CENTURION
Features:
• No need for traditional galvanised or ductile frame support
• No need for concrete thus eliminating cost and time during installation
• Rebated chamber design enables B125 cover to fit flush with chamber
• Decorative concrete, block paviors, slabs etc can be laid directly alongside the
chamber creating a polished, surface level finish
• Complete system manufactured from mixture of thermoset moulding compounds
• Central removable beam where necessary
A freestanding, stackable chamber system complete with an
integral cover, 150mm deep sections, removing the need for a
costly, traditional steel or ductile iron frame.
Centurion Plus Chamber System
Access Chambers
Anti-Slip
Composite covers
The chambers are designed to comply with the
highways installation directive for a 450mm
minimum clearance cover between the surface
and ducting for applications in the footways and
750mm for other carriageway applications.
The chambers are manufactured by rotational
moulding and contain a high percentage of
recycled material making the product more
environmentally friendly than alternative systems.
The usual benefits of rust proof and maintenance
free cover are now enhanced with an improved
skid resistance surface and the cover is supplied
complete with a standard lock facility to prevent
unauthorised chamber entry.
Galvanised Frames
Galvanised steel frames act as formers for the chamber, maintaining the clear
opening size specified. The frames provide height and tilt adjustment at
surface level. For added security, Civils & Lintels supply the universal frame
locked as standard. For installations in areas of block or tactile paving, frames
are available with a recessed inner tray and a lowered edge that can be
paved up to, avoiding cuts. A dropped frame is also available for use with a
Centurion composite cover in paved areas.

Ecoblock
The Ecoblock porous paving systems provide
effective grass protection and gravel retention and has
been designed for long term use in a wide range of load
bearing applications, such as:
• Pedestrian walkways
• Service access roads
• Permanent and overspill car parking
• Emergency access lanes
• Verge reinforcements
• Light aircraft or helicopter landing pads
• Golf buggy paths
PRS-Neoweb
PRS-Neoweb Cellular Confinement System permits the
use of common fill materials for even the most
demanding load support and erosion control
applications. A three dimensional honeycomb network
of perforated/textured cells increase the frictional
interlock of the fill producing a semi rigid slab which
distributes the load laterally This inner core strength
means that the depth of fill can potentially be reduced
by as much as 50% when compared with traditional
load support methods.The heavy duty polyethylene
(HDPE) strips are ultrasonically welded together to
produce a lightweight panel that can be easily
transported manually in less accessible areas - ideal for
retaining walls, load support applications and a variety
of slope stabilisation requirements.
Key benefits of the Ecoblock systems
• Visually attractive
• Suitable for a wide range of load bearing applications
• Effective drainage of surface water
• Manufactured from 100% recycled HDPE material
• Tried and tested with a proven track record
• Independently tested
Manufactured from fully UV stabilised,
100% recycled, High Density Polyethylene
(HDPE), which is chemically inert and can
be located in the ground without long term
damage to the surrounding soils.
Ecoblock systems are also fade resistant,
providing long lasting aesthetically
pleasing solutions.
Ecoblock has a load bearing capacity of
up to1850kN/m2 or 185 tonnes/m2
Where access driveways or vehicle hard standing areas are
planned in areas adjacent to trees, Arboricultural Officers will normally
specify a ‘no dig’ construction to eliminate the damage associated with
normal construction methods. With this method no removal of surface soils
is allowed. Instead, a permeable structural sub-base is laid directly onto
the existing ground level with permeable wearing course, such as grass
reinforcement, low tack resin coated gravels or block paving, laid on top.
‘No dig’ construction may be accommodated with the use of
perforated Treeguard in the sub-base layer. Treeguard reduces the overall
depth of construction by introducing a cellular structure which dissipates
downward loads by a horizontal transfer through the cell structure. This
process in conjunction with the perforated cell wall also imports structural
integrity to free draining aggregates which would otherwise be
unacceptable in road construction. Therefore, a robust, shallow and
free-draining sub-base is achieved, which allows vehicular access whilst
allowing water and oxygen to permeate down to the tree roots.

Bridgdek
Civils & Lintels has developed the
Bridgdek Drainage System, a
comprehensive range of combined kerb
and drainage modules that can be used
in new build and refurbishment
applications. Bridgdek is a patented
product.
Green Roof
Urban development over the last 50 years has led to the paving over of
large areas of countryside with cities and supporting infrastructure. In
addition, cities are increasingly impervious to water, reducing permeable
ground to absorb rainwater run-off leading to potential environmental
problems such as flash flooding.
Green roofs retain a very high percentage of rainwater and provide slow,
controlled water run-off. They also improve air quality by attracting
particles to the vegetation and soil. These Plants also absorb airborne
pollutants through the leaves, removing them from the environment.
Green roofs can also improve the
acoustics, thermal properties and
aesthetic qualities, while also
providing additional space for
recreational and leisure purposes.
They can significantly increase the life
of the waterproofing membrane,
protecting it from UV degradation and
the extremes of climatic conditions.

Unigrate
You can see why a Centurion Unigrate grating has no
scrap value simply by looking at it - so can a thief!
Made of a high-strength, composite material, it won’t
fetch a penny in the scrap yard... so it won’t be stolen.
It’s tough enough to look after its self.
Centurion Unigrate is available in two depths which ar
easily cut on-site. The Centurion Unigrate will then
match the size of the frame every time.
Designed as an immediate solution for stolen iron work.
Composite material has no scrap value, so the Centurion
Unigrate is not a target for the thief.
Fin Drain
• SCRAP VALUE: they won’t be stolen.
• PEACE OF MIND: no danger to the
public involving uncovered gullies.
• TOUGH: a tough composite that
won’t crack in cold weather or under
pressure.
• QUICK AND EASY INSTALLATION:
cut to size ‘on site’.
• COST EFFECTIVE: one man can
install Centurion Unigrate in five
minutes.
• SAFER: easier to ‘make safe’ thus
preventing potential insurance claims
Geofin Geocomposite drainage
systems, offer a practical solution
to a range of groundwater and
gas related problems.

Partial Fill Cavity Insulation
Xtratherm Thin-R/CW(T&G) is the best solution when
designers/regulations demand additional thermal
insulation in external masonry walls. Xtratherm Thin-R
boards achieve high standards of insulation whilst
maintaining a residual cavity to prevent moisture
penetration, without a substantial increase in the width
of the cavity and of the overall wall thickness

Easy to handle
Claymaster is manufactured from expanded
polystyrene (EPS), and is lightweight and easy
to handle. The use of Claymaster satisfies the
recommendations of the Building Research
Establishment (BRE), and the National House
Building Council (NHBC) in using compressible
materials to relieve clay-heave pressure.
Dimensions
Standard size: 1200 x 2400mm,
and 600 x 2400mm.
Thickness: 50, 75, 100, 150 and 200mm.
Additional widths (eg, 400, 450 and
500mm) are also available.
Grade
Claymaster is a special low-density expanded
polystyrene. It is coloured pink for ease of
identification.
Permanent
Claymaster is rot-proof and durable and will
withstand the conditions encountered below
ground. It will not degrade in the presence of
high levels of ground water or precipitation.
Claymaster
Claymaster is an EPS compressible-fill material which can be used to prevent potential problems in
foundations due to moisture movement in soils which contain a large proportion of mineral
particles below 0.002mm (‘clay heave’). The material can be used as permanent shuttering for cast
in-situ reinforced concrete, reducing pressure on ground beams in piled foundations, and on the
sides of trench fills.
Earthwool DriTherm Cavity Slabs are semi-
rigid or rigid slabs of non-combustible,
water repellent, glass mineral wool. They
are 4 45mm wide to suit standard vertical
wall tie spacings, ensuring a closed joint
with adjacent slabs.
