Although aesthetics is an important reason for the installation of paving through the use of concrete pavers, such paving serves several purposes as discussed below.

A CRB wall is constructed from concrete retaining wall blocks. It serves the purpose of keeping lateral materials back. More and more properties now feature CRB walls because these retaining structures offer several advantages:

Precast concrete is a method used in the construction of concrete building materials in a controlled manner. Special moulds are used in which the casting is done to create, for instance, kerbs. The precast kerbs are then transported to the place where an installation is required.

Retaining wall blocks are modular concrete units that are placed in a specific arrangement to create a retaining wall. The blocks are laid at angles ranging between 69 and 91 degrees to create strong structures. Applications range from cut slopes to attenuation ponds and embankments. Due to the blocks manufactured beforehand, installation is economical and

Concrete blocks are used in segmented paving systems to create a uniform and durable surface overlay. With the superb strength of these concrete blocks, especially when tightly arranged, the paving installed at industrial, commercial, and residential parking areas are hard-wearing, and thus last for many years.

Kerbs are essential in urban areas to distinguish between spaces designated for vehicles and pedestrians. Though it is possible to establish a clear distinction between walking and driving areas in other ways, precast concrete kerbs make it possible to create properly defined edges. The paved walk area can be higher than the road surface if
