What does interlocking pavers mean?
Interlocking pavers is a misleading term. What actually constitutes interlocking is really a dynamic function containing three different components. They are “rotational interlock” (resistance to tipping), “horizontal interlock” (resistance to spreading), “vertical interlock (resistance to sinking)”. So, that means for lasting quality you need good containment, good subbase and proper paver thickness. Thicker pavers are generally used for driveways and thinner pavers are used for patios. The pavers working together with the base and sand are really an interlocking system.
