Pavers may be installed over concrete, gravel, sand, grass, or pedestal systems when the product and method are approved. Outdoor surfaces require slope, drainage, movement joints, traction, and freeze-thaw planning. The supporting system must remain stable and meet local code and load requirements.

Key considerations

  • freeze-thaw resistance
  • slip resistance
  • load resistance
  • thick porcelain
  • multiple installation methods
  • outdoor designs
