GM1 ADR-DSN.K.495ย Landing direction indicator

ED Decision 2014/013/R

The landing โ€˜Tโ€™ may be constructed of wood or other light material and its dimensions may correspond to those shown in Figure K-1. It may be painted white or orange. The landing โ€˜Tโ€™ should be mounted on a cement concrete pedestal adequately reinforced with steel bars to avoid cracks resulting from unequal settlement. The surface of the pedestal should be finished smooth with a steel trowel and coated with paint of appropriate colour. The colour of the pedestal should be chosen to contrast with the colour of the landing โ€˜Tโ€™. Before fastening the landing โ€˜Tโ€™ base to the concrete pedestal, the mounting bolts should be checked for correct spacing. The landing โ€˜Tโ€™ should be assembled and mounted in accordance with the manufacturerโ€™s installation instructions. It should be free to move about a vertical axis so that it can be set in any direction. Where required for use at night, the landing โ€˜Tโ€™ should either be illuminated or outlined by white lights.
