When it comes to civil drainage solutions, there’s no one set style uniformly used across the whole country. Most states, including Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria and Western Australia all have their own set of regulations that means there are some key differences in product requirements.
At Weldlok, we provide a range of civil draining solutions designed to suit your state’s specifications. Our teams have worked with local authorities and our customers to develop approved solutions for each state with many options let us take you through what’s available and how they differ from state to state.
Civil drainage solutions for New South Wales and Victoria
Gully grates for NSW and VIC roads
Gully grates are the most commonly seen along the edges of roadways and typically need to stand up to a lot of different vehicle and pedestrian use. We manufacture gully grates for NSW and Victorian roads, which meet the standards for use in main roads and sub-divisions across both states.
Designed to support heavy vehicle traffic, our gully grates are manufactured using Forgebar® grating or its alternative diamond pattern grating where additional load-bearing capacity or vehicle movement needs to be accommodated.
Weldlok Gully Grates are designed to be long-lasting and robust, manufactured to meet the relevant AS 3996:2019 vehicle load class requirements. Our bicycle-safe design offers bolt-down security for added safety, and a hinged option provides for easier access and maintenance long term as covers can be easily replaced.
Civil drainage solutions for Western Australia
Gully grates for WA roads
Requirements for Gully Grates in WA varies to the eastern states in many ways, As WA is a state featuring heavy mining and construction loads, gully grates must be made to different class load uses, and the Weldlok WA range is made to match the specialised needs to withstand wear and tear of use in Australia’s largest state.
Manufactured to support heavy vehicle traffic, our WA gully grates feature appropriate load-class tested grating bars. A custom diamond pattern grating can also be made to order on request. Like all Weldlok Civil Products they’re designed to meet load class requirements of AS 3996:2019, and feature bolt-down security and a bicycle-safe design which means they can be installed anywhere you need drainage on your road network.
