Standard Specification for Segmental Concrete Paving Slabs

ABSTRACT
This specification covers segmental concrete paving slabs manufactured for construction of pedestrian and roof applications for commercial and municipal projects where close dimensional tolerances for thickness, and/or length and width are not required. These slabs can be manufactured with a dry-cast, wet-cast, or hydraulically pressed process. Concrete units covered by this specification shall be made with lightweight or normal weight aggregates or both.
SCOPE
1.1 This specification covers the requirements for segmental concrete paving slabs manufactured for construction of pedestrian and roof applications for commercial and municipal projects. These slabs can be manufactured with a dry-cast, wet-cast, or hydraulically pressed process.
Note 1: Pedestal-set applications and those applications subject to vehicular traffic may require alternate materials properties or structural support or both.  
1.2 Concrete units covered by this specification shall be made with lightweight or normal weight aggregates or both.
Note 2: If particular features are desired, such as weight classification, higher modulus of rupture, surface textures, finish, color, or other special features, such properties should be specified by the purchaser. Local sellers, however, should be consulted as to availability of units having the desired features.  
1.3 The values stated in either inch-pound units or SI units are to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated in each system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each system shall be used independently of the other. Combining values from the two systems may result in non-conformance with the standard.  
1.4 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
