Rooftop Paver System Is Tested to Withstand 145-mph Winds

Tectura Designs—a Wausau Tile Inc. brand—is a provider of architectural products, including pavers, site furnishings, custom precast concrete, custom precast terrazzo and terrazzo tile.

Tectura’s Lok Down system is a proprietary pedestal system for rooftop pavers. A top plate, made to match or contrast with the pavers, fits into a recess, allowing for a flush walking surface. Colored bolts then tighten the system together for a total rafted paving system. Lok Down is the only system backed by full-scale tests that simulate the effects hurricane conditions on rooftop paving products. The Lok Down system is tested to withstand wind speeds of more than 145 mph.
