261925 — Detectable Warning Surface

MD · 2025 Standard SpecificationsBook pages 10621063View official source ↗

CATEGORY 900 MATERIALS SECTION 925 — DETECTABLE WARNING SURFACE

925.01 General

Detectable warning surfaces shall conform to the current accessibility guidelines of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). The Office of Materials Technology (OMT) maintains a Qualified Products List (QPL). Manufacturers seeking inclusion of their product on the QPL shall submit certified test results showing conformance to the properties in 925.07, as well as installation instructions and the types of adhesives and sealants required.

925.02 Composition

Warning surfaces shall be either flexible or rigid. If there is a change in the composition of a qualified product, the manufacturer shall notify OMT and submit new test results showing conformance with 925.07.

925.02.01 Pavers. Type III Brick Pavers shall conform to the requirements of C 902, Class SX,

Type 1, and Application PX. The pavers shall be 2-1/4 in. x 4 in. x 8 in. with square edges and a surface meeting 925.03.

925.03 Configuration and Dimensions

The warning surface shall consist of a system of truncated domes having a base diameter of 0.9 in. to 1.4 in., a top diameter 50 percent to 65 percent of the base diameter, and a height of 0.2 in. The domes shall be arranged in a square grid with center to center spacing of 1.60 in. to 2.40 in.

925.04 Color

The color shall be homogeneous across the surface of the material and contrast with adjoining surfaces.

925.05 Identification

The top surface shall have an identifier that uniquely distinguishes the manufacturer. Brick pavers are excluded. 2025 STANDARD SPECIFICATIONS FOR CONSTRUCTION AND MATERIALS C 925 — DETECTABLE WARNING SURFACE

926.01 Mix Requirements

Develop a mix consisting of Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement (RAP), Recycled Portland Concrete (RC), aggregate, and foamed asphalt binder. Include lime, Portland cement, and fly ash as necessary to increase the fines to meet the design parameters in Table 926 A and Table 926 B. Select a PG 64-22 asphalt binder that provides the required asphalt foaming characteristics and mix properties. Do not use polymer modified asphalt binders.
