Modular block system for roundabouts
A roundabout for vehicular traffic is provided from a plurality of modular blocks arranged in a generally circular roundabout pattern and affixed to a roadway or ground surface at an intersection of vehicle roadways. Roundabouts can be formed in any desired diameter. In some embodiments, the modular blocks can have a trapezoidal plan shape laid out in concentric rings. The trapezoidal shaped blocks can be cut from a length of board having a constant width and thickness. The modular blocks can be provided as a kit of parts delivered to worksite at an intersection of vehicle roadways where a roundabout is desired. Splitter islands, sidewalks, and curbing of blocks having appropriate shapes can also be provided.
LANDSCAPING SUPPORT COMPONENT
Disclosed herein is a landscaping support component and methods of use. The invention relates to the maintenance and partitioning of landscaping elements. In particular, the invention maintains the integrity of hardscape elements.
PATIO BLOCKS WITH EDGE BLOCKS
A kit including a plurality of interior paving blocks and a plurality of edge paving blocks.
WHEEL PAVER-PERIMETER TAPING TOOL
A paver-perimeter taping tool has a frame with a mounting surface and a peripheral edge. A tape-roll support post mounts to the frame and supports a roll of tape. A tape roller mounted to the frame has a rotatable applicator surface that extends beyond the frame's peripheral edge. Tape may extend from the roll of tape to the applicator surface. A wheel mounts to the frame. A handle attaches to the frame and extends to an operator handle end that an operator may grasp to push the tool adjacent a perimeter of pavers. The tool may apply a layer of tape to the paver perimeter, which is adjacent the top surface of the pavers. When particulate is applied to the top surface of the pavers the grout is held in the gaps between adjacent pavers at the perimeter thereof.

Splitter islands, sidewalks, and curbing of blocks having appropriate shapes can also be provided.
Edging member, system, and arrangement for landscaping or paving
Edging members for retaining or restraining installations of pavers, landscaping, and covering materials are constructed for endwise, longitudinal assembly with one another, and to receive stakes of generally V-shaped or generally U-shaped cross section, and spikes driven at angled orientations, for securing the members, on a substrate, against lateral and upward displacement.

Paver locking apparatus and method
The present invention is directed to a paver edge restraint system for reducing shifting of a paver units making up a paved surface having one or more edge restraints installed along at least a portion of the periphery of the paved surface. The paver edge restraint system includes at least one peripheral edging member, at least one edging securement member for holding the at least one peripheral edging member to the ground, at least one paver retention strap that extends underneath a plurality of paver units constituting a portion of the paved surface, and at least one clamping unit mounted on the at least one peripheral edging member for securing and tightening the at least one strap to maintain the joint integrity of the plurality of paver units installed above and adjacent to the at least one strap.
Surface system and method of installation
Provided is a surfacing system, such as an artificial turf system. The surfacing system includes a base member formed from a plurality of interconnected tile members. The base member is configured to accept a suitable amount of infill material. A covering layer such as an artificial turf layer is applied over the infilled base member and secured to a flexible outer border member. Also provided is a method of installing the surfacing system.
