The manhole covers in Kfar Saba are usually made of metal
or concrete
, and their shape is square
, round
, or rectangular
.
In many cases, when round covers are intended for sidewalks, they are surrounded by a square frame, which greatly facilitates the paving work around them
(these are in fact most of the square covers).
The covers in Kfar Saba are not colored. A relatively large number of covers in a golden shade exist, mainly those manufactured by the producer "Wolfman"
.
Covers intended for the Kfar Saba Municipality usually bear the municipal emblem
.
Many covers are intended for the water corporation "Kfar Saba Water Plant", which serves the city
, and the water corporation "Palgey Sharon", which serves nearby localities and in Kfar Saba handles only sewage
.
As in other cities in Israel, there are covers intended for other cities (the "bug" category)
.
There are also covers intended for consumers that are not necessarily municipalities or local councils. These covers are not tied to a specific city and can be found throughout Israel. For example, covers for Netivei Israel
, the communications company "Partner"
, and others.
The function of the cover is usually written on it (sewage
, drainage
, water
, etc.), and therefore the number of covers in the "Unknown" category
is relatively small.
A significant portion of the covers in Kfar Saba display the year of manufacture
.
In general, the design of the covers in Kfar Saba is not unique and corresponds to designs typical of the manufacturer.
Manufacturers The manufacturer’s name usually appears on the covers, with most covers produced in Israel by several leading manufacturers - Menashe Baruch
, Galem
, Solid
, and others.
Standards The cover standards include standards unique to Israel: the Standards Mark of the Standards Institution of Israel
and Israeli Standard IS 489 (equivalent to the international EN124 standard)
.
In addition, the international EN124 standard
and the various load classes (A50 - D400)
also apply.
