Introduction to ACO Sport

ACO Sport SystemsProduct Overview

ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS

All materials used in the manufacture andpackaging of the ACO Sport systems are100% recyclable. In using the latest finiteelement analysis design packages, ACOhave ensured minimum materials havebeen used for maximum performance.

By minimising the amount of materialused in the manufacture of thesesystems, the environmental impact iskept to a minimum. Not only has theproduct been developed with theenvironment in mind, the wholepackaging and distribution of the producthas been optimised to help meet yoursustainable construction targets.

The lightweight design not only aidsinstallation but reduces carbon emissionlinked with the transportation of thisproduct.

Water is a problem for synthetic surfaces.Damage is caused by standing water,particularly in colder climates where thewater can freeze. Water run-off fromsurrounding areas brings sediments,debris and pollutants, which can increasethe rate of surface deterioration. Thissurface damage can be minimised, orprevented, by proper drainage systems.

Effective drainage is critical in the designand construction of any athletic facility;

� Reduces rain delays

� Improves conditions for runners,coaches and spectators

� Extends the life and performance ofthe track surface.

The ACO Sport systems. designed for trackand field events, are setting new safetystandards in sport and recreation areas.

They are designed to protect againstinjury and provide a boundary systemwhilst serving their primary function ofefficiently draining rain water away fromthe event surfacing.

In addition to the drainage channels, the ACO Sport Systems include manyaccessories, such as rubber-cappedkerbs, sand traps and services boxes.

Why use surface water drainage systems?

Why use Channel Drainage?

� It provides effective drainage withoutthe need to construct complex slopes

� High quality, modular product allowseasier installation, while maintainingstrict site tolerances required forrunning tracks

� It provides continuous barrier toprotect running track fromcontaminated run-off from in-field, or surround areas

Why use a Polymer ConcreteChannel Drainage?

IAAF set strict guidelines for any sportingarena - particularly where prestigiousevents are held and new records may beset. Construction tolerances can be lessthan 5mm around a 400m track.Polymer concrete is a rigid inert materialthat helps maintain these tighttolerances.

Polymer concrete also offers a similar rateof expansion and contraction tosurrounding cement concrete elements.

ACO Sport Systems comply with IAAF(International Amateur AthleticsFederation) and ASBA (American SportsBuilders Association) requirements andare compatible with Mondo and othersynthetic track materials.

ACO Drainage Channels

In addition to drainage products relatedto track and pitch drainage, there will bea requirement for drainage to pitchsurrounds, pedestrian concourses, carparks and access roads, delivery yards,roofs, etc.

ACO manufacture a wide range ofdrainage systems in polymer concrete,stainless steel or plastic, suitable forevery location in the project.

ACO channels can also provide the cableducting needed for moderncommunications and television services.The secure, yet easily removable coversprovide for rapid access for re-routing ofcables as required.

The ACO Group is one of the world’sleading manufacturers of resin castingsand fabricated metal parts for theconstruction industry.

ACO Polymer Concrete is produced bymixing a carefully selected variety offillers with the resin binder to give astrong yet lightweight concrete mix thatcan be cast into very complex shapes.Polymer concrete differs from ordinaryconcrete in that it uses polyester resinsrather than water and cement to bind thefillers together. This material gives amuch improved strength to weight ratio.

ATM Enclosure Slabs

These units are designed to to sit underATM room enclosures and prefabricatedroom structures. Units are supplied indifferent sizes and supplied completewith cast in threaded inserts for boltingwall sections and equipment to.

The units provide a pre cast slabfoundation which allows the rooms to beassembled without the need for wet pourconcrete and all the equipment andattendances that are required.

Modular slab units can be added toextend a room or moved as required. As Syntolit resin concrete does not absorbwater these units do away with therequirement for elaborate damp proofmembrane systems.

Equipment Bases

ACO Polymer concrete can be cast intovery precise shapes allowing for nylonblocks to be inserted and fixings to beaccurately placed. Retractable pyramidbarriers, used at airports for passengerqueue control also called for the use ofincreased ballast weights to addadditional mass for certain applications.

Beer Fonts

ACO Polymer Resin concretecan be pigmented to producedifferent colours. The materialwas used here to form hollowstructures which allow forinternal pipework andelectrical equipment to befitted to the finished items.Resin concrete can be usedto form precise detail whichcannot be achieved withtraditional concrete.

Drain Specials

ACO Technic can provide solutions fornon standard drainage applications, eitherby modifying a standard product ordesigning a special product to suitespecific site applications.

Recent projects have included non-standard ACO slot drain covers and wide,shallow ACO KerbDrain® units.
