These detectable warning tiles are constructed of a heavy duty fiberglass composite material that will hold to years of high traffic usage. Sidewalk width requirements exist to make sure sidewalks are accessible for use by wheelchair bound individuals. Truncated domes in a detectable warning surface shall have a center to center spacing of 41 mm 1 6 in minimum and 61 mm 2 4 in maximum and a base to base spacing of 17 mm 0 65 in minimum measured between the most adjacent domes. The minimum width for an ada compliant sidewalk is 36 inches 3 feet though sidewalks can be constructed wider than this.
