AS 2876-2000 PDF: Concrete kerbs and channels (gutters) – Manually or machine placed

Specifies requirements for manually placed or machine-placed concrete kerbs and channels. The Standard is for users and providers to ensure the quality of the finished product.

This Standard specifies requirements for manually placed or machine placed in situ concrete kerbs, concrete kerbs and channels (gutters), concrete kerbs and trays intended for use in the construction of carriageways and footpaths including crossing points.

This Standard was prepared by the Standards Australia Committee CE-013, Concrete Kerbs and Channels, to supersede AS 2876—1987.

The objective of this Standard is to provide users and suppliers of concrete for kerbs and channels with specifications to ensure the quality of the finished product. It places an emphasis on the mix proportion, rather than on comprehensive strength.

The rationalization of profiles should also reduce equipment costs without restricting designers in their choice of an adequate shape.
