scope:

This European Standard specifies requirements for linear drainage for the collection and conveyance of surface water when installed within areas subjected to pedestrian and/or vehicular traffic.

These channels are defined as either Type I, which requires no further support or Type M, which requires additional support to accommodate the vertical and horizontal loads in service, in accordance with the manufactures' recommendation.

This standard specifies requirements for grating and covers integral with a linear drainage system. This standard applies to grid units, slot units and kerb units up to a clear opening of 1000 mm.

This standard specifies definitions, classes, design and testing requirements, making and quality control for drainage channels.
