What is BodPave?

What is BodPave?

BodPave 40 plastic pavers are strong, chemically inert & non-toxic, enabling them to provide a durable, safe & sustainable eco-friendly surface for trafficked areas. BodPave 40 grass pavers are a cost effective solution to worn & rutted grassed areas, displaced gravel and for Source Control of surface water run-off.

What goes under permeable pavers?

Permeable paving systems are porous, so they allow water to infiltrate the pavement and drain into the ground or sub-base rock underneath. These paving systems are just as strong and durable as traditional paving materials such as concrete, asphalt, or compacted gravel.

How much do grass pavers cost?

They can cost twice as much as asphalt. Grass block pavers run from $4 to $6 per square foot. Good old asphalt or concrete costs from $3 to $4 per square foot.

How do you lay Bodpave?

With the 2 sets of edge loop connectors facing in directions of laying, place the BODPAVE 40 firmly onto the screeded bedding layer so that the ground spikes are pressed fully into the bedding and the base of the paver cells sit flat on the surface.

What is the purpose of permeable pavers?

Permeable pavement is a porous urban surface composed of open pore pavers, concrete, or asphalt with an underlying stone reservoir. Permeable pavement catches precipitation and surface runoff, storing it in the reservoir while slowly allowing it to infiltrate into the soil below or discharge via a drain tile.

Do pavers let water through?

Pavers are permeable and are laid with small spaces in between them. These features allow water to run through them and back into the ground below instead of sitting on top, like it would with asphalt or concrete.

How do you install Bodpave 85?

Place the paver units: With the 2 sets of edge loop connectors facing in directions of laying, place BODPAVE 85 firmly onto the surface so that its ground spikes are pressed fully into the bedding and the base of the paver cells sit flat on the bedding layer surface.

Are permeable pavers better?

Permeable Pavers are an environmentally sound choice for Berkley, California residents. Here’s why they are best for driveways, patios, walkways and more. Permeable pavers allow rainwater to seep into the soil, which reduces runoff and protects watersheds whereas impermeable pavers require less maintenance.

What happens when water gets under pavers?

Landscape pavers that hold water indicate erosion of the base material under the pavers. As the ground shifts and rain washes away the base material, small pits form in the patio, providing space for water to pool.

What can bodpave 40 permeable pavers be used for?

Bodpave 40 grass pavers are an interlocking cellular paving grid system for grass and ground reinforcement applications where there is regular pedestrian or vehicle use. Bodpave 40 permeable paving grids can be installed with either a grass or gravel filled surface and allow full rainwater penetration.

What makes a typar bodpave 85 porous grass paver?

What do you need to know about bodpave 40?

Bodpave 40 paving grids are designed to be installed onto a well prepared, free-draining and relatively even surface using either Terram ‘Reduced-Dig System’ or by employing a full sub-base construction incorporating a geogrid reinforcement layer.

What kind of pavers do you use for rutted grass?

Bodpave 40 grass pavers are a cost effective solution to worn & rutted grassed areas, displaced gravel and for Source Control of surface water run-off.
