bricks or pavers

[nyasmom]

can you substitute bricks for pavers under the rail plates?

Welcome to TFP!!

The idea is to distribute the weight so that they are less likely to sink. A brick will not have the same area as a paver, so it may not work as well.

I am all about doing what the manufacture says as to not void the warranty with them or the installer, LOL. If the manual says to use pavers, I would use pavers.

We set up our pool as cheaply as possible, and I found concrete 2" x 12" x 12" pavers at around $1.44 each at HD. Definitely use pavers -- the have more area to displace the weight of your pool than bricks, which will crack or be crushed by the weight of your uprights.
