ICPI Annual Report 20133
Solidifying our FutureOn October 16, 1993, 66 charter members gathered in Chicago to initiate the first organizational
meeting of the Interlocking Concrete Pavement Institute. Then Chairman Larry Nicolai’s enthusiastic
opening comments were optimistic stating that the meeting was “a turning point in the history of
the paver industry in North America.” Since then, ICPI has grown from 66 members to over 900 with
an operating budget of $3 million and the industry has grown to over 485 million sf of residential
and commercial applications.
I’m excited to announce that this year marks the 20th anniversary of ICPI. On March 27,
2014, ICPI members, special guests and honorees will come together in New Orleans to cel-
ebrate the accomplishments of the concrete paver industry over the last two decades. This time
marks another “turning point” as our industry transitions from the introductory stage to one of
growth and maturity. In 2013, ICPI has focused on laying the groundwork for solidifying our future as an association and
industry.
First, a new dues structure was implemented for producers, associates and contractors. The Dues Equity Special Com-
mittee engaged a consultant to help identify dues models and assess their likely impact on the association. The consul-
tant conducted interviews and surveys to understand the motivations, perceptions and expectations of ICPI members
in all member categories. This research was vital to developing an equitable dues structure and truly understanding the
needs and expectations of our members, their drivers and motivations, as well as ICPI’s vision of success. The new dues
model helps to provide necessary funds to sustain the association. Additionally, a special committee has been estab-
lished to identify programs and services for supporting slab producers.
Next, ICPI committed to purchasing a permanent headquarters in Northern Virginia. Purchasing office space will save
the Institute approximately $40,000 to $50,000 per year. ICPI members supported efforts by contributing more than
$400,000 in a capital building campaign to offset building expenses. The savings from this building investment allows us
to develop additional programs and services to increase awareness, acceptance and use of segmental concrete pavement
systems in North America. Construction was completed in February 2014.
Also in 2013, ICPI implemented a new strategic plan which sets the direction of the association for the next three
years. The Strategic Planning Committee met with key industry leaders and staff, conducted an environmental scan to
identify key industry trends, surveyed the membership and reviewed other key industry research. This was followed by an
intensive full day planning meeting where ICPI’s core purpose, values and goals were identified. A revised vision, mission,
goal areas, objectives and key performance indicators were established (see page 2).
Last, ICPI demonstrated its commitment towards achieving its mission by establishing the Commercial Technical Pro-
motion (CTP) Team. The team’s purpose is to increase interlocking concrete pavement (ICP) and permeable interlocking
concrete pavement (PICP) share of the total commercial pavement market in the United States and Canada. To achieve
this, the industry needs a technically skilled and knowledgeable sales force ready to meet the demands of the commer-
cial market. The industry has earned an increasing share of the residential market, but the commercial market represents
an area of potential growth. ICPI’s strategic plan includes resource investment to develop the commercial market by pro-
viding support and training to the Commercial Technical Promotion Team members.
Over the last 20 years, ICPI focused on supporting its members in assuring that segmental concrete pavement systems
are the preferred choice for low-speed vehicular and pedestrian pavements in North America. While the past 20 years
have been exciting for our industry, I’m looking forward to the next twenty. ICPI will continue its commitment to members
in creating awareness and promoting use of the world’s best pavement system.
Sincerely,
Dave CarterICPI Chair of the Board

Commercial Market PromotionThe commercial market includes specified projects for industrial, commercial, institutional, municipal, single and multi-family
housing developments, and government agencies. ICPI’s strategic plan includes investments to develop the commercial market.
Commercial Technical Promotion Team In 2013, ICPI established a Commercial Technical Promotion
(CTP) Team to increase the interlocking concrete pave-
ment and permeable interlocking concrete pavement share
of the total pavement market in the United States and
Canada. To achieve this, ICPI has committed to develop a
technically skilled and knowledgeable sales force ready
to meet the needs of the commercial market. There are
currently 189 CTP Team Members that have committed
themselves to this challenge. Team members attend train-
ing webinars, serve as a resource to design professionals
in their markets, present at least 3 ICPI presentations to
design professionals in the commercial market with feed-
back on content, and provide data on their local markets
for evaluation.
Empowering the Commercial Sales Force through Education ICPI is devoted to offering education programs to support a sales force to better interact, collaborate with and sell to design
professionals, developers and municipal officials. In 2013, ICPI and NCMA jointly launched a new sales course to prepare sales
representatives who sell segmental concrete products in the commercial market. Content includes an overview of competitive
systems and provides technical background specific to permeable interlocking concrete pavements, segmental retaining walls
and articulating concrete block. Related software, product specifications, plan review, and bidding procedures are also covered.
Course participants received a generous amount of resources. The new ICPI-NCMA Commercial Sales Course held December 3-5,
2013 in Rosemont, IL saw an excellent turnout for its first launch with 46 attendees. This joint association event is expected to
be held annually.
Increasing Awareness and Acceptance of Segmental Pavement Systems by Design Professionals and Specifiers ICPI staff has made numerous presentations at design
professional workshops, national design professional
related association seminars and conferences and
quarterly webinars with continuing education credits.
Workshops, Seminars, and Conference Sessions Presented by ICPI Staff at Industry Events In 2013, ICPI staff presented at events to help achieve
acceptance of ICP and PICP. These events included:
• ASCE Green Streets & Highways Conference,
Austin, TX
• California Coastal Commission & Northcoast Stormwater Coalition, Eureka, CA
• FHWA Sustainable Pavements Technical Work Group, Baton Rouge, LA
• Indiana Green Industries Expo, Indianapolis, IN

Webinars for Design Professionals Webinars provide a cost-effective, convenient and timely education platform for building awareness
of segmental concrete pavement among design professionals. ICPI continues to expand its data-
base of design professional contacts for promoting webinars. In 2013, the following webinars were
presented:
• Effective Permeable Interlocking Concrete Pavement Maintenance
• Using PICP Design Pro Software
• Road Applications for Interlocking Concrete Pavement
• Comparing PICP to Other Infiltration Pavement Systems
• PICP Maintenance
• Geosynthetics Used in Hardscape Construction
Presentations for Design ProfessionalsICPI presentations provide a great opportunity to reach design professionals and city officials. Of-
fering these presentations is an effective way to begin the process of building relationships. Most
design professionals need to earn continuing education credits in order to maintain their professional
licenses. All ICPI presentations are registered with AIA, ASLA and/or GBCI and each provides one
continuing education hour. In 2013, ICPI saw increased deployment of presentations by members
to firms across the U.S. and Canada, with more than 116 presentations delivered to more than 1,134
design professionals.
LTAP Jointly funded by the Federal Highway Administration and State Departments of Transportation, the
Local Technical Assistance Program (LTAP) provides a superb platform for increasing awareness of
permeable interlocking concrete pavements. After making a presentation on permeable pavements
at their national convention in July, LTAP is hosting a permeable pavement webinar in 2014 featuring
Bethany Eisenberg with VHB Consultants and ICPI staff. LTAP centers provide technology transfer on pavement design, construc-
tion and maintenance to state and local road agencies across the U.S. and Canada. Pending success of the webinar, others may
follow with more in-depth presentations on permeable pavement options including PICP.
State BMP ManualsICPI staff participated on committees formed by state stormwater agencies to create or update guidelines on best management
practices for permeable pavements. Agencies include those in Minnesota, Wisconsin, Washington and California’s Caltrans. Re-
gional guidelines were updated for three county agencies in the San Francisco Bay area. Participation continues with an agency
in Pennsylvania.

Improving Installation through Education Under the Education Committee, the Contractor
Education Subcommittee expanded recognition
for concrete paver installers with a roadmap
called the Installer Development Program. This
provides a long-term structure for the profes-
sional development of concrete paver installers.
ICPI’s Installer Development Program offers in-
dividuals the path to a more prosperous future
through certification and designations.
Concrete Paver Installer CertificationCertification can be achieved by individuals
who build residential and commercial inter-
locking concrete pavements. Certification requires installation experience and continuing education is needed to
maintain cerfication.
Residential Paver Technician DesignationParticipants demonstrate advanced knowledge and skill in
complex residential paver installations including outdoor living
space design and construction, as well as specialty applications
such as raised and multi-level patios, fireplaces, fire pits, grills,
outdoor kitchens and pool decks.
Commercial Paver Technician DesignationParticipants understand best practices for the installation of in-
terlocking concrete pavers in industrial, commercial, institutional
and municipal applications. These include specialty uses such as
roofs, slabs, and bitumen set paving units, among others.
ICPI Announces New Accreditation Program for Paver Installation Companies
In July 2013, ICPI launched a new accreditation program for paver installation companies. The Accredited Paver Installation Company (APIC) program recognizes contractors that meet installation best practices and provides promotional opportunities for their commitment to build according to industry-established guidelines.
The APIC program fulfills an industry need to highlight companies that implement quality construction and craftsmanship while following sound business practices. The program provides third party credibility from a peer association by recognizing skills, knowledge and adherence to industry best practices. Accredited companies receive marketing support from ICPI to design professionals, commercial and residential project owners. For more information on this exciting new program visit www.icpi.org/apic.

Education to Ensure the Future Growth of the IndustryA strategic objective for ICPI is
promoting segmental paving
technologies in university curricula.
The objective is educating students
in landscape architecture and civil
engineering programs on ICP and
PICP compared to other pavement
types so when students graduate
and begin specifying projects, they
are already aware of the world’s
best pavement option.
Paveshare
(www.paveshare.org)
The Paveshare website provides
technical materials and design
concepts using segmental concrete
pavements in a concise, easy-to-
use online format. It provides an innovative approach to exposing landscape architecture professors and students
to interlocking concrete pavement and permeable interlocking concrete pavement systems. The site continues
expanding with design ideas, project examples, and exercises for use in lecture and studio educational settings.
PCA Professors’ Workshop Shares Concrete Knowledge
ICPI Director of Engineering, Robert Bowers, P, Eng. met with more than 20 civil, architectural and construction
engineering professors from U.S. universities at the Portland Cement Association’s (PCA) Skokie, IL, offices for the
PCA Professors’ Workshop, July 15-19, 2013. He demonstrated Permeable Design Pro software and reviewed the
Civil Engineering modules “Introduction to Interlocking Concrete Pavement” and “Permeable Interlocking Concrete
Pavement.” Discussions enabled participants to share innovative ways to teach concrete applications. Professors
appreciated the opportunity to obtain critical information to supplement and develop their concrete curriculum on a
variety of concrete subjects in one concentrated workshop.
PICP Specialist DesignationThis designation is provided to individuals that demonstrate their knowledge and experience of best practices for
permeable interlocking concrete pavement installation for commercial and residential applications.
New Contractor Webinar SeriesICPI released a new series of contractor webinars free to ICPI members, providing 4 CE credits each year towards
certification renewal. ICPI has expanded its network of continuing education providers. ICPI continues to provide
on-demand learning and other continuing education opportunities for certification renewal. In 2013, more than 80
ICPI contractor courses were held in the U.S. and Canada, with nearly 1,700 participants educated on industry best
practices for paver installation.

Communicating Benefits of Segmental Pavement SystemsAn important initiative in building broader awareness is continual communication to members, users and specifiers of segmen-
tal concrete pavements systems. ICPI communicates through its website, Interlock Design Magazine, publications and several
e-newsletters.
www.icpi.orgThe ICPI website continues as the top
resource in reaching federal, state and
local officials, design professionals and
contractors. In 2013, ICPI revised the
website’s menu items making it easier
to navigate. Additionally, the Market-
ing Committee conducted a thorough
review of the site and recommended
a redesign to showcase a more streamlined, inspiring and
easy to use web presence. The redesign will focus on mak-
ing the ICPI website the premier online resource that inspires
members, design professionals and municipal officials to
specify segmental concrete pavement systems. Pending
funding approval, the new website launch is anticipated in
late 2014/early 2015.
The Paver Express The Paver Express provides bi-weekly e-news to keep mem-
bers and other industry professionals current with industry
news that impacts daily business operations. This year, ICPI
expanded distribution to all industry professionals to further
promote the benefits of segmental pavement systems and
association resources.
Interlock Design MagazineInterlock Design is the only trade publi-
cation dedicated to increasing readers’
knowledge of technical considerations,
inspiring the creative application for inter-
locking concrete pavement and perme-
able interlocking concrete pavements and
highlighting commercial and residential projects. The magazine
also communicates construction best practices and association
resources to design professionals and contractors.
In 2013, Interlock Design, won a bronze EXCEL award for Best
Overall Redesign! The EXCEL award was given by the Associa-
tion of Media & Publishing to ICPI’s 20-year old publication.
The national award is considered a premiere recognition in the
association publishing industry.
ASCE PICP Standard In 2011, ICPI initiated a contract with ASCE to develop a
national standard on PICP design, construction and mainte-
nance. This effort is expected to be completed at the end of
2014. The standards committee consists of PICP designers,
researchers and users from across the U.S. and Canada. The
deliverable from this committee is an ASCE/ANSI national stan-
dard that can be adopted by state and local stormwater and
transportation agencies.
New ICPI Tech Spec bulletin: Construction of Permeable Interlocking Concrete Pavement Systems
Earlier this year ICPI released the newest
addition to its popular Tech Spec techni-
cal bulletins, Tech Spec 18: Construction
of Permeable Interlocking Concrete Pave-
ment Systems. The new bulletin sum-
marizes permeable interlocking concrete
pavement (PICP) and provides guidance
on best construction practices.
Industry Standards ICPI staff participates on ASTM and CSA committees governing paving product standards and liaisons with the American Asso-
ciation of State Highway Officials (AASHTO), American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), the U.S. and Canadian Green Building
Councils, to represent industry best interests. ICPI’s participation on ASTM and CSA committees has led to improvements in exist-
ing paver standards and test methods.

increase in Canada• 4.9% of total paving product production in North
America• 75.6% PICP production to commercial/municipal
market• Approximately one-fourth of all commercial paver
salesConcrete Paving Slabs Sales
• 8.6% increase in Canadian production over 2011• 34.1% of total paving product production in North
America • 84.3% slab production to residential market
Interlocking Concrete Pavement Industry OutlookResults from the annual ICPI/NCMA Industry Sales Survey indi-
cate that the segmental concrete pavement industry continues
a steady economic rebound from the recent recession. This
year’s survey respondents included 73 manufacturing compa-
nies, most of which reported improvements from the previous
year’s survey. Sales increased by 2.2% for U.S. segmental con-
crete paving production in 2012, up from 4.17 to 4.26 million
square feet per producer.
Permeable interlocking concrete pavement continues as a
high growth product to meet national, provincial, state and
local regulations for reducing stormwater runoff. In the U.S.
there was a 53.3% increase in production over 2011 and a
25.6% increase in Canada. Permeable pavers represent 4.9%
of total paving product production in North America or about
one-fourth of all concrete paver sales in commercial/municipal
applications.
This year, concrete paving slabs have shown significant growth
as the trend continues toward larger units in commercial
and residential pedestrian applications. This is the case
especially in Canada, where manufacturers experienced an
8.6% increase in production over 2011. Concrete paving slabs
represent 34.1% of total paving product production in North
America.
ICPI’s industry sales survey represents an accurate and up-to-
date sales information for the segmental concrete pavement
industry in North America. The 2013 survey reports on 2012
sales data and estimates annual paver sales from a same
respondent sample to the universe of paver manufacturers.
The survey was conducted by Industry Insights, a professional
services survey firm specializing in trade and professional
organizations.
ASTMIn 2013, ICPI members and staff sup-
ported ASTM approval of changes to:
• C936 Standard Specification for Solid
Concrete Interlocking Paving Units
that make abrasion testing and requirements optional;
• C140 Standard Test Methods for Sampling and Testing
Concrete Masonry Units and Related Units that now
adjust for differing compressive strengths of concrete
pavers with various thicknesses; and
• C1781 Standard Test Method for Surface Infiltration Rate
of Permeable Unit Pavement Systems. This test enables
comparison to another ASTM developed for pervious
concrete in 2009.
Work continues on a product standard for concrete paving
slabs.
CSA The new edition of CSA
A231.1 and A231.2 com-
pleted public review and
was approved by the CSA
A231 Committee in November 2013. The new edition should
be published in February 2014. The new standard provides
better guidance on the curing and conditioning of compres-
sive strength samples and a non-mandatory annex discussing
the use of the testing procedures defined in A231.2, on larger
concrete units that do not meet the definition of a paver.

ICPI Responds to the OSHA Proposed Rule on Silica The U.S. Department of Labor’s Occupational Safety and
Health Administration announced on August 23rd, a proposed
rule aimed at curbing lung cancer, silicosis, chronic obstructive
pulmonary disease and kidney disease in America’s workers.
The proposal seeks to lower worker exposure to crystalline
silica. ICPI opposes a silica regulation that would significantly
lower the existing permissible exposure limit and create an
even lower actionable limit that would require unreasonably
expensive ancillary requirements and extraordinary engineer-
ing changes in order to comply.
ICPI joined the Construction Industry Safety Coalition
(CISC) which is criticizing the proposed regulation and
the many substantive and procedural flaws within. Be-
cause of the complexity of the regulation and the many
health, legal and economic impacts, many associations
obtained more time from OSHA to analyze the document
and prepare comments for the public record. ICPI joined
other members of the Construction Industry Safety Coali-
tion (CISC) in penning the letter to OSHA. ICPI developed
a website page with resources and information on silica
which will be updated regularly. ICPI has also joined a
concrete product group to critique the general industry/
manufacturing aspects of the proposed regulation. ICPI will
submit multiple comments and will testify at the upcoming
silica hearings in Washington, DC.
Implementation of ICPI’s Permeable Pavements Provision in the MAP-21 Transportation Bill ICPI’s Authorization Bill language in MAP-21 created the pa-
rameters for USDOT/FHWA to work with ICPI and permeable
pavements issues. ICPI is continuing to insert itself into the
FHWA structure, build knowledge, contacts and relationships
Government Affairs
Representing the concrete paver industry, ICPI continues implementing legislative and regulatory lobbying initia-
tives benefiting member business interests. A central feature of ICPI’s lobbying activities is to indelibly brand
permeable interlocking concrete pavements (PICP) as an environmentally friendly, “green” technology that can
provide substantial stormwater runoff reduction, reduce flooding, improve water quality by enhancing filtration
of stormwater runoff, retain local hydrology, and facilitate municipal low impact development objectives. ICPI is
urging Congress and key federal agencies that PICP can play a major role in emerging, evolving federal policies
to improve the environment, and should be promoted and integrated in federal policy.
toward seeking work with FHWA and its allies on permeable
pavements. In July, 2013, ICPI attended and presented at the
national FHWA/Local Technical Assistance Program (LTAP)
Conference in Boise, Idaho. ICPI observed how the LTAP net-
work works, how LTAP personnel interface with state and local
transportation officials, and how ICPI might access the LTAP
network to engage outreach and education on permeable
pavements. Subsequently, ICPI has initiated a relationship with
LTAP and is presenting a webinar on permeable pavements
hosted by FHWA in February 2014.
ICPI Presented Legislative Proposal for the Successor to MAP-21 to the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee ICPI has presented its legislative proposal to the House Trans-
portation and Infrastructure Committee. The language was
prepared in consultation with the ICPI Government Relations
Committee. The proposal represents a sequential follow-on to
the legislation that ICPI added to MAP-21 in 2012. It expands
USDOT authorization to include demonstration projects for
specific purposes. Further, it includes training of state and
local transportation authorities with respect to PICP, a need
that has surfaced based upon ICPI’s work with the LTAPs and
confirmed in private meetings with FHWA staff. ICPI is well-
positioned and is expanding its lobbying to support the overall
successor bill to MAP-21, the vehicle for the ICPI language.
ICPI Adds Language to Omnibus Appropriations Bill, Now Signed into LawICPI was successful in placing language in the Omnibus Ap-
propriations Bill that was signed into law during the week
of January 13, 2014. The ICPI language expands upon ICPI’s
MAP-21 provisions and urges USDOT/FHWA to spend appro-
priated funds on expanded paver research and technology

transfer into the marketplace. Previously, the Senate Appro-
priations Committee, with the decisive support and assistance
of Senator Susan Collins (R-ME), accepted and included the
ICPI-drafted language in the Committee Report to accompany
the Senate version of the Transportation, Housing and Urban
Development (better known as THUD or “T-HUD”) Appropria-
tions Bill. ICPI continues to build its brand as a legitimate
stakeholder in both authorizations and appropriations in
transportation.
PaverPACThe ICPI PaverPAC provides the opportunity for members
interested in the future of the interlocking concrete pavement
industry to contribute to the support of selected members
of Congress. PaverPAC is the political voice, and the politi-
cal asset, of ICPI members in advancing their legislative and
regulatory agenda in Washington, DC. PaverPAC solicits and
accepts voluntary personal contributions for expenditures
that influence the selection, nomination, or election of such
representatives.
During its short existence, PaverPAC has already achieved fed-
eral “qualified” status while building its coffers and contribut-
ing to a growing list of political candidates, who demonstrate
leadership, support business and construction, show an inter-
est in transportation issues that impact ICPI members, and
share views of ICPI members.
Canadian Government Relations Subcommittee ICPI is working to become a corporate partner of the Federa-
tion of Canadian Municipalities and gain access to the more
than 3,000 municipalities across Canada by participating in
their Sustainable Communities Conference, their Annual Meet-
ing and other opportunities. ICPI is also working to identify
key decision makers in 10 selected municipalities that are
leaders in sustainability and will become targets for future
promotional efforts.
ICPI Annual Report 201314
The ICPI Foundation and the Brick Industry Association (BIA) co-funded a research project with the University of Pittsburgh to develop a sidewalk smoothness mea-surement device. The University of Pittsburgh is the same group that conducted wheelchair-pavement interaction studies for ICPI and BIA in 2002 and 2004.
The measurement technology funded by ICPI and BIA developed a device called PathMeT which was prototyped and presented at the Technical Commit-tee meeting at the 2013 ICPI Summer Meeting. The University’s Dr. Pearlman presented this device and related data developed for the U.S. Access Board indicated that new segmental pavements generally comply with proposed smoothness criteria from his research on wheelchair user acceptance. Where there is non-compliance, it is typically due to improper construction or lack of maintenance.
The smoothness criteria developed from Dr. Pearlman’s data have been giv-en to the U.S. Access Board for possible inclusion in proposed new ADA Design Guidelines for the public right-of-way. These guidelines will be published in 2014 as a proposal from a U.S. Department of Justice Notice for Proposed Rule Making (NPRM). Additionally, a draft standard for measuring sidewalk surface smoothness using PathMeT has been introduced to ASTM Committee E17 on Vehicle-Pavement Systems that might be referenced in the new design guide-lines. Development of smoothness/vibration standards favorable to segmental pavements could better position the industry over the long term, ultimately selling more pavers.
ICPI Foundation Research
The ICPI Foundation for Education and Research advances knowledge in interlocking concrete pavement
through technical research and development of education programs. In 2013, several research projects
were of note.
UNHSC issued their final report on two years of monitoring of PICP on Hood House Drive in the university campus center. The 13,500 sf (1,350 m2) drive and parking lot in Durham, NH, reduced runoff volume and pollutant mass removals some 95 percent. Monitoring water infiltrating from about half of the PICP area included pollutants such as sediments, zinc, petroleum hydrocarbons, and nutrients. Built over moderate infiltration soils, the pavement saw significant volume reductions such that no single rain event generated more than 5 gal (20 L) of discharge for un-derdrains in the base. Additionally, the study confirmed that open-graded bases and soil subgrades do not heave from winter freezing and thawing.
This project’s success is due to the Foundation and ICPI jointly funding the research contract, plus contributions from ICPI members, the Northeast Concrete Masonry Association, and the Northeastern Cement Shippers Association for mate-
rials and construction of the PICP test area. The 54-page report can be downloaded from the UNHSC website.

University of Pittsburgh Sidewalk Smoothness Study Update
ICPI Annual Report 201315
UC Davis PICP Structural Testing UpdateAs a pressing need for PICP market development, structural testing and validated design charts rank high. To address this need, the ICPI Foundation supported co-funding from the California Nevada Cement Association and the Concrete Masonry Association of Cali-fornia and Nevada members for full-scale structural testing and de-velopment of design charts for PICP. Computer modeling and full-scale load testing will be completed by the University of California Pavement Research Center (UCPRC) in Davis. The ICPI Foundation support includes some of the project costs, all construction costs, and project administration. Additional Foundation support includes review of the test program deliverables and review of the data for application to freeze-thaw areas by an outside consultant. About 2,600 sf of permeable pavers are being donated by an ICPI mem-ber. Caltrans has agreed to provide technical review of the project
and its results. Project deliverables are expected in late 2014.
NC State PICP Research Project UnderwayThe Foundation also approved a funding request from the North Carolina State University to monitor a small PICP park-ing lot on low infiltration soils owned by the City of Durham, NC. The US EPA, the City of Durham, and an ICPI member are also supporting this project. This proposal can likely provide data on nutrient reductions through detention/de-nitrification via a raised subbase underdrain. The ~1,000 sf test area construction was completed in July and monitoring began in October 2013 and continues for 14 months. Deliverables will help address questions from stormwater agencies on nutrient reduction on low infiltration soils.
TRCA PICP Research Report SubmittedAnother project funded by the Foundation is a project by the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) to continue monitoring of various permeable pavement types (pervious concrete and PICP) at their parking lot near Toronto. Funding provided by the ICPI Foundation and other contribu-tors has allowed for the continuation of monitoring the site beyond the original project term for an additional two years. The monitoring consists of impervious asphalt, pervious con-crete, and two PICP designs, both contributed by Foundation donors. The 70-page report on the favorable outcome of the first two years of monitoring is available on TRCA’s Sustain-able Technologies Evaluation Program website.

The Landscape Architecture Foundation Receives Grant to Develop Educator Tools for Teaching Landscape PerformanceTo accelerate the adoption of landscape performance in
design education, the ICPI Foundation has provided the LA
Foundation the opportunity to offer ten $2,500 mini-grants to
select university faculty for the spring 2014 term. Participat-
ing faculty will work with LAF to develop and test one or more
models for integrating landscape performance into standard
landscape architecture course offerings, such as research and
methods, site planning and analysis, design studios, and other
lecture or seminar courses. The ICPI Foundation grant allows
the LA Foundation to award a total of $25,000 in grants to
educators, with five grants made in the 2013-2014 academic
year and five in 2014-2015. Grant recipients were announced
in November 2013 and will work closely with LA Foundation
and its Education Committee to finalize the teaching propos-
als, which will then be implemented during the spring 2014
semester. Course materials developed through the Landscape
Performance Education Grants will form the basis of a new
“Resources for Educators” section on the LA Foundation web-
site, which will include assignments, syllabi and other resourc-
es to help bring landscape performance into the classroom to
better prepare the next generation of design professionals.
University of Missouri Receives a PICP Hydraulic Testing and Design GrantProfessor John Kevern, PE received a grant to test the hydrau-
lic capacity of PICP at various slopes in a laboratory setting.
The project will help the industry better understand surface
hydraulics of PICP especially when joints collect sediment.
The project deliverables can be used in Permeable Design Pro
software, the emerging ASCE PICP standard, and in ICPI design
literature. More importantly, the deliverables can rationalize
seemingly arbitrary impervious–permeable surface ratios pro-
vided in state and local PICP guidance documents. A key de-
liverable is a design chart that relates testing with ASTM C1781
(for vertical surface inflow) to horizontal flows. Generic PICP
shapes will be tested and exposed to sediment loads typical
to urban parking lots. The project begins in January 2014 and
proceeds for 18 months.
Martha VanGeem, P.E. Awarded a Grant to Develop Product Category RulesAt the 2013 Annual Meeting, the ICPI Technical Committee
endorsed a proposal that will be funded by the Foundation
to develop product category rules (PCRs) for concrete paving
units. The proposal is concurrent with a contract with NCMA
to develop PCRs for concrete masonry units and segmental
retaining wall units. Ms. VanGeem is an expert in assessing
the environmental impacts of concrete. PCRs lay the concep-
tual ground work for conducting life cycle analyses of building
products which are required for the industry and manufactur-
ers in developing and issuing Environmental Product Declara-
tions (EPDs). Now popularized by LEED v4, comparison of
EPDs of various products will become another basis for paving
product selection by design professionals and public agencies.
Foundation Trustees Approve Three New Proposals
ICPI Annual Report 201317
In 2013, ICPI purchased a permanent headquarters in Northern
Virginia. The office space saves the Institute approximately
$40,000 to $50,000 per year. ICPI members supported efforts
by contributing more than $400,000 in a capital build-
ing campaign to offset building
expenses. The savings from this
building investment allows ICPI to
develop additional programs and
services to increase awareness,
acceptance and use of segmen-
tal concrete pavement systems
in North America. Construction was
completed in late February 2014. Contributors leave a perma-
nent mark in our new building and a permanent mark on the
history of ICPI. Contributors are recognized at the four pledge
levels noted below. ICPI appreciates their generous contribu-
tion. Their investment is a visible testament to the strength of
support for the segmental concrete pavement industry.
