Objectives
Permeable pavers were chosen for infiltration purposes and ADA compliances. The 31,000 square foot parking lot appears to effortlessly follow the curvature of the pond and outside perimeter of the building. Each outer edge paver was carefully cut to fit into place.
Solutions
The permeable concrete pavers on this project were manufactured with extra-wide joints, made possible with larger than average lugs. This allows for one of the highest infiltration rates for a permeable paver system in the industry. An ADA compliance paver was installed on pathways and handicap parking spaces.
Results
The pavers were able to be installed quickly and are easy to maintain. The permeable paver system not only met but exceeded many of the sustainability benefits desired by the business. In addition, the pavers provide the eye-catching look the credit union wanted to offer their members.
