Specification Development Programs

Two online specification development programs are available for convenience in developing customized specifications.

The Geoblock® system’s unique features perform an important role in two critical aspects of porous pavement systems: 

1) Load Support  

2) Vegetation Support

1 Load Support

Unit Area

Large surface area per unit .5m x 1.0m (20 x 40 inch nominal) reduces material handling time, increases construction ease and productivity, and decreases installation cost.

Unit Stiffness

Semi-rigid, interconnected cell walls act interdependently to create better distribution of compression, bending and torsional loads.

Tabular Joint

The unique four-sided tabular joint design aids in pattern layout, allowing any side to index together. This construction flexibility increases installation productivity.

The unit’s high stiffness and tabular joint system provide unit-to-unit shear transfer of applied load, reducing the pressures on the underlying soil. Greater load transfer results in the need for less structural base and less overall installed cost.

2 Vegetation Support

Unit Depth

Two cell depths are offered (50 mm (2 in) and 30 mm (1.2 in)) to create: 1) a better environment for healthy topsoil, 2) greater protection of the vegetative root zone and 3) protection from soil compaction due to vehicular traffic.
