Versatile pool deck product
November 15th, 2010
This product is handy for pool decks and building structures where the weight-bearing load needs to be minimised, as it enables paving without using heavy bedding sand or screeds.
VersiPave GP is a system based around adjustable plastic paver supports. This means pavers can be installed without the need for sand or screeds, and so is perfect for rooftops and balconies or decks where weight minimisation is a priority.
What’s more, because it is stable and secure without needing to be adhered or fixed into place mechanically, it is easy to access service cables or pipes laid underneath. The waterproofing membrane can also be reached very simply, should leaks subsequently occur.
Made from 100% recycled plastics, VersiPave GP is lightweight but strong enough to support a 2,400 kg load.
VersiPave can be adjusted for falls in the slab or for variations in the thickness of the pavers. Each pedestal has four integrated raised chocks which can be adjusted in 1mm increments from 24mm to 35 mm, as well as having 10mm and 30mm ‘snap on’ extenders to raise the height of the paving base up to 150 mm.
VersiPave GP ensures pavers are unaffected by mould or algae, and efflorescence is eliminated as pavers are not embedded in sand or screeds.
Rapid drainage, facilitated by VersiPave GP, substantially reduces weight bearing loads on building structures.
