4 Mpa (62
psa).
The use of rail systems not covered by the policy regulations is permitted on the condition
that a stabilisation test is carried out in accordance with the policy regulations from which it
appears that the
EasyKit
/ pipe rail system combination would be stable. Furthermore, the
supports for these other pipe rail systems must be installed no more that 1 metre apart, and
the tilt must not exceed 2 degrees in both length and width.
The tubes are similar or at least equal to the specifications given in the table below.
