Segmented concrete paving is a system of individual, shaped blocks, arranged to form a continuous, hard-wearing surface overlay. Over the past two decades, paving composed of segmental blocks has become a familiar feature in our towns and cities. This type of paving can be seen in commercial, industrial, and residential areas, and at malls, plazas, parking areas, and bus stops. It has been successfully used for embankment walls, slope protection, and erosion control.

Concrete pavers are a versatile paving material. Thanks to the availability of many shapes, sizes, and colours, the product offers almost endless streetscape design possibilities. Concrete block paving can be divided into the following categories:

• Roads;
• Commercial projects;
• Industrial areas;
• Domestic paving; and
• Specialised applications.
