1. Installation f Guidelines EE AZEK Pavers AZEK Pavers should be installed in accordance with the local building codes and the installation guidelines included below AZEK Building Products Inc accepts no liability or responsibility for the improper installation of this product AZEK Pavers may not be suitable for every application and it is the sole responsibility of the installer to be sure that AZEK Pavers are a fit for the intended use Since all installations are unique it is also the installer s responsibility to determine specific requirements for each flat roof application AZEK Building Products recommends that all applications be reviewed by a licensed architect engineer or local build ing official prior to installation Pages 1 3 Basic information on laying AZEK Pavers and designing a project for all applications Pages 4 5 Flat Roof Application Pages 6 8 Non Permeable Landscape Application Pages 9 10 Permeable Landscape Application Page 11 Deck Resurfacing Application Page 12 Concrete Resurfacing Application A IMPORTANT Installation of AZEK Pavers is not recommended under the following conditions e Do not install where standing above ground water conditions are anticipated Proper sub base grading and other storm water management designs should prevent the appearance of water at grade level In areas where small pooling occurs adhesive can be used to affix the pavers to the grids to increase installation in2. Sweep in Joint Sand and Tamp Pavers The same sand used for the sand bed can be used for the joint fill This is a clean sharp and well graded coarse sand Do not use overly fine sands coarse sand will perform better The standard specification for joint sand is ASTM C 33 e Start by spreading the sand across the pavers with a shovel e Allow the sand to dry completely this will make it easier to get into the joints e Use a broom to spread the sand across the joints sweeping in all directions e Continue to spread and sweep the sand while tamping the pavers o This can be done with a hand tamper or plate compactor When the joints appear to be filled to the desired level sweep the installation clean of any remaining sand or dust e The pavers will return to their original color once the pavers have been cleaned by rain e Additional joint sand applications may be necessary after rain or settling of the joint sand occurs IMPORTANT Do not use polymeric sand with the AZEK Paver system As the system expands and contracts it may cause the polymeric sands to break away from the edges of the pavers AVPIG_v2 01 13 PAGE 9 AVPIG_v2 01 13 E AZEK Installation f Guidelines Pavers Page 2 of 2 A TAMPING PAVERS AND JOINT FILL The final steps to finish up the installation are tamping and sweeping chip rock between the pavers This will even out small undulations and lock the pavers into place Tamp Compact Pave
