Typically we specify:
Two-part epoxy adhesive, designed for bonding to concrete surfaces, ASTM C 881.
But apparently the client wants more, product recommendations that won't fail?

I've seen manufacturer's details call for butyl tape and bolts/spikes to be used to install speed bumps in parking garages (PG) or surface lots. I hadn't thought about using an epoxy adhesive.

What does the manufacturer for your speed bumps recommend? Surely they have some information on adhesives that will work with their products and "properly-prepared" substrates if they are intended to be installed using adhesive.

We have always specified epoxy to mount concrete bumpers to concrete. Was the failure caused by the product or the installation?

Tommy, the Architect just advised the speed bumps are hard rubber/plastic. I asked for the manufacturer name or the replacement source, these guys seem to think I know everything.
