2HSW/CEU Event Belgard - Permeable Interlocking Concrete & Porcelain Paver

  • SARA NY 14 East 38th Street, 11th Floor New York, NY 10016 USA (map)

EARN 1 HSW/CEU WITH SARA NY x BELGARD

1 HSW/CEU Webinar by BELGARDPermeable Interlocking Concrete Pavement Design and Construction

This presentation provides an introduction to permeable interlocking concrete pavement (PICP) systems. An overview of the problem with impervious surfaces and the advantages of Low Impact Development, specifically stormwater infiltration practices through pavement surfaces. The presentation addresses designing for hydrological and structural requirements and reviews required details. The design approach discussed is based on the Interlocking Concrete Pavement Institute’s PICP design manual. Specifications and maintenance requirements are reviewed along with information on winter performance. Several project case studies illustrate the construction process.

Learning Objective:

Participants will understand how permeable interlocking concrete pavement can provide stormwater management benefits to land development projects.

. . . . will gain a knowledge of proper specifications for construction of PICP systems.

. . . . will learn the industry recommendations for maintenance of PICP systems.

. . . . will be able to identify industry resources for specifying and designing PICP systems.

Porcelain Pavers: Applications and Use

Outdoor porcelain pavers have many benefits. They are frost-resistant, skid-resistant, durable, easy-to-clean and have incredibly high breakage loads (up to 2200 lb) creating the perfect solution for gardens, terraces, and high traffic outdoor areas. This course will provide an overview of the manufacturing process of porcelain pavers, explain various installation methods, and discuss how porcelain pavers can contribute to today’s green building programs.

Learning Objective:

Participants will:

1. Be able to describe how porcelain pavers are generally manufactured and the differences between porcelain and other paving materials.

2. Learn about the different applications in landscape design for porcelain pavers.

3. Learn how to specify porcelain pavers.

4. Be able to identify the proper methods of installation for porcelain paving projects.
