GeoPave Porous Pavement System

Drivable surface framework to contain aggregate

Source

The GeoPave Porous Pavement System with aggregate or an aggregate/topsoil engineered infill provides a permeable, stabilized surface for vehicular and pedestrian load support.

The complete system has three major components:

(1) the GeoPave unit

(2) the porous aggregate or aggregate/topsoil engineered base, if required

(3) the porous aggregate or an aggregate/topsoil engineered infill.

Other components may include a geosynthetic separation / reinforcement layer between the subgrade and base materials and sub-drain components.

Function of the GeoPave Unit:

1) create a structural framework to stabilize open-graded aggregate or an aggregate/topsoil engineered infill and to

2) increase bearing strength for vehicular or pedestrian traffic loading requirements using porous aggregate or other structural infills.
