How much stone do I need?
How much stone do I need for the ground?
For shot and gravel song:
• ± 80kg per m², based on a 5cm layer.*For granulometries> 32mm a thicker layer is necessary.• Saca consumption: 1000kg = 0.625m³.
• Covering capacity: ± 12.5m² with a layer of 5 cm.
For pine cortex:
• ± 70L per m², based on a 5cm layer.
• Saca consumption: 1000L = ± 1m³ = ± 600kg
• Covering capacity: ± 14m² with a layer of 5 cm.
For volcanic, slate and chamota:
• ± 50kg per m², based on a 5cm layer.
• Saca consumption: 1000kg = ± 1m³
• Covering capacity: ± 20m² with a layer of 5 cm
How much stone do I need to fill a gabion?
Density of ± 1,650kg by 1m³.
The calculation is very simple to understand with an example, if you have a 100x50x30 cm gav. You have to make the following accounts:
1x0.5x0,3 = 0.15m³
0.15x1,650 = 247.50kg. stone.
*It is always good to calculate an extra 5%, since the gavions when filling them are a little and always enters some more stone than in the theoretical calculations.
Clarifications
ATTENTION!
Granulometries are sizes of sizes
Real sizes can vary slightly, since when talking, for example, 60-80mm stone, it means that the stones pass through a square mesh of 80x80mm. and do not go through a 60x60mm.
This 80x80 mesh can pass a 100mm stone. long and 65mm. wide so there may be a percentage of stones greater than 80 and less than 60mm.
Broken stones
On the other hand, in the stones of more than 60mm. There is a percentage of up to 10% stones that can be broken during classification, washing, loading and downloading, today we have no machinery that avoids those breaks.
In the photos you can see, only real products are seen, broken pieces have been removed.
Dust and sand in products
This product is not washed, so it contains dust, sand and even traces of other products due to processing and transport. This is not a problem when using it; The stone will be washed alone over time or can throw water before using it.
Basic garden grass substrate
Basic substrate for ornamental grass
Components and proportions:
-
Natural land valued: This land provides a solid and nutritious base. When valued, it ensures uniform granulometry and facilitates management.
-
Aged mushroom compost: This compost offers decomposition organic matter, which improves soil structure and provides essential nutrients for the grass.
-
Silica sand: The sand improves drainage and prevents soil compaction, essential for the healthy growth of the grass.
Characteristics and benefits:
- Economy and quality: A balanced mixture that offers the essential for the grass at an accessible cost.
- Improvement of soil structure: The combination promotes good drainage and aeration, vital for the roots of the grass.
- Balanced nutrition: Compost provides organic nutrients that feed the lawn for a prolonged period.
- Easy to use: Ideal for amateur and professionals equally, this substrate is easy to spread and integrates well with the existing land.
Application:
- Distribute a layer of approximately 5-10 cm on the surface of the area where the grass will be sown.
- Mix slightly with the upper layer of existing soil.
- Proceed to plant the grass according to the specific instructions of the chosen seed.
Available presentations:
- Big Bag: 1,000 liters
- In bulk for large projects
This substrate is an ideal option for those looking for a practical and profitable solution for the maintenance and establishment of grass in residential gardens. Its balanced composition ensures a healthy grade growth with minimum maintenance.
