The Concrete Products Group is proud to announce the addition of SPEC-PAVE™, a permeable interlocking concrete pavement system, to its product offering.
The SPEC-PAVE™ system creates a permeable surface for rapid infiltration and detention of storm water, facilitating effective stormwater management.
Check with your local CPG member for product availability.
SPEC-PAVE pavers are perfect for:
- Parking lots
- Driveways
- Overflow Parking Areas
- Revetments, boat ramps
- Bike paths, sidewalks and pedestrian areas
- Light traffic roadways
Construction Efficiency
SPEC-PAVE™ units are designed for mechanical installation. Interlocking pavers may be installed during cold weather and are ready for traffic immediately after completing installation.
ADA Compliance
The SPEC-PAVE™ permeable pavement system complies with The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) design guidelines. The voids between SPEC-PAVE pavers are 12 mm (which includes the chamfer on each unit).
Urban Heat Island Reduction
SPEC-PAVE™ pavers with Solar Reflectance Index (SRI) greater than 29 are available to reduce heat island effects.
Low Maintenance
The SPEC-PAVE™ system will perform well with routine maintenance, consisting of vacuum cleaning to remove deposited sediments. Long term performance of permeable paver systems with such maintenance has been documented in numerous studies.
Winter
Melting snow drains through the permeable system, reducing icing and resisting frost heave. SPEC-PAVE pavers are freeze-thaw resistant. The paved surface may be cleared using conventional plowing.
Recycled Content/ Reduced Carbon Footprint
Ask your local manufacturer about the availability of CPG SPEC-PAVE™ permeable pavers with recycled content and SPEC-GREEN® low carbon concrete mix designs.
