Industry Professionals Say
“Infiltration is so high that there hasn’t been any water captured in the monitoring wells.The PICP is performing adequately being subject to parked cars, traffic and street sweeping."
“From day one, the Board wanted a permeable lot, a view heightened by the long-term drought in the southeast which drastically lowered lake levels and threatened drinking water supplies. They visited pervious concrete and permeable interlocking concrete pavement projects in the region. This raised everyone’s confidence in these types of systems. The board went with PICP because of easy repairs and a better looking surface.”
Design Tools
LEED®
United States | Canada
Developed
by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) in 1998, LEED® is a
voluntary system of design for buildings and sites that provides a
rating system which encourages the use of technologies that reduce
energy and conserve non renewable resources.
Sustainable Design
Permeable
Interlocking Concrete Pavements (PICPs) meet LEED® credit requirements
under Sustainable Sites. These requirements limit runoff and water
pollution by managing stormwater. The pavements can reduce
runoff-generating impervious cover and decrease the rate and quantity
of runoff. Learn more about sustainability.
Product Certification
The objectives of this program are to: promote the use of industry standards for concrete pavers, provide credentials for promotion by the individual paver manufacturer, benefit design professionals, contractors and the general public by creating and contributing to a perception of value and quality. See the list of ICPI Certified Paver Manufacturers.
