Type II – Moderate abrasion use (pedestrian walkways and residential driveways)
Type III – Low abrasion use (single-family walkways and floors)
Tolerances on dimensions and warpage
Application PX – Installation without mortar joints where bond patterns or pavement designs make close dimensional tolerances desirable, +/- 1/8”
Application PS – Installations with or without mortar joints where the nature of the pavement and design aesthetic accommodates moderate size variation, +/- 1/4”
Application PA – Installations in which the non-uniformity in size, color and texture of the paving brick is desirable, no limit

Applications

Patented System
Segmental pavers on elevated roof deck with fiberglass grating
Compaction
Containment
Drainage
Sand-set, segmental clay paver installations rely on adequately compacted base material to support the pavement under load
Compact bases and sub-bases with appropriately sized equipment
Include compaction testing in specifications
Segmental clay paver installations must be adequately contained to prevent the movement and shifting of pavers under load
Review anticipated paver traffic and specify appropriate edge restraints
Plastic edge restraints
Steel or aluminum edge restraints
Set in place concrete or stone edging
Poured in place concrete curbing
Asphalt is not a appropriate edge restraint for vehicular clay pavements
Appropriately specified clay pavers are very durable in freezing climates; poor drainage contributes to premature deterioration of paver systems and efflorescence
Slopes of 2-10% minimize standing water and yet are gradual enough to minimize joint sand loss
Consider base and sub-base material and local conditions; incorporate drainage into installation specifications
Consult the paver manufacturer before using cleaners or sealers
Use gently flowing water and a stiff bristle brush to remove dirt
Commercial cleaning agents specifically formulated for clay pavers are available for tough stains
Avoid removing joint sand while cleaning; replace joint sand as necessary
Rock salt and other ice melts will not harm clay pavers; their use may contribute to efflorescence
Remove snow with rotary brooms when possible; snow plows and blowers with rubber edges are best; do not use ice scrapers
Clay pavers are very durable
When installed over a sand setting bed and compacted aggregate base, clay paver systems allow easy access to underground utilities with limited disruption to adjacent areas
Clay pavers are easily recycled into new paving projects; the antiqued aesthetic of reclaimed clay pavers is often highly desirable
Clay pavers will not fade over time; the color specified today will be the color enjoyed in the future

Credits SS 6.1 and 6.2 Stormwater Design: Quality Control
Permeable clay pavers reduce runoff and increase on-site infiltration.
Credit SS 7.1 Heat Island Effect Non-roof
Many clay pavers have a Solar Reflectance Index of 29 or greater.
Credits MR 4.1 and 4.2 Recycled Content: 10 and 20%
Whitacre Greer pavers have a post-consumer recycled content of up to 6.25% depending on color.
Multi-shade Permeable Boardwalk Pavers are produced with 100% pre-consumer recycled material.
Credit MR 5.1 and 5.2 Regional Materials: 10 and 20% Extracted,Processed & Manufactured Locally
The shales and fireclays used in the manufacture of Whitacre Greer pavers are mined in Northeastern Ohio near Alliance, OH and within a 500-mile radius of many major metropolitan areas.

Third-party infiltration testing indicates:
Boardwalk Permeable capable of infiltrating 1300 inches/hour
4 x 8 x 2-1/4 Permeable capable of infiltrating 970 inches/hour
Even if 99% clogged Boardwalk Permeable and 4 x 8 x 2-1/4 Permeable are capable of infiltrating 13 and 9.7 inches/hour, respectively
North Carolina State University study indicates that initial infiltration rates can be as high as 2000 inches/hour. Infiltration rates of clogged systems can be restored with the removal and replacement of joint material
Permeable Boardwalk and 4 x 8 x 2-1/4 Permeable are ADA compliant for paver-to-paver joint widths
An engineer should be consulted for hydrology and load bearing design considerations
Situations where permeable paver systems should not exfiltrate:
When distance between permeable pavement and water supply wells, streams and wetlands is less than 100 feet horizontally
When depth from bottom of pavement base is less than 2 feet from water supply
When used directly over solid rock
When used in areas were large quantities of contaminants can directly impact the sub grade or aquifers, such as at gas stations
