Good morning,
Our driveway is approximately 10 x 5 meters (33 x 16 feet) in size. According to the development plan, we have to use permeable paving, such as drainage or eco-pavers.
We were advised to slightly slope the entire surface and to install a channel drain at one corner.
Is something like this really necessary with drainage paving? I have never consciously seen this and can't quite imagine it.
Best regards,
Katrin

Permeable paving = salt in the soil. Okay, thanks. If salt could have damaged his paving, he might have been more interested in that...
nicely answered without context.
you are not allowed to salt permeable pavers because it is prohibited, AND because it is bad for the soil. oh, I see. grade F.
in short: your permeable pavers will get damaged. more details can be found in the concrete wiki under frost resistance.

Unfortunately, I couldn’t find any further information on this. Other manufacturers just state that salt must not be used, without giving a reason. Some even simply say not to use salt at all.
