Applications
Public and private areas across the United States use Armor-Tile® ADA detectable warning surfaces to provide visually impaired pedestrians with tactile warnings of changes in surface conditions. The visually impaired need to know when a sidewalk is transitioning into an intersection, and our truncated domes and wayfinding bar tiles provide them with exactly the detectable warning they need.
Applications for Tactile Attention Indicator Truncated Domes:
- Making curb ramps ADA accessible and align with the safe pedestrian crossing route across the vehicle roadway.
- An entry into a vehicular route or area where no curbs or other elements separate it from the pedestrian route – such as curb ramps, wheelchair ramps, top of stairs/escalators and blended transitions.
- An unprotected drop off edge, such as a transit platform where the change in elevation is greater than 250mm or the slope is steeper than a ratio of 1:3 (33%).
Applications for Tactile Direction Indicator Wayfinding Bars:
- Armor-Tile® Cast in Place detectable warning tiles facilitate wayfinding by indicating the primary routes of travel in large open areas, such as shopping malls or transportation tunnels.
- An indicated route that leads from the entrance of a facility or area to major destinations such as an information kiosk, registration desk, stairway, escalators, elevator, stores, or service doors.
Armor-Tile® Cast in Place Tactile Detectable Warning Surface products can be used for the following applications, and many others:
- ADA Curb Ramps
- Pedestrian Crossings
- Parking Areas
- Escalator Approaches
- Vehicular Passageways
- Transit Platforms
