    Cobblestones on a road surface in Imola, Italy. Sett-paving, such as this surface in Fulham, south-west London, is commonly also often referred to as "cobblestones". ...

  3. Permeable paving - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permeable_paving

    Permeable clay brick pavements are fired clay brick units with open, permeable spaces between the units. Clay pavers provide a durable surface that allows stormwater runoff to permeate through the joints [ citation needed ] .

  4. Road texture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Road_texture

    Road surface textures are deviations from a planar and smooth surface, affecting the vehicle/tyre interaction. Pavement texture is divided into: microtexture with wavelengths from 0 mm to 0.5 millimetres (0.020 in), macrotexture with wavelengths from 0.5 millimetres (0.020 in) to 50 millimetres (2.0 in) and megatexture with wavelengths from 50 millimetres (2.0 in) to 500 millimetres (20 in).

  5. Pavers (flooring) - Wikipedia

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

    The concrete paving bricks are a porous form of brick formed by mixing small stone hardcore, dyes, cement and sand and other materials in various amounts. Many block paving manufacturing methods are now allowing the use of recycled materials in the construction of the paving bricks, such as crushed glass and crushed old building rubble .

  6. Tactile paving - Wikipedia

    A set of yellow truncated domes on the down-ramp in a parking lot. Tactile paving (also called tenji blocks, truncated domes, detectable warnings, tactile tiles, tactile ground surface indicators, tactile walking surface indicators, or detectable warning surfaces) is a system of textured ground surface indicators found at roadsides (such as at curb cuts), by and on stairs, and on railway ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sidewalk

    A sidewalk (North American English) [1] [2] [3] or pavement (British English) is a path along the side of a road. Usually constructed of concrete, pavers, brick, stone, or asphalt, it is designed for pedestrians. A sidewalk is normally higher than the roadway, and separated from it by a curb.

  8. Texture mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texture_mapping

    Texture streaming is a means of using data streams for textures, where each texture is available in two or more different resolutions, as to determine which texture should be loaded into memory and used based on draw distance from the viewer and how much memory is available for textures. Texture streaming allows a rendering engine to use low ...

  9. Tessellation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tessellation

    The familiar "brick wall" tiling is not edge-to-edge because the long side of each rectangular brick is shared with two bordering bricks. [ 18 ] A normal tiling is a tessellation for which every tile is topologically equivalent to a disk , the intersection of any two tiles is a connected set or the empty set , and all tiles are uniformly bounded .
