2 Product Execution of LEED Version 3 Goals Invisible Structures product line, used in the following ways, may contribute to LEED Certification. Minimum Project Requirements MPR 1: Must Comply with Environmental Laws Grasspave 2, Gravelpave 2, Rainstore 3, and/or Slopetame 2 can help each site comply with NPDES Phase II, an Environmental Law addressing the reduction of NPS Pollution in Stormwater among other things. Sustainable Site Credit 5.1: Site Development Protect or Restore Case 1: Use of Grasspave 2, Gravelpave 2, or Rainstore 3 with permeable cover extends the boundary of site disturbance from 10 feet to 25 feet, allowing for more room to work during construction. Use of Beachrings 2 anywhere on site would not classify as site disturbance. Great for use as walkway or ADA accessible surface. Case 2: Installing Grasspave 2, Slopetame 2, or Rainstore 3 in areas previously developed with asphalt or concrete, and seeding over these areas with native plants, would contribute to the percent of area restored. If the site were earning SS Credit 2: Development Density and Community Connectivity, using Draincore 2 and/or Grasspave 2 in a vegetated roof seeded with native plants would contribute to the percent of area restored. Credit 5.2: Site Development Maximize Open For All 3 Cases: Use of Grasspave 2 and Slopetame 2 will increase the vegetated open space necessary to achieve this credit. If a site also earns SS Credit 2, use of Draincore 2 and/or Grasspave 2 on a vegetated roof will count toward the vegetated area requirement of this credit. Credit 6.1: Stormwater Design Quantity Control All Cases: Use of Grasspave 2 and Gravelpave 2 minimizes impervious surfaces and increases infiltration. Use of Rainstore 3, when installed with an impermeable liner, allows for short or long-term underground water storage for non-potable uses. Use of Rainstore 3, when installed with a non-woven geotextile, increases infiltration and groundwater recharge. Draincore 2 and/or Grasspave 2 on a vegetated roof will minimize impervious surface area. Use of Slopetame 2 will protect stream channel from excessive erosion. Credit 6.2: Stormwater Design Quality Control All Cases: Use of Grasspave 2 and Gravelpave 2 minimizes impervious surfaces, increasing infiltration, and reducing pollutant loads. Use of Rainstore 3, when installed with an impermeable liner, allows for short or long-term underground water storage for non-potable uses. Use of Rainstore 3, when installed with a non-woven geotextile, increases infiltration and groundwater recharge. Draincore 2 and/or Grasspave 2 on a vegetated roof will minimize impervious surface area. Use of Slopetame 2 can be used in vegetated swales to reduce imperviousness and promote infiltration and thereby reduce pollutant load. Credit 7.1: Heat Island Effect Option 1: Use of Grasspave 2 will qualify as open grid pavements system and can be computed toward area calculation. Use of Gravelpave 2 will qualify when filled with gravel material with an SRI of at least 29. Option 2: Draincore 2 and/or Grasspave 2 can be used on a vegetated roof to cover a parking area to reduce heat absorption. Credit 7.2: Heat Island Effect Roof Option 2 and 3: Draincore 2 and/or Grasspave 2 can be used on a vegetated roof to reduce heat absorption. Water Efficiency Prerequisite 1: Water Use Reduction Use of Rainstore 3, when installed with an impermeable liner, allows for short or long-term underground water storage for non-potable water sewage conveyance. Credit 1: Water Efficient Landscaping For Both Options: Option 1. Reduce by 50% (2 Points) or Option 2. No Potable Water Use or Irrigation (4 Points) Use of Rainstore 3, when installed with an impermeable liner, allows for short or long-term underground water storage for irrigation use. Draincore 2 and/or Grasspave 2 can be used on a vegetated roof to collect stormwater and convey it to Rainstore 3 to store for irrigation use. Credit 2: Innovative Wastewater Technologies Option 1: Use of Rainstore 3, when installed with an impermeable liner, allows for short or long-term underground water storage for non-potable water sewage conveyance. Credit 3: Water Use Reduction Use of Rainstore 3, when installed with an impermeable liner, allows for short or long-term underground water storage for non-potable water sewage conveyance. Materials and Resources Credit 4: Recycled Content Rainstore 3 counts as 100% POSTconsumer Recycled Material. Grasspave 2, Gravelpave 2, Slopetame 2, and Draincore 2 count as 100% PREconsumer Recycled Material. Credit 5: Regional Materials All products: Grasspave 2, Gravelpave 2, Slopetame 2, Draincore 2, Rainstore 3, and Beachrings 2 can qualify as long as the project is within 500 miles of Aurora, CO. ISI product line can offer your site Total Stormwater Management and environmental benefits. State of the Earth Innovation with Invisible Structures The Grasspave 2 system consists of a base course, Hydrogrow polymer/fertilizer mixture, the Grasspave 2 structure, sand fill, and hydroseeding or sod. 2
3 Grasspave 2 and Gravelpave 2 combine to make a porous parking lot for the City of White Rock s Operations Yard in British Columbia. This amphitheater s grass, in Lincoln, CA, is reinforced with Grasspave 2 to prevent compaction and remain attractive.
4 Grasspave 2 porous paving allows you to park, drive, walk, ride, or lounge on a beautiful grass surface. It performs the functions of asphalt or concrete pavement, but with the aesthetics of a lawn all while enhancing the environment. Grasspave 2 is a structure which provides incredible load bearing strength while protecting vegetation root systems from deadly compaction. High void spaces within the entire cross-section enable excellent root development, and storage capacity for rainfall during storm events. For example, a 13-inch cross-section (one inch Grasspave 2 with sand and a 12-inch base course) can store 2.6 inches of water 13 inches 3 approx. 20% void space. Stormwater is slowed in movement through and across Grasspave 2 surfaces, which deposits suspended sediment and increases time to discharge. Suspended pollutants and moderate amounts of engine oils are consumed by active soil bacteria, which are aided by the system s excellent oxygen exchange capacity Flexible Porous Paving 2004 CSI Master Format Attractive (real) grass surface Easily installed large rolls Multiple-use surfaces Lower installation cost 92% void space for healthy turf Flexible to resist freeze/thaw and to traverse contours Load bearing 5,721 psi (14,470 kpa) compressive strength Urban heat island mitigation Air-conditioning effect (transpiration) Encourages tree growth and preservation Reduces erosion and soil migration Airborne dust capture and retention Stormwater Benefits: Filters pollutants Recharges groundwater supply Reduces runoff volume, rate, and temperature Reduces non-point-source pollution Stormwater detention in cross-section Applications Include: Overflow and event parking Fire lanes On-street and employee parking Pedestrian access and golf car paths Grass driveways Road shoulder reinforcement and parking Infiltration basin/swale reinforcement RV and boat access road and parking Size: Manufactured in 1-square-meter units ( ) or quarter-meter units (1.65 feet feet) and assembled into rolls.

7 Beachrings2 Description: Since 1986, the patented Beachrings 2 System has provided access over sand surfaces to all individuals, including the disabled. The Beachrings 2 System is manufactured using injection molding for precise size, color, porosity, lighter weight, and lower cost. Rings, ribs, and solid sheet confine sand and prevent it from shifting away under the weight of people, wheelchairs, etc. Sand provides support; a strong plastic surface, which conforms to the ground, provides durability and traction. Our rolls provide a boardwalk wide enough for one or two wheelchairs, or a platform for special events. Beachrings2 provides an attractive, comfortable, and slip-resistant surface for people walking barefoot, in shoes (even high heels!), assisted by walkers or crutches, and for vehicles including; wheelchairs, strollers, bicycles, motorcycles, and automobiles (emergency and law enforcement). Beachrings 2 s standard bright Colorado Sky Blue color makes your access path visible and inviting to users.
