HydraPressed
paving slabs are made from a concrete mix, using a 700 ton hydraulic press
at intense pressures exceeding 2250 PSI. This process creates a
product of high density and durability together with a surface
comparable to that of natural stone. The compressive strength of
the slabs if 8000 PSI. As the HydraPressed slab is made in a steel
mold under exacting factory conditions, the product is true, square, and
has clean chamfered edges to give a neat appearance, and to facilitate
installation.
HydraPressed
paving slabs are used for pedestrian traffic and are installed on sand,
mortar, or pedestals, for patios, plaza decks, roof tops, or any other
type of pedestrian walking surface.
Pedestal
systems are designed for use over pitched surfaces. These systems
ensure precise HydraPressed slab alignment and even spacing to allow for
drainage and air circulation which are critical to the health of any
deck installed over a waterproof membrane. This type of segmental
system allows for ease of access for repairs or annual maintenance to
the subsurface without damage to the HydraPressed
slabs.
For Plaza or
roof top applications caution should be exercised with respect to the
weight of the product as well as the wind velocities in the areas of
use.
