These elegant pavers are available in an unsurpassed range of colors and styles that blend perfectly with their surrounding environ- ment, enabling a seamless transition from indoor flooring to outdoor paving. The single ¾” thick slab of load-bearing porcelain produces a paver of exceptional strength, density and hardness, specifically designed for building elevated decks using fixed or variable height pedestals as well as for laying on-grade, dry installed or with thinset and grout. Together with their practically zero water absorption, the technical and aesthetic properties of porcelain pavers make them ideal for practically any outdoor decking or paving application, commer- cial or residential, especially where low maintenance is of prime importance. The perfect balance of technical functionality, precise dimensions and visual appeal unique to porcelain pavers, cannot be matched by other paving materials such as concrete or stone.

  10. E L E VAT E D PAV I N G Architrex porcelain pavers are specifically designed for constructing elevated decks using fixed or adjustable height pedestals. Pedestal support options depend on the configuration of the installation, the intended use, the anticipated loading, the slope or variability of the substrate and the final deck height required.

The closest standard is that applying to concrete paving slabs (EN 1339). Under this test procedure, Architrex porcelain pavers comply with the standard on comparative tests. The shock resistance of porcelain pavers should always be considered with pedestal installations to avoid the risk of damage or injury. Project managers, specifiers and customers should carefully assess the technical specifica- tions of the porcelain slabs in relation to their intended use. Despite the intrinsic density and stiffness of porcelain pavers, slabs may crack or break if a heavy object is dropped from a significant height. Where hard and heavy objects are likely to be used or where floor heights are greater than 4”, it is recommended to apply appropriate reinforcement to the underside of the pavers, such as glued glass fiber mats or metal trays. W I N D U P L I F T When porcelain pavers are installed on a pedestal system, they essentially rely on gravity, their own weight, tight spacing between the pavers and tight containment around the perimeter to keep the pavers in place without movement. The open joint space between pavers allows wind to flow above, below and around the deck surface, which tends to reduce uplift forces somewhat and restricts movement of the pavers. It should not however be inferred that uplifting of the pavers by wind will never occur as it is difficult, if not impossible, to test for every contingency or circumstance where wind uplift may be possible. The only wind uplift test for roofing products known to Architrex is the Florida Building Code 2007 TAS 108 Test Procedure for testing air permeable rigid discontinuous roof systems. Whilst this test procedure may have some relevance to pavers installed in ‘floating’ deck applications, Architrex engaged the Florida International University International Hurricane Research Center to devise a test program to evaluate the resistance of porcelain pavers to wind uplift under typical installation parameters. Variables incorporated in the test program using FIU’s Wall of Wind facility included different wind angles, pedestal height and type, parapet wall height, paver layout and the use of locking devices along the parapet walls. A summary of the test results is available on request but this test data should not be construed as offering or implying a guarantee or warranty of any kind, including but not limited to warranties of merchantability or fitness of porcelain pavers for a specific purpose. 13 Architrex
