Description:
Tactile orientation aids enable blind and visually impaired people to orient themselves more easily in road traffic.
Tiles with grooved or trapezoidal structure are used in the form of attention fields, boundary or protective strips and guidance directions at, for example, bus stops, railroad crossings, crosswalks or at level changes in road traffic, but also in public buildings and facilities.
With these tiles, it is necessary that the fields stand out clearly from the surrounding flooring and that the structure can be felt by a long stick or also by the feet. On one or both sides next to the guidance systems, companion strips with a flat, low-joint surface that contrasts with the studded and grooved panels in terms of color and structure
should be positioned. These serve to better distinguish the guidance system from the normal road surface.
Material:
The grooved slab is made of concrete and, thanks to good color and luminance contrast, the tactile floor slabs are also easier for the visually impaired to recognize and distinguish.
Application example:
Floor slabs with a grooved structure are used for guide strips or also for catch strips. When used as a guide strip system, the user is guided in a targeted manner from the starting point to the specified end point on the basis of a continuous, linear structure.
The application of this guide system is particularly useful
- for guidance in unclear or busy areas
- for guidance from one building to another
- from the building entrance to an information stand.
As a catch strip, it connects parallel guiding strips to
- draw attention to the end of guiding strips at the platform or stop end
- draw attention to entrances or exits with level changes, which are aligned in the longitudinal direction of the platforms / stops.
While the floor information with groove structure guides users, for example, to a building, floor information with nap structure in the form of attention fields points to forks in the road or danger areas.
