Solar road studs are an important transportation infrastructure. They convert clean energy solar energy into electrical energy and store it in batteries. At night or in dim light, they light up LED lights to emit bright light, indicating clear road markings for vehicles on the road and pedestrians walking on the road, ensuring people’s travel safety. If solar powered road studs are to play their greatest role, their installation work must not be ignored. So how can you install solar road studs correctly?

1. Preparation work

Before installing solar road studs, safety preparations must be made, including road cones, construction guide signs, batons, reflective clothing, etc. Before setting off, all staff must wear reflective clothing and immediately place construction signs and road cones after arriving at the construction site to ensure the safety of the construction environment. Basic tools also need to be prepared, including electric hammers, rulers, knives, small rubber buckets, chalk, generators, electric drills, glue stirrers, etc. Special materials include solar powered road studs, epoxy resin A, B glue, and fillers such as cement.

2. Determine the installation location.

Choose the installation location of the solar road stud according to actual needs. It is generally installed in the center line of the road, the edge of the lane, the curve, the ramp, the school area, and the parking lot. Make sure that the installation location can receive sufficient sunlight and is not blocked by high buildings, trees, etc. to ensure the charging effect of the solar panel. Plan the spacing between each solar powered road stud. Usually, the spacing between road studs varies from 3 to 10 meters according to the use of the road and design requirements. Use a ruler to determine the installation location, ensuring that each position is in a straight line longitudinally and the installation distance meets the design requirements. The road surface should be flat, dry, clean, and seamless. For uneven roads or roads with expansion gaps, they need to be sorted in advance. Use chalk or a marker to mark the installation point on the road surface to ensure horizontal left and right alignment.

3. Drilling (needed for embedded solar road studs)

Drill holes at the marked points using an electric drill according to the size of the road stud. Usually, the diameter of the drilled hole should be slightly larger than the bottom diameter of the road stud, and the depth should be suitable for the road stud to be fully embedded. After drilling, clean the dust and debris in the hole to ensure that the glue can be evenly attached.

4. Glue mixing and gluing

The ratio of epoxy resin A and B used in solar led road studs is usually 1:0.7 (or adjusted according to different product manuals), and 15%–30% cement is added as filler. Note that the glue should not be mixed too much at a time, so that one person can stick 50-70 road studs.

Use a hand drill with a stirrer to mix the glue evenly until the color is consistent. Next, you need to clean the road surface at the installation location to ensure that there is no dust, oil, or other impurities, then take an appropriate amount of glue (about 40–50 grams) and apply it evenly on the bottom or back of the road stud with a trowel.

5. Installation and inspection

Gently place the solar led road studs into the marked position or drilled hole. Press the road stud to make it in close contact with the road surface to ensure that there is no gap. Make sure that the smooth surface of the road stud faces the direction of vehicle travel to maximize the warning effect. After installation, use a trowel to scrape off the glue overflowing around the solar powered road reflectors and clean up the road debris to keep the road clean. Within two hours after the installation of the road studs, an inspection is required to check whether there are road studs that are installed upside down, crooked, or pressed, and adjust them in time.

6. Subsequent processing

Wait for the glue to solidify for about 4 hours before removing the installation isolation facilities to ensure that the road studs are firmly fixed. Check the working status of the solar road studs regularly to ensure that their surface is clean and unobstructed, and pay attention to their reflective and luminous effects.

The above are the installation steps of solar road studs. During the installation, you must strictly abide by the installation requirements. Only properly installed solar powered road reflectors can play their due role after the installation is completed. What are the precautions during the installation of solar road studs?

Avoid pollution: During the installation of solar led road studs, avoid touching the reflector with your hands to prevent glue from sticking to the reflector and affecting the reflective effect.

Environmental conditions: Try to choose sunny days to install solar road studs. It is forbidden to install road studs when there is water, moisture, or oil on the road surface to prevent the glue from not being firmly bonded and causing the road studs to fall off.

Safe construction: During the entire construction process, strictly abide by the safety operating procedures to ensure the safety of personnel and equipment.

Regular inspection: After installation, solar led road studs should be inspected regularly, especially after extreme weather (such as heavy rain or snow), to ensure that they are stable and can work properly.

Correct installation of solar road studs can significantly improve road safety and the service life of the equipment. With reasonable site selection, adequate preparation, and precise installation, solar powered road reflectors can work efficiently, especially at night or on roads with low visibility. The brightly flashing solar road studs will always protect you.
