PARKING LOT DESIGN KINSTON, NC

In February, 2006, construction of a 20 stall employee parking lot consisting of four different types of permeable pavements and standard asphalt was completed at the City of Kinston Public Service Complex in Kinston, NC.

The permeable pavement sections consist of porous concrete (PC), permeable interlocking concrete pavers (PICP) with 8.5% void space and pea gravel fill, PICP with 12.9% void space and pea gravel fill, and concrete grid pavers ( CGP) with sand fill. Each permeable section covers a 1200 sq. ft. area and contains four parking stalls. Two standard asphalt sections are located to the outside of the permeable pavement sections, each 1200 sq. ft. in size and containing two parking stalls. On the ends of both asphalt sections, two 10 by 20 foot sections of asphalt serve as the entrance ways to the parking lot. A profile of the lot is shown .
