Patterns
Patterns are determined by the shape of a specific paving block. The three patterns shown below are the basic patterns for the more traditional oblong or interlocking blocks.
The laying pattern is an important factor in the performance of block pavments and, based on tests and field observations, it is widely accepted that blocks laid in herringbone bond do perform better under traffic loads than pavements laid in stretcher bond or basket weave.
Other blocks, because of their diffferent geometry, can produce a far greater variety of patterns. Even the simplest block, however, is perceived to produce a multitude of patterns when two or more colours are used.
