The SRS leveling and support system combines straightforward technology with proven materials to produce a
one-of-a-kind methodology. Start with inexpensive, high-density extruded polystyrene foam stock - 60 psi or 100 psi,
typically Dow Styrofoam or Owens-Corning Foamular - and you have the material basis of the SRS system.
Using specially designed equipment, pedestals are site-customized to the appropriate size, shape, strength,
orientation and location for the job at hand.
Pedestals can be installed for any height, load or slope-steepness requirement - and will support virtually any paver
size, shape or pattern. Surrounding and interwoven conditions such as planters (flush or on-deck), green roofs, water
features, sculptures, and curvilinear borders are no problem. Complex designs and logos can be cut and supported by
the pedestal matrix.
Positioning the pedestal blocks is quick and easy and requires no special shimming or bracing, regardless of pedestal
height. Once the pedestals are in place, leveling begins. A hot-wire trolley riding on a laser-leveled track trims off
excess material above bottom-of-paver elevation. By alternately setting the rails longitudinally and then at right angles
to longitudinally, a large area of pedestal matrix can be completed in a short time. Unless otherwise desired, the entire
top-of-pedestal area will be precisely plumb-level. There is no minimum height to which SRS pedestals can be trimmed,
so SRS can always continue to the edge of the area to be paved and to the surface of the deck. Drains of any size or
shape can be sub-spanned, the pedestals can be cut to fit around deck penetrations of any size or type, and even
sloping moldings at perimeters present no special challenge. There will be a stable base for the pavers regardless of
the irregularity of underlying conditions.
and adjust the elevation of individual pedestals, and there is, of course, no shimming. 70 durometer neoprene spacer
tabs, which are independent of the pedestal base, are inserted in the joints at key locations to accurately hold the
specified joint width; this spacing method allows lateral paver adjustment and provides neat joint lines. The finished
product is a paver field with broad, stable support, ample drainage, and tight tolerances and neat lines throughout.
The SRS leveling system enables creation of the sharpest looking paver decks to be found anywhere.
