2.Notes:
2.1. Construction of concrete paving blocks shall be in accordance with BS 7533.
2.2. Four concrete block samples will be tested per each 500m² of blocks.
2.3. After leveling according to the requirements of slope, interlocking blocks are paved on the sand cushion
80

80
which paved on the top of base and do not allowed to drive or stand on. Loose layering depth in the
77

77
construction should be determined by the test to ensure that the thickness of the interlocking block layer is
consistent with design value after vibrating compaction.
2.4. Interlocking block layer should be paved by sections from slope toe to slope ridge. The control line should
be drawn when laying, and the section length of the road and the border of the storage yard is appropriate for
5m.
2.5. After interlocking block is paved, the strong flat vibrator is applied to vibrate 2~3 times on the top surface,
but it is not allowed to vibrate in the 1m wide range of free side of pavement construction.
2.6. After compaction, the joints of interlocking block should be filled with medium-fine sand of which the water
content is less than 2%. During the construction, the sand sweep and the vibrating compaction should be arried
10 225 10
out 2~3 times alternately until the joints are filled with sand, and the remaining sand should be cleaned.
10 112.5 10 2.7. Testing for bedding sand and joint sand should also include primary properties and secondary properties as
listed in Table 4 of 2003 ICPI Tech Spec No.15.
2.8. Factory production control shall conform to BS EN 1338:2003 clause 6.3.
