PAVER CONSTRUCTION 101 (cont.)
5. Pavers
Now the fun part - installing the pavers.
? The pavers used should be from a high quality manufacturer with strict control
on tolerance, raw material, and psi ratings.
? Pavers should be installed with attention to layout, pattern, clean lines, smooth
cuts and even joints.
6. Finishing Touches
To finish the project, edge restraint and jointing sand are installed.
? Edge restraint should be spiked into the base using 12” steel spikes.
? Polymeric jointing sand is swept into and compacted in the joints to lock the
pavers together and to keep weeds and debris out of the joints.
