H-20 Rated Access Hatch for wet well & valve vault

H-20 Rated Access Hatch for wet well & valve vault

H-20 Rated Access Hatch for wet well & valve vault

(OP)
Due to space limitation, we were forced to put a sewer wet-well in the middle of a residential street (light residential traffic with max speed limit 30 Mph).  Can anyone recommend a steel/aluminum access hatch (w/ clear opening around 30"X36") that I can use for this type of situation?  Most of the access hatches that I've seen have an H-20 rating but specifically listed to be used only for "off-street" location.

Saint Gobain Opt-E Max do ductile iron covers up to 1500mm x 750mm up to Class D400.  I dont know the H-20 class but a D400 is a 400kN Cover suitable for general carriageways.

Technocover would design a fabricate anything you like, to any size you like, to take any loading, but you pay for it.
