Embedded solar road studs are widely used in various road environments, such as highways, urban roads, curved roads and mountainous areas, due to their high durability and good nighttime visibility. Its installation is not only related to its stability and service life, but also affects the safety of driving. The following are the installation steps and precautions for embedded solar road studs to help ensure that the installed road studs can work stably and extend their service life.
Steps to install embedded solar road studs
1. Prepare tools and materials
Before installation, prepare the following tools and materials:
Water drill (for drilling holes)
Epoxy resin or special glue (for fixing road studs)
Electric hammer (for cleaning holes)
Brush and rag (for cleaning)
Line marking tool (for marking the position of road studs)
2. Determine the installation location
Determine the installation location of solar road studs according to road planning and usage requirements. Usually, road studs are installed at the edge or center line of the road, and the specific distance needs to be set according to road standards and traffic requirements.
3. Drilling
Use a water drill to drill holes at the marked installation points, and the depth and diameter of the holes need to be slightly larger than the size of the road studs. When drilling, make sure the angle is perpendicular to the ground to ensure that the road stud is firmly installed on the road surface. Usually, the depth of the hole is 3-4 cm to accommodate the bottom of the road stud.
4. Clean the hole
After drilling, use an electric hammer or brush to remove debris and dust from the hole, and then wipe the hole wall clean with a rag so that the glue or epoxy resin can tightly bond the road stud and the road surface.
5. Fill glue or epoxy resin
Fill the special glue or epoxy resin into the hole evenly, and be careful not to fill it too much, so as not to overflow and affect the fixing effect of the road stud. The amount of glue or resin should ensure that the bottom of the road stud and the hole wall are completely bonded.
6. Install the solar road stud
Carefully insert the solar road stud light into the hole and gently press the road stud so that it is flush with the road surface or slightly lower than the road surface to avoid damage when vehicles pass by. Make sure the surface of the road stud is flush with the road to reduce the impact on moving vehicles.
7. Fix and dry
After the road stud is placed, wait for the epoxy resin or glue to fully cure. Usually, the drying time is 24 hours, and vehicles should be avoided during this period to ensure that the road studs are firmly bonded.
Installation precautions
Choose durable glue or epoxy resin: Make sure to use pressure-resistant and waterproof glue to prevent the solar-powered road studs from loosening or falling off in bad weather.
Installation environment: Avoid installation in rainy or humid environments to ensure the bonding effect of the glue.
Road cleaning: After installation, check whether the road studs are flat, and clean up the surrounding construction traces to keep the road clean.
Regular inspection: After installation, regularly check the use of the road studs, and maintain and replace them in time if they are loose or damaged.
The installation of embedded solar road studs is not only related to construction quality but also an important step to ensure driving safety. By standardizing the installation and using the road studs reasonably, the safety of night driving and the service life of the road can be effectively improved.
