Herein the blocks have a lower portion remote from the top tread surface which extends further in the horizontal direction and an upper portion of less extent in the horizontal direction, wherein the lower portion of the radial sides (21) of the arc blocks and crown blocks and the outwardly curved sides (19, 20) of the transitional blocks (1) are provided with vertical or perpendicular projections (14, 15) and the edging of the upper portion has lateral surfaces which are irregularly formed in the same way as a natural stone.Other References
