Permeable pavement is a type of pavement that allows rainfall to percolate to an underlying reservoir base where rainfall is either infiltrated to underlying soils or removed by a subsurface drain. Standard pavements constructed with asphalt and concrete are considered to be “impermeable.”
PERMEABLE PAVERS. SECTION 32 14 13.19. Note: This guide specification for U.S. applications describes construction of permeable interlocking concrete pavers on a permeable, open-graded crushed stone bedding layer (typically ASTM No. 8 stone).
STANDARDS. ASTM STANDARD C936. 8,000 psi avg - 55MPa. 7,200 psi min unit - 50MPa. 5% absorption avg (7% max) Height tolerance less than +/- 3.2 mm. Dimensional accuracy +/- 1/16" - 1.6 mm. Unilock® meets or exceeds all C936 paver manufacturing standards. Product: PromenadeTM Plank Paver. Location: Project: Design:
To ensure that your permeable pavement project is successful, it’s important to understand the nine key components that make up a high-quality permeable paving system. 1. Unilock Permeable Interlocking Concrete Paver
Permeable paving allows water to pass through into the soil and gravel layers. It uses unique products with grids or patterns filled with gravel or grass. These robust and durable products can withstand heavy loads and traffic while also maintaining permeability.
A permeable pavement surfaced with concrete paving units, capable of CARRYING TRAFlC LOADS WITH JOINTS VOIDS OR OPENINGS THAT ALLOW WATER TO pass through the pavement construction into an open graded sub-base
What are permeable pavers? Permeable pavers mimic the natural process that occurs on the ground’s surface. The role of a segmental permeable pavement system is to allow water to pass through the paving stones joints and seep into the ground naturally, or to be retained in the base/subbase structure rather than turning into runoff headed ...
