OK so I believe I've read all the previous posts twice (at least).
My question is I need a trench drain that can handle fork lift traffic so here are my options that I can swing on my budget.
Buy a Zurn or NDS HDPE drain with ductile iron grating at around $60 a foot or my concrete contractor (who I know does a good job) says he could form one in, cut a lip and use mild or ss steel grating.
Having one poured in sounds better to me, because of the following reasons:
1. It's repairable (a little hydraulic cement goes a long way)
2. If it fails you don't have to jack hammer it out of the floor
3. There is no steel parts to get eat up and have to shell out a lot of dough to replace
4. It's a lot cheaper!
I would think it would be a lot cheaper to pay for a big money epoxy in a concrete trench to keep the chems from chewing up the concrete.
I worked in a brewery with an NDS dura slope and it seemed solid, but does this sound better or am I missing something?
