ARCHITECTURAL PAVING Surface Technologies and Finish Advancements

Segmental unit pavers have been successfully used for roads, courtyards and paths for hundreds of years. Durability of materials being one of the key reasons for their lasting popularity. These days modern pavers offer up a wide variety of newer performance capabilities and finishes. In this course, we’ll take a look at the unique technologies of segmental concrete paver systems, the types, finishes and their design considerations.

Learning Objectives

  1. Discuss the evolution of segmental paved surfaces.
  2. Explain the manufacturing standards and the factors that contribute to a quality paver product.
  3. Define the manufacturing processes of concrete and the various finishes that are available.
  4. Explain the design considerations that should be taken into account in order to specify the best paving solution.
