Abstract

This specification covers the requirements for concrete grid paving units proposed for use in vehicular trafficways, parking areas, soil stabilization, and revetments. Materials shall possess adequate durability for the intended use.

This abstract is a brief summary of the referenced standard. It is informational only and not an official part of the standard; the full text of the standard itself must be referred to for its use and application. ASTM does not give any warranty express or implied or make any representation that the contents of this abstract are accurate, complete or up to date.

1. Scope

1.1 This specification covers the requirements for concrete grid paving units for vehicular trafficways, parking areas, soil stabilization, and revetments. Maximum dimensions are 24 long by 24 in. wide (610 by 610 mm), with a minimum nominal thickness of 3 ¹ / ₈ in. (80 mm).

Note 1When particular features are desired, such as weight classification, higher compressive strength, surface texture, finish, color, or other special features, such properties should be specified separately by the purchaser. However, local sellers should be consulted as to availability of units having the desired features.

1.2 The text of this standard references notes and footnotes which provide explanatory material. These notes and footnotes (excluding those in tables and figures) shall not be considered as requirements of the standard.

1.3 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematical conversions to SI units that are provided for information only and are not considered standard.

2. Referenced Documents (purchase separately) The documents listed below are referenced within the subject standard but are not provided as part of the standard.
