Paver Base – Natural Stone Installation for Walkway and Patio

1
Paver Base Installation for Exterior Application
2
Introduction

• Installing natural stone pavers in walkways,
  driveways, and various paths, as well as
  numerous external application, is a trend in the
  construction industry. We know the standard stone
  paver installation process well.

According to it, after leveling and compacting
sub-soil at the required depth, we used to pour
gravel or similar material to create a paver base.

What Is Paver Base?

• Technically, a paver base is consisting of stone
  aggregates. We can get cheaper material with
  desired properties from two known processes.
• Quarry Process (QP)
• Recycled Concrete Aggregate (RCA)

Quarry Process or QP to Create Paver Base

• Stone quarries compose of any of the
  following stone types are ideal for carrying the
  QP to obtain paver base.
• Trap rocks
• Granite
• Gneiss
• Limestone
• Quarry Process is known as different names in
  different regions of the world, such as Dense
  Grade Aggregate (DGA), Shoulder Stone, Dirty
  Stone, Crusher Run, and 3/4 Blended Stone.

Benefits of Quarry Processed Concrete Aggregates
in Paver Base Construction

• Due to its properties, QP proves a perfect
  mixture for creation of paver base for various
  applications.
• The majority of construction projects demand
  concrete aggregates to create interior flooring
  and exterior paving surfaces. Be it concrete
  slabs, bricks, or natural stone pavers CA is
  providing the required strength and fixing base.
• Walkways, sideways, driveways, and various paths
  in patios and gardens are demanding strong paver
  base to keep surfaces even and smooth to walk or
  drive in every season.

Recycled Concrete Aggregate or RCA to Create
Paver Base

• We know aged sidewalks, roads, driveways, and
  various concrete-based building are demoed every
  year in cities and towns. We know about the acute
  shortage of new concrete aggregates.
• Therefore, the construction industry has adopted
  some standards for recycling of these demolished
  scraps to obtain the useful quality of concrete
  aggregates. These scraps crushed or screened as
  per needs to prepare the desired quality of
  recycled material.

Benefits of Recycled Concrete Aggregates in Paver
Base Construction

• The apparent advantages of recycled concrete
  aggregates are the price, as it is the cheapest
  alternative to get material.
• You can obtain quick and expected the quantity of
  material in the vicinity of the construction or
  application sites if any RCA project is running.
• RCA helps in reduction in pollutant material in
  our surroundings. Therefore, it is an
  eco-friendly option, and many government aids to
  support it in various ways.

Concrete Sand or CS to Create Paver Base

Recycled Concrete Aggregate or RCA to Create
Paver Base

• We have seen that during QP for concrete
  aggregates, we get concrete dust along with small
  to larger pieces of rocks. If we washed QP
  concrete aggregates through a screening process
  and assured that no larger pieces of rocks left
  in the outcomes, it will concrete sand.

Benefits of Concrete Sand in Paver Base
Construction

• Concrete sand is known as different names like
  manufactured sand, pipe sand, and utility sand.
• Many construction projects use it CS to create a
  construction base including a foundation base or
  concrete slab or flooring stone base as an
  alternative material for natural sands.
• It is a key ingredient in many cement aggregate
  projects.
• It also used in hot mix asphalt as asphalt sand
  and provided a base layer and leveling medium
  for swimming pools in above-ground designs.

Benefits of a Paver Base

• We already have seen the benefits of paver base
  material at an individual level. However, for
  more comprehension, I would like to cite some
  important benefits of a paver base in general
  sense here.
• The Role of a Concrete Aggregate Layer is to
  provide a firm base to bear the load from the top
  layers of stone pavers. 
• The Role of a C-33 Sand or Concrete Sand Layer is
  to offer an option to mortar application just
  beneath the individual bricks or pavers layer at
  the top.

15
Conclusion

• You can find right and satisfactory answers from
  a leading stone supplier like World of Stones,
  the USA in your vicinity or through its online
  website. You will see a huge inventory of paving
  stones and other natural stone materials for
  outdoor applications. The most competitive rates
  and excellent services, including the delivery of
  stone products, are some differentiators of World
  of Stone, Maryland, in the USA.
