The first document that you can download is a brochure
summarising the Interpave guidance.
Global warming is changing the way we think about our
environment and one serious issue is how we dispose of
the rainwater falling on our properties. Simply allowing
it to run straight off roofs and sealed-up paving into
drains increases the chance of sewers flooding local homes
during heavy storms which are becoming more frequent.
To help home-owners, garden designers and contractors
take a more responsible approach to rainwater management
around domestic properties and alleviate concerns about
sealing up front gardens for car parking, Interpave has
developed guidance.
This download gives straightforward design and construction
guidance for home-owners, designers and contractors,
based on design calculations using sound engineering
principles (suitable for driveways and car traffic only).
