Precast Paver Overview
|
Precast pavers are a highly refined
architectural concrete building stone
manufactured to simulate natural cut stone.
The layer of cement on the surface of the
paver is what gives its color and texture.
Precast stone pavers have a high water
resistance similar to natural stone due to their
high density and compression value. The precast
paver makers intend to reproduce the appearance
of |
| natural
stone by designing their molds to create a
natural appearance of smooth, washed or course
stones textures.
COLORS
There are a large selection of colors to
choose from because the manufacturers are very
skillful at what they do and are able to mix and
match many types of raw materials to produce a
wide selection of standard and customized paver
colors. The colors can range from very bright
tones that imitate limestone colors to darker
hues that imitate natural sandstone colors.
SHAPES
Due to their advanced molding capabilities,
cast stone manufacturers are capable of
producing just about any type of architectural
product imaginable, including Balustrade,
Columns, Molding, Fireplaces, Fountains,
Pilasters, Pilaster Caps, Pool and Spa Coping,
Wall Caps, Retaining Walls, Stepping Stones and
more.
APPLICATIONS
Precast pavers can be used for many different
applications such as garden pathways, patio
|
| decks,
pool, decks, stairs, landings, balconies,
terraces, commercial malls and plazas. Paving
blocks are increasingly used not only in walks
ways & jogging tracks but also in entire
building compounds, storage yards, petrol
stations and other landscaping areas. Structural
applications include fortifying escarpment and
erosion environments to prevent damage to the
natural habitat.
 |
Precast Concrete Pavers are used to construct
residential and commercial buildings, and also
to improve the appearance or functions of the
surroundings.
Precast Concrete Pavers can be applied to;
steps, foundations, floor and roof slabs,
basement entries, lintels, copings, sills, storm
water drainage systems, sewer systems, wells,
water tanks, piers, utility enclosures, walls
and wall panels, in the construction
industry. |
In the residential field, Precast Concrete is
ideal for furniture, retaining walls, paving
products, air-conditioning pads, housing units,
ornaments, parking curbs and bumpers, bank
vaults, automatic teller machines, safe rooms,
signs and storm shelters.
