Weight Testing:

All the tested Paddock Slabs are capable of bearing the passage of a category SLW 60 heavy duty truck. Sufficient load bearing capacity of the ground according to the provisions of ZTV SoB 04 [2] is a prerequisite. The tested ground reinforcements are suited for application in fire lanes and parking areas for heavy utility vehicles.

Install Instructions:

For areas under heavy usage (riding arena, lunging ring) we recommend an installation in layers consisting of a base layer, an equalising layer, the paddock slab with filling material as separating layer and a top layer or footing.

A permeable layer (approx. 20–25 cm (7.87–9.84”)) of crushed rock, lava or gravel 2 is applied to soil with good bearing capacity 1 and compacted afterwards. A 2–4 cm (0.79–1.57”) equalising layer of grit 3 is subsequently applied and levelled.

The slab 5 serves as separating layer. It is filled with grit, sand or gravel and prevents the mixing of base and footing layer. Separation can be improved by placing a permeable fibrous web 4 under the slab.

Finally, the footing 6 is applied. It may consist of sand, wood chips, fabric based or similar material.

For use in less stressed areas (paddocks, feedlots, access paths) the sub-base can be reduced according to the expected strain or the slab can even be placed directly on natural ground.

It cannot be guaranteed though that the slab will not sink into the ground.
