The Importance of Australian Standards in Bollards
22 Jun 2023 by Classic Architectural Group
Subject to various standards and regulations, bollards act as a physical barrier designed to enhance the safety of pedestrians and vehicles when using a car park.
Depending on your car park's requirements, there are a range of bollards to choose from including, but not limited to, fixed bollards, removable bollards, collapsible bollards, and automatic bollards.
The Australian Standards outlines the guidelines for bollard materials and construction, placement and spacing, as well as testing and certification requirements.
