A paving member comprising:
- a body having a base configured to be supported on a ground surface and a surface configured to support traffic thereon, the body comprising a combination of aggregate and cement mixed at a ratio of 5:1 such that the body is permeable to water to facilitate collection of water therein and delivery of said water to said ground surface.
A method of manufacturing a water permeable paver comprising:
- mixing an aggregate with cement at a ratio of around 5 parts aggregate to 1 part cement;
- adding water to said mixture of aggregate and cement so as said mixture of aggregate and concrete forms a concrete plastic state;
- pouring said mixture in said concrete plastic state into a mould shaped to define the shape of the paver;
- vibrating the mould at a high level for a predetermined period of time until the mixture in the plastic concrete state has achieved a maximum state of compaction;
- and
- placing the mould in a curing chamber for a predetermined period of time to cure the paver.
