General Design Advice
Expert input to ensure your permeable pavement layout is both structurally sound and compliant with stormwater management goals.
Examples of advice:
-
Minimum fall requirements
-
Edge restraint considerations
-
Layer thickness recommendation
Quoting
We help develop and review plans that align with permeable concrete specifications and local council requirements. Our team can assist with indicative pricing and layout confirmation.
What’s included:
-
Base preparation notes
-
Recommended concrete thickness
-
Permeability performance expectations
Mix Design Specification
We provide a tailored mix design that ensures your permeable concrete achieves the necessary void content and strength. This includes performance-based outcomes and guidance for site placement.
What to expect:
-
Certified mix specification
-
Placing and compaction notes
-
Producer Statement PS4 (where applicable)
Site-Specific Stormwater Design
We review your site's drainage and runoff demands to ensure the permeable concrete performs as required. This includes alignment with local regulations or LID (Low Impact Design) strategies.
What's included:
-
Surface area vs catchment review
-
Recommendations on storage layer depth
-
Overflow/discharge pathway considerations
Cross-Section Design
Detailed design breakdowns showing pavement layer depths, aggregate requirements, and filtration profiles to suit load and infiltration needs.
What’s included:
-
Layer build-up: subgrade, filter, base, concrete
-
Reinforcement or jointing requirements
-
Load class suitability
