The BS EN 124 standard serves as a general guide for determining the stability of products, and it outlines the parameters for different classes of products in terms of static load tests. However, it doesn't offer much specific information about the dynamic loads that various traffic conditions on modern road systems can impose.
In most cases, choosing a product is a simple process, but we have found that certain conditions require extra care when making a selection. Since BS EN 124 doesn't provide much guidance on selecting products under dynamic loads, we have developed the details shown below, which covers areas where products may be subjected to extreme loads.
In each scenario shown here, a product of high specification should be considered:
