Course Description: AEC Daily: Concrete Grid Pavements: Design, Construction, Performance, & Maintenance
ONGOING - 1 HOUR - FREE
As impervious land cover increases, so does the need for stormwater management. Concrete grid pavements provide increased infiltration rates, positively affecting runoff flow while decreasing erosion. This course introduces the range of grid pavement and erosion control applications and provides design and construction guidelines. Environmental performance is defined via conclusions from several research projects. Concrete grid pavements require minimal maintenance when properly designed and installed in appropriate applications.
ONGOING - 1 HOUR - FREE
Learning Objectives:
Recall the ASTM product standard and requirements for concrete grid paving units.
Design concrete grid pavements for occasional vehicular use, stormwater management, and erosion control.
Identify the basic steps in concrete grid construction.
Describe the runoff reduction characteristics of concrete grid pavements.
Identify the cooling effects of transpiration from concrete grids and recall how this impacts temperature reduction and the heat island effect.
