This shear transfer also prevents one paver from moving vertically in relationship to its neighbor(s). ROTATIONAL INTERLOCK This is achieved through use of the proper paver thickness in relationship to load and use and by a perimeter edge restraint. A slight crown constructed into the pavement will increase rotational interlock and the load bearing capacity of the pavement. HORIZONTAL INTERLOCK This is achieved through the use of laying patterns that minimize the length of uninterrupted joint lines and disperse forces from braking, turning and accelerating vehicles. Certain geometrically interlocking paver shapes enhance horizontal interlock. Herringbone laying patterns provide the most effective horizontal interlock and should always be used in vehicular applications. INTERLOCKING CONCRETE PAVEMENT Interlocking concrete pavements (ICP) are flexible pavements. Flexible pavements are designed to spread loads imposed on a small area of the pavement surface through a base layer (or series of layers or sub-bases) to a large enough area of the soil subgrade that the soil subgrade can support the load without rutting. A 1,000 lb. wheel with a footprint of 40 sq. in. exerts a load on the pavement surface of 3,600 lbs./sq. ft. With proper design and construction, a flexible pavement can expand the footprint to 8 sq. ft. on the soil subgrade, thus reducing the load on the subgrade to only 125 lbs./sq. ft. In a flexible pavement, the pavement surface and base have the ability to move slightly or flex under load then recover when the load is removed. The unique aspect of interlocking concrete pavements is that the pavers interlock to help spread the imposed loads. There are three kinds of interlock: vertical, rotational and horizontal.

The characteristics of the subgrade soil have a major effect on the design and performance of the pavement and can also impact construction time and cost. The gradation, or distribution of the various size particles making up the subgrade soil, greatly influences the ability of the subgrade to support loads. Soils range from coarse grained sands to silts and clays which contain the smallest particles. The smaller the particle size, the less strength the subgrade will have. Clay soils are, in general, the weakest. The three most common methods used to rate or classify soils are discussed in Appendix A. A simple way to quickly classify soils in the field is by visual appearance and feel. If coarse grains can be seen and the soil feels gritty when rubbed between the fingers, then it is a sandy soil. If the grains cannot be seen with the naked eye and it feels smooth, then it is a silt or clay. Don’t be fooled by the apparent solidity of clay soils, they shift under loads. A primary factor in the performance of soil under pavement is its ability to hold water. The higher the water holding ability, the worse the soil generally performs as a foundation for pavement. Some easy ways for the contractor to make a quick field identification are described below. Patty Test - Evaluating the water holding capacity of a soil: • Mix the soil with enough water to make a putty-like consistency. • Form the sample into a patty, let it dry completely. • The greater the effort required to break the patty with fingers, the greater the plasticity, or ability to hold water. In other words, the more water the soil can hold, the less suitable it is under pavement. • High dry-strength is a characteristic of clays. Silts and silty sands will break easily. Shake Test - The dilatancy test, or a test for reaction to shaking: • Mix a tablespoon (15 ml.) of water with the soil sample in the hand. The sample should be soft but not sticky. • Shake or uploads/Litterature/ install-guide 13 .pdf
