Product catalog summary

Introduction
The document introduces Belden Brick Aqua-Bric® Permeable Pavers, designed for managing stormwater runoff in pedestrian-friendly areas such as plazas, walkways, entrances, and parking lots. These pavers are unique for their machine installation capability and compliance with ADA standards, making them suitable for high foot traffic areas.

Specifications and Features
Belden Brick Aqua-Bric® pavers are made from fired clay, offering aesthetic quality, strength, and durability. They are cost-effective, easy to install, and require low maintenance. The pavers are engineered to handle 100-year storm impacts and facilitate microbial action to break down contaminants. They also provide natural melting of snow and ice, reducing salt usage and maintenance costs.

Design and Installation
The pavers can be installed manually or mechanically, significantly reducing labor costs for larger projects. They meet or exceed ASTM C 902 and ASTM C 1272 standards, depending on traffic type and loading. The design allows for rapid stormwater removal, eliminating standing water without the need for sloping, and offers design flexibility with various colors and patterns.

Sustainability and Environmental Impact
Belden Brick Aqua-Bric® pavers contribute to sustainable design, potentially earning LEED credits in categories like Sustainable Sites, Water Efficiency, and Materials and Resources. They are colorfast, durable against freeze-thaw cycles, and easy to clean due to low absorption properties.

Technical Data
The document provides detailed technical data on absorption, compressive strength, breaking load, and abrasion resistance for different types of pavers. These pavers comply with ASTM standards for heavy vehicular and pedestrian traffic.

Conclusion
Belden Brick Aqua-Bric® Permeable Pavers are a strategic choice for sustainable and efficient stormwater management in various pedestrian and vehicular applications. For more detailed information, including installation techniques and standards, visit beldenbrick.com.
