Interlocking concrete pavers can provide a durable
and effective pavement system, but, as with any pavement,
proper design, construction, and maintenance
procedures are required. This standard guideline has
been prepared by the ASCE/T&DI Structural Design
of Interlocking Concrete Pavement Standards Committee.
It establishes guidelines for developing appropriate
pavement structures for various traffi c and
subgrade conditions. The overall goal of this standard
guideline is to assist the industry and public by establishing
structural design standards for interlocking
concrete pavements.
concrete pavements.
It is recognized that the trend in North America is
towards the development and implementation of
mechanistic-empirical design protocols. While efforts
are underway by the interlocking concrete pavement
industry to move towards adopting a mechanisticempirical
design procedure, the required data to
implement such a procedure is not yet available and
therefore this standard guideline was developed based
on the 1993 AASHTO Guide for Design of Pavement
Structures (AASHTO 1993).
The development of this standard guideline is a
result of a partnership between the Transportation and
Development Institute of ASCE and the Interlocking
Concrete Pavement Institute. The organizations jointly
encouraged expert volunteers to become a part of the
standards committee that developed the standard
guideline and supported the efforts of that committee.
This committee comprises individuals from many
backgrounds, including consulting engineering,
research, design and manufacturing, education,
government, and private practice.
