On-site fabrications are required whenever a trench is to form a corner or junction. All half meter polymer concrete channels have drill-out details on the side to aid the formation of corners and T junctions but all channels can be cut and fabricated to create the desired layout.
Note : When cutting sections of polymer concrete channel, protective eyeglasses, gloves and a respirator mask are recommended.
T junctions
T junctions are when an opening is cut into the side of one channel and another channel is butted up to this opening
