On one of the images you can see “Kegelnocken" and “Stumpfnocken"

What would the “Nocken” in general be?

I thought maybe “ribs” but that doesn’t seem quite right.

Asker: Thanks. I think you’re right that I have a bit of freedom setting the term. In the end, I went with “rib”.

"Nocken", (Wülste und Nuten), deutscher Begriff: Verzahnung interlocked pavers or setts

Explanation:
Dieser Vorschlag erhebt noch keinen Anspruch auf Allgemeingültigkeit und dient als Anregung für die weitere Suche nach dem fachtechnisch korrenten Begriff für diese Ein- und Ausbuchtungen, "Raupen" und "Zähne". Auf deutschen Seiten konnte ich keine Pflastersteine mit "Nocken" finden, geschweige den irgendwelche Übersetzungen. Meist wurde diese Pflastersteine als verzahnt bezeichnet, damit sich diese nicht gegeneinander verschieben und den gleichen Abstand einhalten.

Jetzt zu meinen vorläufigen Suchergebnissen:

Sett (paving)
A road paved with setts
A sett, also known as a block or Belgian block,[1] is a broadly rectangular quarried stone used in paving roads and walkways.[2][3] Formerly in widespread use, particularly on steeper streets because setts provided horses' hooves with better grip than a smooth surface, they are now encountered rather as decorative stone paving in landscape architecture. Setts are often referred to as "cobblestones", although a sett is distinct from a cobblestone in that it is quarried or worked to a regular shape, whereas the latter is generally a small, naturally-rounded rock. Setts are usually made of granite.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sett_(paving)

Cobblestones are typically either set in sand or similar material, or are bound together with mortar. Paving with cobblestones allows a road to be heavily used all year long. It prevents the build-up of ruts often found in dirt roads. It has the additional advantage of immediately draining water, and not getting muddy in wet weather or dusty in dry weather.
:
Cobblestones were largely replaced by quarried granite setts (also known as Belgian block[2]) in the nineteenth century. The word cobblestone is often used to describe such treatment. Setts were relatively even and roughly rectangular stones that were laid in regular patterns. They gave a smoother ride for carts than cobbles, although in heavily used sections, such as in yards and the like, the usual practice was to replace the setts by parallel granite slabs set apart by the standard axle length of the time.
In England, it was commonplace since ancient times for flat stones with a flat narrow edge to be set on edge to provide an even paved surface. This was known as a 'pitched' surface and was common all over Britain, as it did not require rounded pebbles. Pitched surfaces predate the use of regularly-sized granite setts by more than a thousand years.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cobblestone

paver is a paving stone, tile,[3] brick[4] or brick-like piece of concrete commonly used as exterior flooring. In a factory, concrete pavers are made by pouring a mixture of concrete and some type of coloring agent into a mold of some shape and allowing to set.
:
An interlocking concrete paver is a type of paver. This special type of paver, also known as a segmental paver, has emerged over the last couple of decades as a very popular alternative to brick, clay or concrete.[5] An interlocker is a concrete block paver which is designed in such a way that it locks in with the next paver. The locking effect allows for a stronger connection between pavers and with this interlocking effect the paving itself is resistant to movement under traffic.[

Interlocking pavers enable pavers to be installed without the use of mortar, and they can be an ideal way to build cobblestone pathways around your Burlington home.
