2. Pavers (flooring) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pavers_(flooring)

   This raised concrete sand helps lock the pavers in place so that they can handle more weight. [9] [10] Concrete sand is a more preferable bedding layer than rock dust. Because rock dust retains rather than drains water, it prevents polymeric sand from drying and curing.

3. Polymer soil stabilization - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polymer_soil_stabilization

   Synthetic polymers began replacing other chemical binders for soil stabilization in agriculture in the late 20th century. [1] Compared to traditional chemical binders, polymer soil additives can achieve the same amount of strengthening at much lower concentrations – for example, mixtures of 0.5-1% of various biopolymers have strength levels that match or exceed those of 10% cement mixtures ...

4. Sand reinforced polyester composite - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sand_reinforced_polyester...

   Sand reinforced polyester composites (SPCs), are building materials with sand acting as reinforcement in the composite.Pioneers in using sand reinforced composites include German business men Gerhard Dust and Gunther Plötner, who made sand reinforced composite bricks with polyester resin and hardener to provide emergency relief housing for those affected by the 2010 earthquake in Haiti.

5. Soil stabilization - Wikipedia

   Soil stabilization is a general term for any physical, chemical, mechanical, biological, or combined method of changing a natural soil to meet an engineering purpose. [1] ...

6. Paver base - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paver_base

   Paver base is a form of aggregate used in the construction of patios and walkways whose topmost layer consists of mortarless (or "dry-laid") pavers. The first layer in the construction of such a surface is called the subgrade —this is the layer of native material underneath the intended surface.

7. Permeable paving - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permeable_paving

   Permeable pavement surfaces may be composed of; pervious concrete, porous asphalt, paving stones, or interlocking pavers. [1] Unlike traditional impervious paving materials such as concrete and asphalt, permeable paving systems allow stormwater to percolate and infiltrate through the pavement and into the aggregate layers and/or soil below.

8. Paradox Access Solutions - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paradox_Access_Solutions

   Paradox Access Solutions is the sole Canadian distributor of a product called Tough Cell, a Novel polymeric alloy cellular confinement product known as Neology geocell. [ 7 ] Once the honeycomb-shaped geotextile is placed, it's filled with sand, gravel, dirt, [ 8 ] or other locally available materials, and then compressed.

9. Pavement - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pavement

   Pavers (flooring), an outdoor floor done in blocks; Permeable paving, paving that enables stormwater to flow through it or between gaps; Portuguese pavement, the traditional paving used in most pedestrian areas in Portugal; Resin-bound paving, a mixture of aggregate stones and resin used to pave footpaths, driveways, etc.
