Reduces Traffic Vibration Damage
The Infra-Riser dampens traffic loads, dissipates vibration and reduces water infiltration to maintain the integrity of sewer infrastructure installations that are facing ever-increasing traffic loads. Maintenance, repair and installation costs can be significantly reduced.
Energy Dissipation
The Infra-Riser's composite construction dissipates the energy transferred to the structure, thereby reducing potential vibration damage to the sewer system and surrounding infra-structures, when compared to traditional concrete rings or bricks.
Load Distribution
As a result of the Infra-Riser's compression properties, traffic load is more uniformly distributed over the entire supporting structure, rather than concentrated, as in the case when concrete or bricks are used exclusively.
“Easy-Fit” Precision Installation
Eliminates the shimming adjustments associated with traditional methods such as concrete or brick and mortar.
When used in single or stacked configurations, these risers provide a cost-effective means of precisely adjusting manhole and catch basin frames to the road surface, with thicknesses ranging from 0.5" to 3.0".
In tapered configurations, Infra-Risers are the ideal solution when further precision is required for installations that must conform to slopes or road inclinations, something not possible with traditional concrete or brick shim methods.
