The quality of the paving paving slabs is depends on the composition of concrete and production technology. There are several types of concrete mixes that are used for the production of paving slabs. It is necessary to allocate the scale of production and its place of use. They can be industrial, and may be small, that is, in the production of tiles at home.
Technological scheme for the production of paving slabs.
The essence of production is as follows. In special forms that may have a different configuration, a concrete mixture is poured, trambed, withstands a certain time, after which the frozen concrete is removed from the forms. After a set of strength within 2 weeks, the manufacturing process is considered complete. In reality, there are some subtleties and dependencies in the production of paving slabs.

Composition composition and its properties
To obtain paving slabs with good strength characteristics, concrete is used, which contains the following proportions of components:
- 1st option. In this case, portland cement brand 500 and low clay sand is used to obtain concrete. The proportion of cement and sand 1: 3;!
- 2nd option. For the preparation of concrete, portland cement brand 500, sand and explosion of granite rubble are used. The discraining fraction takes 5-10 mm. The proportion of cement, sand and discrade - 1: 2: 2 or 1: 3: 1.
In the first and second embodiment, the preparation of the concrete mix is \u200b\u200brecommended to use a plasticizer and a waterproofing additive. Also, the tile preparation solution is often reinforced by polypropylene fibers to improve strength characteristics. Apply fibers as a reinforcing material is suitable in concrete, which consists only of cement and sand. The concrete obtained using the granite dropout is sufficiently durable, and the reinforcement of its organic fibers can be not produced.
When obtaining concrete in the form of a conventional cement mortar from sand and cement, it is important to observe the ratio of sand and cement. Quite often reduce the content of sand in the solution to 2-parts, which ultimately leads to the cracking of the paving slabs. This is due to the fact that as a result of the crystallization of the concrete mixture, severe stressful states occur in the structure of pure cement in the solution, and since the sanding part is not enough, then these stresses are not compensated by sand particles, which leads to the formation of tips of connections, that is, cracks. On the contrary, an increase in the amount of sand (more than 3 parts) can lead to a decrease in the hardness of the finished tile and its gradual destruction.
Adding a granite dropout to concrete significantly reduces the likelihood of cracking and increases product strength.
In case of small-scale production, tiles at home in some cases reinforcement. To do this, cut into pieces of wire with a diameter of 1-3 mm and impose it in the middle of the blurred form. First, half the shape of the concrete are filled, then placed wire and fill the remaining part of the shape concrete. Length pieces of wire usually takes a little less than the length of the diagonal of the product. To reinforce the tile in this way is relevant in the event that its surface will further experience a large pressure, for example, a heavy car will travel to the courtyard and so on.

The process of obtaining finished products
It is best to knead the concrete solution in the concrete mixer: it accelerates the process of the kneading and increases its quality. Priority when mixing: sand, screening, cement, water. Plasticizer and waterproofing additive must be stirred in advance in water. To give a color to the product add pigment. It is important to obtain the required consistency of the concrete mix. The solution must be plastic, but at the same time its spreading is not allowed.
The scheme for determining the mobility of concrete.
One of the important stages of the production of tile is laying the mixture in the form. The form is necessary before filling with a solution slightly lubricate with a special emulsion or ordinary vegetable oil. Next, vibrotols are used for proper tamping solution. These devices due to the emerging vibration allow you to compact concrete in the form, as well as get rid of air bubbles in it. In the home conditions, the use of vibrationtol is not always possible, so the manual traam method is used. During filling the shape of concrete with the help of a wooden cyan, the contents seal. After completion, the surface is smoothed. As a rule, when laying a mixture into shape, it is desirable to shake the latter slightly, it will contribute to a more dense shrinkage of the solution.
Concrete leaves in forms for two days. Then finished tile is removed. If the form surface was pre-lubricated with emulsion or oil, then it is possible to easily remove the tile. Sometimes you can easily simplify this process if the shape is placed under hot water. The water temperature should not exceed 60 ° C. The process of complete drying and hardening of concrete in the finished tile takes about 2 weeks. At the same time, it is necessary to place the product into a privided place, avoiding the temperature drops below 0 ° C or excessive overheating of the room. In the hottime, it is desirable to watery tiles with a small amount of water.
In the process of producing paving slabs, the quality of cement and its proportion in the finished solution is key. In the process of operation, brave elements can be susceptible to significant loads, so the cement used brand should not be less than 500. Cement should be used within its storage period. It is extremely recommended to move away from the proposed. To knead, it is preferable to use a concrete mixer or to make a cement mixture with a drill and a mixing nozzle, since mixing in a manual method can not satisfy the results of obtaining a homogeneous concrete mass.
Exemplary list of necessary tools for the manufacture of paving slabs at home:
- buckets with a well-known capacity;
- master OK;
- level (to check the plane for the installation of forms);
- concrete mixer or drill with a mixing nozzle;
- fulfillment forms required configuration;
- kiyanka or rubber hammer.
Observing technology for the production of paving elements of paving, it is possible at home to get a quality product, the cost of which will be significantly lower than the finished products.

If you have gathered to shove the courtyard, the sidewalk or a garden track, you will be a choice - which paving slabs to use for this.
After reading the article, you will learn how to choose the sidewalk for the courtyard of the house or cottage, which experts recommend using and for what parameters it is chosen. Learn to determine which varieties and types are preferable in one way or another.
Before you begin to choose, ask the question: why exactly the tile? Why not asphalt, not concrete, not scattered and compacted gravel? For what reason it is important for you exactly here to lay a tile? This question will help clearly understand which expectations are associated with the coating, and select the necessary material, form and other tile parameters.
If you need to enter a walkway or sidewalk in the exquisite design of the site, choose a porcelain stonework or a tile of natural stone. If it is necessary to create a feeling of antiquity and monumentality, choose a natural or cast wild stone. To bring memories of the last decades of the Soviet Union, choose the color vibropressed tile.
The cost of high-quality installation of the tile (with the appropriate conduct of the preparatory work and the creation of the correct base) will cost 3-5 times more expensive to fill the concrete or laying asphalt. Even when using inexpensive materials. If you choose expensive materials, laying the tile will exceed the cost of creating a concrete or asphalt track at least 10 times. The reason for this is a high material price and a large amount of expensive hand-made works for which high qualifications are necessary.
Specifications
The main characteristics of tiles include:
- resistance to abrasion;
- frost resistance;
- size and shape;
- cost.
Resistance to abrasion
From resistance to abrasion depends, how long the tile will last under the influence of external factors (shoes and automotive tires). Than this parameter is higher, the larger loads can withstand the tile and the longer it will not be necessary to replace it.
Resistance to abrasion of concrete pavement plates depends on the materials from which concrete was made. The use of quartz or river sand, high-quality grade cement is not lower than M-500 and rubble solid rock (granite, marble, basalt and others) improve abrasion resistance.
This property is a conditional value that is determined according to GOST 13087-81. To determine the value of this indicator, a sample of concrete or reinforced concrete products is carried by using a special machine and abrasive powder.
After a certain exposure time, the sample is cleaned and weighed. The difference between the weight of the original and the resulting sample is resistance to abrasion. It is indicated in grams per centimeter square (g / cm2). The smaller the value of resistance to abrasion, the more difficult to destroy the product from concrete or natural stone.
The best value of resistance to abrasion in porcelain stoneware and stones from natural stone. There are somewhat worse in polymer concrete from granite (marble) crumbs and clinker bricks (tiles). In third place, the vibropressed pavement plate made of concrete, which consists of granite or marble crushed stone. In the last place cast concrete tiles and paving tiles of rubber.
Frost resistance
Frost resistance indicate either the number of cycles of frost-defrost (based on GOST 10060-2012), or on the brand of concrete F100, F200, F300. The higher this value, the more severe frost withstands the tile. From concrete, the F300 brand makes products that hold the temperature below minus 45 degrees Celsius. The F100 brand concrete is designed at temperatures above minus 5 degrees.
Size and form
From the thickness of the tile depends on the load that it withstands. 3-4 cm thick tiles are used for pedestrian tracks and other places where any transport is missing. 4-7 cm thick is used for sites where the movement of passenger cars is possible, over 7 cm is used for any sections.
The larger the length and width of the tile, the more qualitative base is necessary. It is caused by the fact that when the base of the tile is seated with one or two edges, leans towards failure, the other side on the contrary, rises above the surface of the main mass of tiles, forming a kind of "toros".
From the shape of the tile depends on the selection of the laying scheme and the complexity of the dusting of the extreme tiles and the border. Simple-shaped tiles - four- and hexagonal is the easiest way to lay, but also the choice of schemes is limited.
For one-size square form, the scheme "Chess order" and "shift to a fingent" are available, so the drawing is created using a tile of different colors. For rectangular paversing, schemes "Chess order", "Circular laying" and "Christmas tree" are available, and the drawing also create a combination of colors.
Square tile with shift at half a row
For the hexagon, the "Mosaic" scheme is applicable. For wild stones there is no laying scheme, because all the stones of various shapes and size. Therefore, instead of the scheme lay out the drawing. Decorative (artistic) tile by itself is a pattern, so no laying scheme for it does not exist.
If you want to lay out some particular pattern or pattern, make a site plan on a comfortable scale and create a drawing on it. This will help determine the tiles of which color and shape are necessary.
If there are no needed tiles in the stores, contact the manufacturer directly. Most of these firms are taken for the manufacture of tiles for an individual order, however, at a price of 2-5 times more expensive than that which massively produce.
Cost
In 50 percent cases, the cost determines the selection of tiles. The more expensive the tile, the more expensive the services of the employee on its laying. For the device of cheap cast tile, which will last from the forces of ten years, you can hire the brigade of migrant workers, they are doing quickly and cheap. But this approach to the laying of expensive tile will lead to the need for major repairs of the breakfast after 3-5 years.
Laying tiles is the final stage, it requires a heavy and difficult work on the preparation of the soil and the device of the underlying layers. If one of the operations is made poorly or with errors, the deficiency will not last long.
The cost of the tile depends on the price of the source materials, manufacturing technology, brand popularity, manufacturer's income and various transport and trade costs. Therefore, the variation of prices for various models of one type of tile reaches 100 percent.
Do not hurry to buy a tile in the first store. See the proposals of other outlets, visit several firms that produce tiles. The likelihood is great, which will be able to find you need, and at a lesser price than asking in the store.
Remember, more expensive tile is not necessarily better than that that is cheaper. After all, the quality of the tile (within the same type or model) depends on the experience of workers and technologists. If the workers do not violate the technology, check and read the equipment on time (regulate), use the correct ingredients, this approach provides high quality products.
The selection of tiles for paving sidewalks, garden tracks or recreation places is not easy. Now you know what to pay attention to when choosing a tile, what qualities and parameters are really important, and what exactly can be safely ignored. It will help to choose a tile that will suit the price, quality and ideal for the drawing you think.
Choosing a tile for the sidewalk near the private house, you need to make sure that such material is durable and durable.
Conventional consumers can not always appreciate all the functional characteristics of such products. That is why it is so important to demand from the manufacturer or supplier, depending on where exactly you make an order, providing quality certificates and compliance of the products offered.
Choice of paving slabs - criteria and algorithm of action
Naturally, for private construction, curbstone and tile based on a high-quality concrete mix are best suited. Of course, the platform in front of the house can also be asphalt, but the cost of such work will be much higher. Yes, and not always in a limited area there is an opportunity to use a bulky and vigorous asphalt paver. In addition, speaking frankly, the asphalt looks not as aesthetically attractive as a paving.
Tile is also different. Sometimes this choice can be mistaken. Today there are two main technologies for which such products are issued:
- pressing under the influence of vibration;
- casting under the influence of vibration.
Out of direct dependence on which one of them is applied by the manufacturer, the exit will produce high-quality products if all the technical features of the process will be observed. However, some individual companies still use outdated casting technologies and baking tiles in an industrial furnace without the use of vibroplatform. In this case, water can remain in the innermost and cavities of the blocks. In winter, when the temperature on the street is significantly reduced, this fluid, naturally freezes. No need to thoroughly know physics to understand that the density of ice is higher than the density of water. Expanding, the liquid in the frozen state creates cracks and slots on the surface of the product. It is logical to assume that you can't use such a road surface for a long time.
Of course, it is possible to check the paving slabs on strength only during operation. You should still pay attention to the degree of smoothness of such a product. Some consumers come delight from one type of glossy, perfectly smooth tiles, which is offered by many suppliers. It seems that it is covered with a special icing. Despite such decorative features, similar materials have one significant drawback. In winter, again, on such a track it is easy to fall and strongly damage limbs and spine.
Therefore, more rational to choose products with a slightly rough surface. This is relevant especially for those situations where the pavement is used for the carriageway. Additional clutch of the road with car tires prevents serious accidents.
How does the quality of installation tile affect the durability of its use?
No matter how high-quality is a curb stone, as well as other elements of the design, if the installation of them is incorrectly carried out, normally operate tracks and sites near the house you will not be able to. It is not necessary to be very surprised if it will soon have to replace individual sections. Therefore, at the time of the initial installation it is worth paying attention to.
In order for the garden track or the vehicle to the car looks attractive, you need to buy paving slabs. This material is very popular lately: manufacturers have settled the release of blocks of various shapes, thickness, colors. But how to choose a sidewalk tile of proper quality? What should pay attention to? To answer the question, you need to deal with the technology of making paving, with the rules of its laying and other nuances.
Laming, subject to stacking technology, has certain advantages over a monolithic coating of concrete and asphalt:
- due to the presence of gaps between adjacent tiles, the formation of puddles is excluded;
- in the summer, the surface created from the tile does not heat up and does not become softer, but there are no unpleasant odors;
- the greenhouse effect is not created under the coating, which is important for a number of growing decorative plantations;
- if it is necessary to carry out the installation or repair of underground engineering communications, it is enough to disassemble and at the end of work re-lay a tile on a certain area;
- using stones of various colors and shapes, you can create a patterned coating.
Paving tile (photo examples of styling is presented in the article) can be used to create a unique landscape.
Requirements for regulatory documents
It should be known that the basic requirements for the quality of the paving slabs are set out in GOST 17608-91. In the regulatory documentation it is indicated that it must withstand at least 200 frost and thawing cycles, the load during squeezing is at least 30 MPa, the moisture permeability should be no more than 5%, abrasion resistance is not more than 0.7 g / cm². Also GOST determines the maximum allowable deviations from the specified geometric parameters and other characteristics.
For the manufacture of the working mixture, portland cement M500 is used, a small fraction of crushed stone (5 - 10 mm) and sand with graininess up to 2 mm. In order for the hardened mixture to be sufficiently strong, the plasticizer is introduced while mixing the working mixture, which has proven the Czech company "Usov and Prokheza" and the German company Bayer.
The buyer has the right to require a manufacturer or seller to familiarize the quality confirmation certificate issued by an authorized regional certification authority. Such a document is issued on the basis of positive results of laboratory tests of products. In addition, there must be documents confirming the radiation safety of tiles or raw materials used for its production.
Basic blocking
Currently, manufacturers use one of two technologies: the first is based on the pressing of a rigid mixture with vibration, the second - on vibrating materials with additive plasticizers. Both methods allow you to obtain high-quality low-porous products from concrete, but the blocking agent obtained by vibration, exceeds the strength of the pressed, thanks to the use of plasticizers.
The sidewalk tile is also made by handicraft: the plastic form is filled with concrete and stacked on the vibrotol. Without vibratoryropressing, the product will be fragile and long will not last: moisture, penetrating into the pores and freezing in them, will destroy the tile.
For production in industrial volumes, a concrete mixer is necessary, vibrotol, a sufficient number of forms and other equipment. The process is carried out with the next sequence of actions.
- Plastic forms are lubricated with solidol or other similar lubrication: it will make it easier to extract the finished product after drying the mixture.
- Forms are filled with a solution and laid on vibrationtol.
- At the end of the form process, the shape is stored on racks and for uniform drying is covered with polyethylene film. In this state, the product is within a day. The air temperature should be not lower than + 15 ° C.
- The dried tile is removed from the forms heated pre-in hot water at temperatures up to +50 ° C: it reduces the amount of marriage, increases the service life of the paving.
- Finished products are laid on pallets, pallets are tape and covered with film. Summer paving, manufactured in summer, can be used for its intended purpose after 7 days. In winter, she gained strength longer - 28 days. This period must be clarified before purchasing tiles.

How to determine the quality of blocks without accompanying documents
It is not always possible to make sure as a paving, familiar with the certificate of conformity. What to do in this case? First of all, it is necessary to take into account that to create pedestrian zones, sufficient thickness of the blocks of 25-30 mm. For the roadway and parking zone, it is necessary throat (from 40 to 60 mm) paving slabs: it is different and depends on the form and color. Otherwise, you must pay attention to the following.
- To make the surface of products glossy, some unscrupulous manufacturers instead of using special expensive additives are injected into the solution excess water. This leads to a decrease in blocking strength. It is easy to identify such a lack: a slightly slightly knock on one tile on another. The sound that will publish the quality tile will be ringing. Deaf sound - a sign of violation of production technology.
- The color of the concrete blocks from concrete should not be excessively saturated: the amount of pigment also worsens the strength characteristics of the material.
- The presence of clay in the working mixture is pernicably affected. Responding to cement, it destroys the tile when moisture gets into it. Clay can be detected by examining the back of the product: the yellow turn on and stains are signs of the presence of clay.
- If the sidewalk tile is externally attractive, it still does not guarantee its compliance with the requirements of regulatory documents. It should be inspecting the material in the middle, for which you need to split one stone. Pores, emptiness and foreign inclusions should not be. The pigment defining the color of the product must be distributed throughout the material evenly. Coloring only the front part leads to resolving, reduces the service life.
- It is worth avoiding the acquisition of too cheap tiles: it is most likely made of low-quality raw materials or with violation of technology.
- It is important to take into account how long the manufacturer works in the production market for the production of this type of building materials. It is advisable to enlist the recommendations of those who have already used this tile and inspect the sidewalk, posted by it: if the paving slaves served for several years and did not lose its appearance - its quality at the proper level.
- It is necessary to correctly determine and purchase the required amount of material (with a small margin): the color and texture of products from different parties can differ significantly from each other.
Some information about the technology of laying paving slabs
Laming laid in different ways depending on how it will be operated. For household plots, the following technology is suitable.
- Before starting laying, you should decide on the pattern and dimensions of the diligent area to avoid excessive tile cutting and a large amount of waste.
- You need to stock up tool. It will take: shovels (bayonet and soviet), rake, tamping, construction level, geomembrane canvas (geotextile), rule, hammer with a rubber brisk.
- The placed area is required to be cleaned of vegetation (remove the turf) to a depth of 150 mm and the land is tumped. Solid soil can be softened, richly watering with water. This pit must have a bias for draining the rainwater.
- On the sides you need to prepare the Rips for the installation of a curb, the bottom in them is touched and the sand pillow layer is 50 mm. Borders are installed on cement-sandy solution.
- In the entire area of \u200b\u200bthe pit, geotextiles is laid. On top of the web, the sand is poured by a layer of about 40 mm and is evenly distributed using robble. To avoid the surface deformations due to the irregularities of the bottom of the bottom, the cement should be mixed in proportion 1: 10.
- The pillow of a mixture of sand and cement is wetted with water and neatly aligned with the rule.
- The tile is stacked (ranging from the curb) and driven by a rubber hammer. It is impossible to move around the sand: for this, the board is used, which is stacked on top of the tile already driven into place.
- Cutting tiles performed with a grinder with a diamond circle.
- The foundations of the base in terms of the level are leveled by a subtle or sand selection.
- At the end of the laying, the parallery sprinkles with sand, which is then sweeping. This is necessary to fill the seams. After that, the sidewalk is watered with water. It is possible to exploit it the next day.
To arrange the platform for the car, an additional layer of rubble will be required, which is poured and tamped in front of the sand pillow. The reinforcement grid is also needed: it places over sand.

Consider the main questions that you need to know the answer before buying paving slabs:
- What is better: vibrating or vibropress?
There are those who confidently declares that one or another type of paving slabs is better. This is rooted incorrectly. Each view has its pros and cons. We produce both types of paving slabs. We conducted comprehensive tests of our tiles and samples of competitors at the correspondence of GOST. According to the main parameters, such as strength to compression, strength to break, abrasibility, frost resistance and light-resistance (that is, the ability to maintain bright colors) did not reveal the advantages of vibrating or vibropress. Another thing is that the tile of different manufacturers showed a very large scatter in all indicators. The vibropressed paving slabs is made automated and much less demanding of the quality of the components. Due to this, it is a little cheaper than vibrolyant paving slabs. The minuses include a small number of forms and colors. High-quality vibrating paving slabs requires only expensive components, such as washed fractionated sand, crushed stone fraction 5-20, incompatible portland cement brand not lower than 500 and high-quality additives. It makes it more expensive in production, but the appearance and surface quality are beneficial from the vibropress. But, ignorance technology and savings on raw materials will inevitably lead to its rapid destruction.
By buying a tile from us, regardless of the type of production, you can be sure that it corresponds to GOST in all respects and serves you for a long time. - Why is such a spread of prices on the market and why not be cheap for cheap?
The price of paving slabs is made up of the main components: the cost of raw materials, salary of workers and the profit of the manufacturer.
The profit of the manufacturer in this segment is low and is 10-15%, regardless of the other parameters.
The salary of workers depends on their qualifications and the level of production automation. Many firms make their paving slabs cheaper by optimizing the workflow and the use of professional equipment. Others go through the use of low-voltage labor. Which option is preferable, it is not necessary to explain.
The cost of raw materials directly depends on its quality. Unfortunately, unscrupulous manufacturers are often saved just on raw materials. From experience, I will say that the savings can reach 3000-3500 thousand rubles per cube of concrete, and this is 200r / sq. M. And the buyer learns about it only after the winter, looking with horror on its "beautiful tracks". So try to demand, in addition to documents on products, certificates for raw materials. Cement from the nearest store and sand from the "familiar dump truck", unfortunately, very sadly affect the quality of products.
Here, as anywhere, the saying is the saying "I pay twice" - What is the thickness of the paving slabs?
Building GUTs regulate this issue. When laying on a sandy-gravel pillow (the most optimal and common type of laying) is quite enough
- for pedestrian walkways 30-60mm
- for parking cars 60mm
- For places with a constant passage of freight transport (gas station, Avtobaz, etc.) 80mm
High-quality paving slabs has a strength to compress 400kg / sq. Cm with a thickness of 60 mm, and this is a load of 80-200th on one tile. In the entire history of our work there was not a single case that the tile of 60mm with a thickness of 60mm, for example, when driving a car (even cargo).
There is no point in overpaying, buying a tile with a thickness of 80mm to the country section. But it should not be put under the car tile 30mm. - What makes the total cost of paving coverage?
Tile itself - for 2012 it is 450-700 p / m 2
Delivery - individually, somewhere 100-150 p / m 2 (when delivery by the manipulator)
Laying - 600-800 p / m 2
Borders- individually, let another 100 p / m 2
Materials for laying (crushed stone, sand, geotextile) - 200-350 p / m 2
Total at the average prices 1825 p / m 2
Cheap pleasure. And now think again: do you still want to save 100 rubles on the paving slabs and 100 rubles on the laying with the prospect of the smokehouse in a year? - What color to choose?
Subject to the use of high-quality dyes (pigments) for concrete and full-volume proscure you can choose any color. The only exception is green and blue. Their light-resistance is lower. We offer you a coloring tile in red, black, brown (several tones), beige colors. Also very like customers in the color of the stone when the incomplete mixing of concrete 2 different colors is used. It does not affect the sidewalk tile. Often the question arises why the colors are neuropric? To obtain a bright color you need to use or white cement, or a large pigment content (more than 5%). White cement gives the supreme and reduces the frost resistance (the main parameter in our strip). Increasing the number of pigments extremely negatively affects the strength and greatly increases the cost. Brighter and rich colors can be easily obtained by covering the impregnation tile for concrete. - What is the lifetime of paving slabs?
The service life directly depends on 2 indicators of compression and frost resistance. For our band, with strength to compression 300kg / sq. Cm and frost resistance 150 cycles, the service life of the paving slabs from 10 years (regardless of the type of production). Our tile has the following parameters.
Vibropress Strength - 350kg / sq. Cm, Frost resistance 180 cycles
Vibrating the strength - 400kg / sq. Cm, frost resistance 220 cycles
For the construction speakers, the service life of our tile is 20-25 years old.
Do not believe when you promise strength 600kg / sq. Cm and frost resistance of 300 cycles. It is impossible to achieve such parameters in the conditions of production with adequate financial costs. Require the test protocols in accredited building laboratories! - Is it possible to lay paving slabs yourself?
Can. Moreover, there are no special secrets here. The laying process is described in detail on our website in the laying section and on other construction resources. The only thing you will need vibratinglitis. Without it, it will be difficult to compact with a qualitatively.
