What happens here

For paver blocks used in wall systems or steps, which typically do not have pre-engineered notches, external spacers are required to create the necessary gaps. The video shows H-shaped plastic or rubber spacers being placed between these blocks during construction. These spacers ensure a consistent gap width, allowing for the same flexibility and preventing direct contact between the blocks as they are stacked. This method is critical for maintaining structural integrity and achieving a professional finish in vertical paver installations.

Goal: Create uniform gaps between paver blocks used in walls or steps.
