Abstract

The nomenclature practiced in the commerce and corresponding technicians to this paving type comprehends the term Interlocking Pavement, which has been used, frequently, of inadvertent manner to designate any pavement type whose coating is constituted by precast paver of concrete, sometimes restricting the pieces with some formats and dimensions. Besides the questions directly tied to pavement itself, it does, of succinct form, a brief report regarding the characteristics of sustainability that involve the application of this type of pavement. In no way it exhausts the subject, but it reaffirms the needs to engineering job with a vision integrated to the environment, like normally happen on vision from architectural. From practices used as the used one in the nomenclature of this type of pavement, undergoing buildings what not always attend to the valid Brazilian norm, works that has performance on this side of the waited or that surprise positively, it imagines the possibility of an organization better about the subject. Thus, it develops a current conditions rising, it does a study of case and, according with owed her data compilation, they seek confirmations regarding the pieces precast of concrete smaller mechanical resistance use possibility that the recommended by ABNT's norm. With intention of collaborating with due normalization for the interlocking paving, it suggests not a revision of the current norm, but the creation of an exclusive norm; for which, a criticism is developed to the valid norm that gathers fundamental topics in the discussion of a basic text for a new norm.
