Case Studies – from sealing Marshals paving in the UK to Disneyland

Client Name: Port of Salalah

	Construction of the Port of Salalah commenced in 1996 with the recommendation that the small element flexibly laid paving to be installed should be stabilised preventing sand erosion under heavy duty trafficking and water infiltration via the joint, which under trafficking ultimately leads to liquefaction of the sand laying course and migration of the finer fines…

Client Name: Walt Disney Corporation

The Walt Disney Corporation wished to impose fastidious cleaning regimes in connection with the 125,000m 2 of small element flexibly laid paving. The client was concerned that such cleaning regimes would dislodge the jointing sand requiring significant increased maintenance to maintain structural stability. In addition it was recognised by the client that constant sand erosion from the paver joint would ultimately lead to paver de-stabilisation in turn potentially leading to tripping hazards…

Client Name: Peterborough Council, New England Homezone

This busy residential area in Peterborough is heavily trafficked by local vehicles as well as forming part of a bus route. A traffic calming scheme was put into place which involved the implementation of speed humps utilising Marshall’s Tegula concrete block paving. Over time, the continuous use of heavy vehicles over these humps would contribute to the cause of sand erosion resulting in paver de-stabilisation and eventual pavement failure…

Client Name: Norwich City Council, Town Centre

Norwich City Council had invested heavily in the city centre and, as part of a regeneration project, specified Marshalls ‘Saxon flags’ 450mm x 450mm for installation in ‘Prince of Wales Road’. The light colour flags were chosen for their style and because they blended well with their surroundings. The heavy cleaning regime implemented by the Council in order to keep the paving looking pristine, and the staining from residual oils and chewing gum was causing problems. The sand was being eroded from the 3 – 5 mm joints between the pavers…
