GENERIC INSTALLATION GUIDE / PAVERS – 3

EXCAVATION
1.1
If pipes or wires are located in the area to be excavated, contact the
representatives of the company concerned before the work is started.
1.2
To ensure sufficient drainage, excavate the soil to obtain a minimum
incline of 2 % (20 mm/m or 1/4 inch per foot).
1.3
1.4
The excavation contour should extend beyond the surface to be
paved by at least 300 mm (12”). Ideally, this distance should be
1 to 1 1/2 times the thickness of the foundation. The stability of the
project depends on this measurement, which ensures that the paving
stones at the edge will be as well supported as those in the centre.
Level the bottom of the excavation with a rake and if the soil is
sandy, compact it with a vibrating plate or roller. It is preferable not
to pack clay soil at this stage. in this case, the use of a geotextile
membrane placed between the natural soil and the foundation is
recommended to prevent foundation contamination by clay and
ensure greater stability. Refer to the chart “Excavation depth and
minimum foundation” to get the minimum excavation required
(Ref: photo #1).
LAYING THE PAVING STONES
5.1
Arrange the paving stones according to the pattern chosen with a
90° angle if possible. Proceed by walking on the paving stones
(Ref: photo #6). Fill the holes left by the pipes.
5.2
Paving stones are manufactured with side spacers that will set a
space of 3 mm (1/8”) between each paver. A space of 2 mm must
be allowed for paving stones without spacers.
5.3
To obtain an even distribution of colour and texture, it is recommended
that you choose paving stones from more than one cube at a time.
Moreover, working across each cube always gives the best results.
5.4
Check the alignment of the pavers (after every five rows installed)
and adjust them, if necessary, using a screwdriver.
5.5
Install paving stones up to the last row. To avoid having to cut paving
stones later, determine the position of the curbs to finish with a
complete paving stone.
5.6
If necessary, you can cut the paving stones using a cold chisel or
specialized tools such as guillotine or a concrete saw (Ref: photo
#7). It is recommended that you use a chalk line to mark the paving
stones to be cut. If you have to use a guillotine to cut the stones,
make sure that the cut is at a slight angle as pavers cut this way are
much easier to install. If you use a concrete saw, keep away from
the paving stones already installed, since the dust and dirt from
the sawing will permanently stain them. Wear safety glasses when
cutting concrete products.
5.7
On both sides of the paving surface, proceed with installing the
Celtik curb, the Celtik Mega curb, the Anglia curb and the Melville
curb (Ref: photo #8). You can also use Permapro Plastic Curb for
small installations.
FOUNDATION
2.1
Spread and compact the 20-0 mm (0-3/4”) stone in 100 mm (4”)
layers. Lightly water the 20-0 mm (0-3/4”) stone to make tamping
easier. To ensure an adequate foundation, compact the stone several
times with a vibrating plate, roller, or a jumping jack (Ref: photo
#2). Once this stage is completed, you will be able to see what the
final result will look like. You can verify the final level of the pavers
by placing a paver on a guide. (Ref: photo #3) Refer to the typical
installation drawings (see page 6).
CURB
3.1
Installing Universal® curb: Before you finish the foundation, proceed
immediately with the installation of the Universal curb. Begin by
installing the curb on one side. Before installing the curb on the
other side, temporarily place a row of paving stones in order to
determine the ideal distance and thus to determine the position of
the other curbs and avoid having to cut pavers later. Installing Celtik
curb, Celtik Mega curb and Anglia curb: To install these types of
curbs, see step 5.7 of section 5 – Laying the paving stones.
FILLING THE JOINTS
6.1
INSTALLATION BED
4.1
Spread between 15 mm (5/8”) and 25 mm (1”) of concrete sand or
screening (Ref: photo #4). Bear in mind that a 25 mm (1”) bed will
be reduced down to 15 mm (5/8”) in thickness once compacting is
completed and after the paving stones are installed.
4.2
Level the concrete sand using two (2) 25 mm (1”) diameter pipes
and a straight plank (Ref: photo #5). Any significant variation in bed
thickness may cause irregularities in the paved surface.
4.3
Once you have finished laying the paving stones, stabilize them
using a vibrating plate (Ref: photo #9). This operation will settle the
stones into the bed while levelling the surface. Begin by brushing
a thin uniform layer of joint-filling sand over the paving stones and
into the joints (Ref: photo #10), and then use a vibrating plate. For
best results, run the plate two or three times in each direction. This
operation will allow the sand to penetrate suitably into the joints and
the paving stones to settle approximately 10 mm (3/8”) into the
bed. (For improved performance, use Permapro polymeric sand in
accordance with the instructions provided on the bag).
Installation of a detachable neoprene sole (or layer) has been
proven to be an additional protection against the risk of concrete
spalls when installing certain types of paving stones (Amalfi, Canvas,
Greenwich, Mega-Arbel, Trafalgar and Mega-Trafalgar, Vendome and
Mondrian paving stones).
THE
6.2
Repeat the sand-spreading and vibrating procedures until all of the
paving-stone joints have been filled. Remove the excess sand with a
brush. The final level of the sand in the joints should be about 3 mm
(1/8”) lower than the level of the paving stones.
6.3
If, after a few days, some joints are not properly filled, repeat the
procedure. It is recommended to perform an annual maintenance of
the joints between the paving stones.
6.4
We suggest setting aside a number of paving stones for replacement.
Make sure you do not compact the screenings or the sand before
laying the pavers on the installation bed.

STEP 1
Place 3 pavers together in order to form
a cloverleaf.
STEP 2
Add more sets in multiples of 3 pavers
(cloverleaf) to fill in the surface to be covered.
STEP 3
Complete the balance of the surface to be
covered with a single paver for the final result.
STRAIGHT BORDERS
In order to achieve a straight border for a patio
and/or sidewalk, you must install the pavers in such
a way that it surpasses the surface completely.
Saw cut the excess pieces. Tighten the pavers
together using a few rows of Mega-Trafalgar
or Vendome pavers sealing them
with Permapro Plastic Edge.

EXCAVATION
1.1
If pipes or wires are located in the area to be excavated, contact the
company representative concerned before the work is started.
1.2
To ensure sufficient drainage, excavate the soil to obtain a minimum
incline of 2% (20 mm/m or 1/4 inch per foot). The slope may be
further reduced to as little as 1% if there is good overall drainage on
the site. When in doubt, obtain a detailed analysis of the site drainage
(slopes, soil type, layout, etc.) from an expert.
1.3
1.4
The excavation contour should extend beyond the surface to be paved
by at least 300 mm (12”). Ideally, this distance should be 1 to
1 1/2 times the thickness of the foundation. The stability of the project
depends on this measurement, which ensures that the slabs at the edge
will be as well supported as those in the centre.
Level the bottom of the excavation area with a rake and if the soil is
sandy, compact it with a vibrating plate or roller. It is preferable not
to pack clay soil at this stage. in this case, the use of a geotextile
membrane placed between the natural soil and the foundation is
recommended to prevent foundation contamination by clay and ensure
greater stability. Refer to the chart to get the minimum excavation
required (Ref: Photo #1)
LAYING THE SLABS
5.1
Arrange the slabs according to the pattern chosen with a 90° angle
if possible. Proceed by walking on the slabs (Ref: photo #6). Fill the
holes left by the pipes.
5.2
Slabs are manufactured with side spacers that will set a space of
3 mm (1/8”) between each slab. A space of 2 mm must be allowed
for slabs without spacers. The use of a bricklayer’s line, a level, a
square, and a specialized handling tool (possibly including vacuum
lifting equipment) will be required.
5.3
To obtain an even distribution of colour and texture, it is recommended
that you choose slabs from more than one cube at a time. Moreover,
working across each cube always gives the best results.
5.4
Check the alignment of the slabs after every five rows installed
and adjust them, if necessary, using a screwdriver. Also, check
the uniformity of the surface regularly, and use a soft-head mallet
to correct any units which do not meet the required degee of
uniformity.
5.5
Install slabs up to the last row. To avoid having to cut slabs later,
determine the position of the curbs to finish with a complete slab.
5.6
If necessary, you can cut the slabs using specialized tools such as
guillotine or a concrete saw. It is recommended that you use a chalk
line to mark the slabs to be cut. If you have to use a guillotine to cut
the slabs, make sure that the cut is at a slight angle as slabs cut this
way are much easier to install. If you use a concrete saw, keep away
from the slabs already installed, since the dust and dirt from sawing
will permanently stain them. Wear safety glasses when cutting
concrete products.
5.7
At the perimeter of the slab-covered surface, proceed with installing
the Celtik curb, Celtik Mega curb, Anglia curb,Melville curb or a
plastic curb (Ref: photo #7). The curbs should be installed directly
on the compacted granular foundation.
FOUNDATION
2.1
Spread and compact the 0–20 mm (0-3/4”) stone in 100 mm (4”)
layers. Lightly water the 0–20 mm (0-3/4”) stone to make tamping
easier. To ensure an adequate foundation, compact the stone several
times with a vibrating plate or a jumping jack (Ref: photo #2). Once
this stage has been completed, you will be able to see what the
final result will look like; the surface should be uniform, with no
bumps or depressions greater than 13 mm (1/2”) in 3 m (10 ft). You
can verify the final level for the slab installation by placing a slab
on a guide (Ref: photo #3). Adjust the surface, if necessary, with
compacted 0-20 mm (0-3/4”) stone.
CURB
3.1
Installing Universal curb: Before you finish the foundation, proceed
immediately with the installation of the Universal curb. Begin by
installing the curb on one side. Before installing the curb on the
other side, temporarily place a row of slabs in order to determine the
ideal distance and thus to determine the position of the other curbs
and avoid having to cut slabs later. Installing Celtik curb, Celtik
Mega curb, Anglia curb or even a plastic curb: to install these types
of curbs, see step 5.7 of laying the slabs.
FILLING THE JOINTS
6.1
Spread concrete sand over the slab, let dry. If necessary, then work
it into the joints by brushing in all directions (Ref: photo #8). (For
improved performance, use Permacon’s Polymeric sand)
6.2
Remove the excess sand. Repeat steps 6.1 and 6.2 if necessary. Do
not use a vibrating plate on the slabs once they have been installed.
However, for certain types of slab, it may be possible to use a small
vibrating plate placed over a protective rubber membrane or plywood
sheets. This method must be used with care to protect the units
against breakage.
6.3
If, after a few days, some joints are not properly filled, repeat
the procedure.
6.4
We suggest setting aside a number of slabs for replacement.
INSTALLATION BED
4.1
Spread the first layer of concrete sand between two 25 mm-(1”-)
diameter steel pipes placed parallel to each other on the granular
foundation (Ref: photo #4). Level the material by sliding a straight
plank across the two pipes (Ref: photo #5). Compact the layer
between the two pipes using a vibrating plate, without moving the
pipes. Spread a second layer of uncompacted sand between the
pipes to fill the space left by the compaction (approximate depth of
6 mm or 1/4”) and level once again using the straight plank. This
method will facilitate the subsequent installation of the slabs. Fill
the spaces left by the pipes which were used as levelling guides.
Repeat the same steps for the entire surface of the work. Any
significant variation in the bed thickness may cause irregularities in
the paved surface. Never use installation-bed material to make
important corrections to the compacted granular foundation.

INSTALLATION OF AN IRREGULAR PATIO OR SIDEWALK — WITHOUT CUTTING
STEP 1
Begin by laying 3 slabs at the centre of the
surface to be covered. Place 3 slabs together
to form a cloverleaf.
STEP 2
Add more sets of 3 slabs (cloverleaf)
to fill in the surface to be covered.
STEP 3
Complete the balance of the surface to be
covered with single slabs for the final result.
INSTALLATION D’UN PATIO OU D’UN TROTTOIR – POURTOUR DROIT
STEP 1
Begin by laying half a slab
at the left-hand side.
STEP 2
Continue by fitting more sets of 3 slabs (cloverleafs)
against the others. The cutting will be done when
the entire surface has been covered.
STEP 3
Keep the cut-off pieces of slab to fill in the
empty spaces. For some width increments of
40” the loss can be limited.
It is also possible to create patios, pathways, sidewalks or stepping stones with wider joints.
Use the same technique described above by leaving an average 50 mm (2 in) space
between stones.

GENERIC INSTALLATION GUIDE / RETAINING WALLS – 29
22/10/14 2:56 PM
EXCAVATION
1.1
Dig a trench. The excavation depth must allow for a granular foundation
of a minimum thickness of 150 mm (6”), as well as the buried depth
of the first rows of modules of the wall being built. Also calculate that
10% of the total height of the wall (150 mm or 6” minimum) should be
buried in the ground. The width of the trench will depend on the type of
block selected. You should also leave a space of at least 300 mm (12”)
at the back of the wall to build a drainage system. (See photo #1).
PREPARATION OF THE BASE
2.1
Cover the rear and bottom of the trench with a geotextile membrane
to prevent soil from blocking the drainage system (see illustration
section). The membrane should project about 300 mm (12”) beyond
the top of the slope so it can be folded back on the drainage system
when in place. The geotextile membrane can sometimes be placed
right behind the wall (to be undertaken following step 4).
FOUNDATION
3.1
BACKFILLING THE WALL
5.1
Fill in the space behind the wall. The backfill can be composed of
20 mm (3/4”) clean stone as shown in the illustration section, or
of draining sand (see photo #6). The geotextile membrane must be
installed at this stage (behind the wall as shown in photo #6 or at
the rear of the trench as in the illustration section).
CONSTRUCTION AND COMPLETION OF THE WALL
6.1
Lay the next rows and backfill the space at the back (step 5)
approximately every 200 mm (8”). (See photos #7 and #8).
Use capping modules to top off the wall if available for your
selected type of wall (see photos #9 and #10). We recommend
using Permapro concrete adhesive to secure them.
*NOTE
: This guide describes the installation of a standard gravity wall of
a given maximum height. (Consult the table of wall specifications
on page 33 to check the approved height of wall selected). Some
walls can be made higher with geogrid reinforcement. Consult a
specialized engineer or Permacon’s engineering department to find
out more on the design specifications for your wall.
Prepare a 150 mm (6”) foundation of 0-20 mm (0-3/4”) stone
(see photo #2). in the case of clay soils, we strongly recommend
increasing the excavation depth. Compact with a jumping jack or
vibrating plate (see photo #3). Level the surface.
FIRST ROW
4.1
Lay the first row of blocks, level them on the compacted foundation
according to your layout (see photo #4). On this foundation, at the
back of the wall, install a 100 mm (4”) diameter perforated drain
and connect it to the existing drainage system. The drain can be
wrapped in a geotextile membrane. (See photo #5). The drain
should be covered with 20 mm (3/4”) clean stone or sand during
step 5.

DESCRIPTION
With a maximum height of 42 inches, the Celtik wall is considered the
standard in the landscaping market. Celtik is reminiscent of old stone
structures typical of the Irish and Scottish countryside. Its rich texture
and variety of modules gives you a choice between the uneven look of cut
stone and the more linear look of a brick.
Benefits
•
Patented anchor pin system located at the back of the block makes
it possible to:
–
Build sloped or vertical walls with minimum cutting, chiselling
or using a guillotine
–
Easily create a radius or curves

ANCHOR PIN SYSTEM
The Celtik Wall anchor pin system is designed to facilitate the
construction of walls with a maximum height of 42 in (1.1 m). The
special pin system is designed to stabilize the overall structure and guide
the installation of modules. The dual-position system allows for the
construction of vertical or 9° sloped walls. Modules are delivered with
two different anchor pins: a regular pin with blades (C1) and a second pin
without blades (C2), designed for the construction of corners.

CONSTRUCTION OF A CELTIK® WALL WITH THE 225 mm MODULE
It’s easy to give your Celtik wall a more natural look by combining three
different module sizes that break up the horizontal lines as much as
possible.
UNITS
The Celtik wall is made up of blocks, namely modules. The Celtik module is available in
225 mm
three thicknesses: 90 mm (3 9/16 in), 135 mm (5 5/16 in) and 225 mm (8 7/8 in).
(8 7/8 in)
the 90 mm modules are available in four lengths:
175 mm (6 7/8 in), 265 mm (10 7/16 in), 345 mm (13 9/16 in)
and 435 mm (17 1/8 in)

A SIMPLE AND LOGICAL BUILDING SYSTEM
The whole Celtik wall system is based on a grid 225 mm (8 7/8 in) high and 610 mm
Before you start to install your Celtik wall, you must calculate its entire length and
(24 in) long.
height. It is important to calculate the height of the Celtik wall in multiples of
225 mm (8 7/8 in). As for the length, multiples of 610 mm (24 in) are suggested to save
you from having to cut the blocks.

VISUALIZING THE CELTIK MODULE COMBINATIONS
On the basic grid, it is easy to see the combinations of the 225 mm (8 7/8 in) high and
610 mm (24 in) long modules.
When you see all of the installation options, you will get exceptional results.
Notes:
22/10/14 2:57 PM
STEP 1 – SIMPLE BUILDING PROCEDURE
FOR THE CELTIK WALL (225 mm MODULE).
Calculate the length of the wall in multiples of 610 mm (24 in) and the height of the
wall in multiples of 225 mm (8 7/8 in).
Foundation layer: Start the installation by arranging one layer with modules of the same
thickness (90 mm or 135 mm) on the compacted foundation.Installing the first layer:
Place the combinations of modules in the following manner:
a) Place a 225 combination followed by a 90/135 combination
and a 135/90 combination.
b) Alternate the 90/135 and 135/90 combinations to break up
the horizontal lines as much as possible.

STEP 2 – INSTALLING THE SECOND LAYER:
a) Start the second layer with a single I or J module in order to break up
the alignment of the vertical joints.
b) Set aside the other part of this combination module for completing
the other end of the wall.
c) Place the balance of the second layer according to the regular instructions.
610 mm (24 in)
STEP 3 – INSTALLING THE THIRD LAYER:
You can vary the vertical lines even more by separating
the 225 mm I and J modules within the same layer of blocks
(see illustration).

STEP 4 – MAXIMUM HEIGHT FOR THE CELTIK WALL
a) The maximum height of the Celtik wall with the 225 mm module is 900 mm (± 36 in),
excluding the cap.
b) When you build a wall to the maximum permitted height, it is important to fill
the 225 mm (8 7/8 in) module with stones in order to retain their structural value.

Walls can also be capped using Celtik standard modules, in one of two styles:
• Flush
• Overhanging
In either case, the modules must be properly secured with adhesive to ensure wall
stability. Save straight modules (D or H) for capping the straight portions of the wall.
435 mm
(17 1/8 in)
Use bevelled modules for the curved portions; less cutting will be required.

CAPPING A CORNER
Prepare a Celtik straight capping module as follows.
1 Cut using a cold chisel or a guillotine, 100 mm (4 in)
from one of the ends of the capping module.
2 Flip the module over and cut off the retaining lip.
3 Hit the newly cut face with a sledge hammer to achieve the same
finish as for the other sides.
4 Install this corner cap first before proceeding with the installation
of the other capping modules.

CELTIK® BEVELLED CAPPING MODULE
DESCRIPTION
LAYING IDEAS
Celtik bevelled capping modules are designed to offer greater flexibility
for straight walls, S-curves and regular curves, while keeping cutting to
a minimum. Our system includes three modules of various dimensions
(A-B-C). Each module is reversible and treated on both sides, which
means more possibilities in terms of bent radius. Always lay the curved
portions of the wall first and keep the remaining modules for straight wall
portions. We recommend properly securing the modules with adhesive to
ensure wall stability.
STEPPED WALL CAPPING WITH 90° CUT
A straight wall visible on both sides.
The Celtik bevelled capping module can be used to construct a wall
visible on both sides such as bench, small balustrade, etc. Stack the
Celtik bevelled capping modules and spread concrete adhesive between
each row.

CELTIK CAPPING MODULE IS TREATED ON BOTH SIDES.
Benefit
Celtik bevelled capping modules are treated on both sides. This finish
enables excavation or laying of sod inside the wall, beneath the top of
the wall. The finish is equally attractive on each side.
DIFFERENT COMBINATIONS
Different combinations of capping elements can be used to
create uniform bends of varying lengths, making them ideal
for creating semi-circular walls.

CREATING STEPS
1. Installing the first row.
Lay a 10 cm x 20 cm x 40 cm (4 in x 8 in x 16 in) solid block or universal curb so that it will
be flush with the interlocking paving stone. The solid block will support the concrete riser.
Insert the anchor pin C1
in this position
2. Installing the second row
Lay a Celtik riser 225 mm (8 7/8 in) on top of the 10 cm x 20 cm x 40 cm block. Make
sure that the anchor pin C1 is inserted in the right position (see illustration). Fill in the
space behind the riser with 20-0 mm (0-3/4 in) crushed stone and compact.
BACK OF BLOCK
3. Fastening the step
Lay a 385 mm (15 in) Celtik step module on top of the Celtik riser. Make sure to insert the
square anchor pin C3 (see sketch and cross section).
4. Installing additional rows
Repeat steps 1, 2 and 3 until desired height is reached.
Note: We recommend the use of Permacon Permapro concrete adhesive to secure the
Celtik concrete riser and the Celtik step module.
Note: Celtik steps and risers give a step height of 180 mm (7 in). If the height of the wall
and the step must be the same, you must ensure that the height of the wall containing the

PERMAPRO POLYMERIC SANDS
DESCRIPTION
The Permapro polymeric sands are joint fillers for concrete pavers and
slabs made of calibrated sand and polymeric binder materials. Once the
sand has been applied, it is sprayed lightly with water. It then becomes
very hard and literally locks the concrete pavers together, whether the
surface is horizontal or not. The principal use of the Permapro polymeric
sands is to make the paver or slab joints much more resistant than
traditional sand joints. Permapro offers polymeric sands, either grey,
beige or ivory in 30-kg bags.
All Permapro polymeric sands have the following advantages:
•
Help prevent weeds and damage due to insects and erosion
•
Can be used for pavers with or without false joints
•
Do not stain concrete pavers or slabs
•
Can be stored outside on a pallet (original packaging intact)
•
Effective for joints up to 25 mm (1 in) wide
•
Sold in plastic bags to withstand rain and humidity
Note: The use of Permapro polymeric sands is not recommended for clay pavers such
as the Greenwich paver.

PERMAPRO SEALANTS WITH WET, SATIN OR NATURAL FINISH
Permapro sealants have been specially formulated to
provide pavers three different looks: wet (wet and shiny
look), satin (wet and dull look) and natural (maintains the
original look of the pavers). Furthermore, they provide
additional protection to pavers likely to be stained by
grease, oil or even dead leaves.
Permapro wet- and satin-finish sealants are acrylic polymerbased products that cover the concrete of the pavers to
form a protective coat. The natural-finish sealant is a
fluorochemical polymer-based product and penetrates the concrete pores without leaving a film on the pavers. All of the sealants are available in two
sizes: 3.78-litre or 18.9-litre containers.
Benefits
•
Reduce penetration of dirt, oil and grease
•
Withstand ultraviolet rays and therefore last longer
•
Give the pavers a different look and accentuate their colours (glossy and
NOTE: Pavers must be clean before using a sealant. Prior clean-up with Permapro cleaning
products may be required. We recommend that you use a sealant within a year of installing
new pavers.
