How to prepare a sub-base for stabilized gravel



How to Prepare a Substrate for Stabilized Gravel

Preparing a substrate for stabilized gravel involves several key steps to ensure a durable and long-lasting surface:

  • Begin by leveling and compacting the existing soil to create a stable foundation.
  • Apply a layer of crushed gravel with a controlled grain size to enhance drainage and stability.
  • Use a roller compactor to compact the gravel thoroughly, ensuring a solid surface.
  • Prevent gravel mixing with the soil below by adding a layer of non-woven geotextile.
  • Pour the stabilized gravel onto the prepared base, leveling it carefully for an even surface.
  • Compact the entire surface once more to guarantee uniformity and resilience.

Transparent Epoxy Resin Pigments

Transparent epoxy resin pigments are specially formulated to add color without compromising transparency.
