NC-2009 SSc7.1:Heat Island Effect—Non-Roof

Grass pavers?

Good morning. Anyone know if grass pavers count as hardscape? We've used this material instead of asphalt in a number of locations on a project, but if I can't count it as hardscape, I won't be able to categorize the positive impact on the potential heat island effect. Thanks!

Grass pavers do count as hardscape and should be calculated in the open grid paving system square footage.

Great! Thanks so much, Crissy - both for the information and for getting back to me so quickly. Have a good day! Q
