Concrete Grass Paver Circles – Draining Pavement
How much stone do I need?
How much stone do I need for the ground?
For pebble and gravel:
• approximately 80kg per m², based on a 5cm layer.*For particle sizes >32mm, a thicker layer is required.
• Consumption per sack: 1000kg = 0.625m³.
• Coverage: approximately 12.5m² with a 5 cm layer.
For pine bark:
• approximately 70L per m², based on a 5cm layer.
• Consumption per sack: 1000L = approximately 1m³ = approximately 600kg
• Coverage: approximately 14m² with a 5 cm layer.
For volcanic, slate and chamotte:
• approximately 50kg per m², based on a 5cm layer.
• Consumption per sack: 1000kg = approximately 1m³
• Coverage: approximately 20m² with a 5 cm layer
How much stone do I need to fill a gabion?
Density of approximately 1,650kg per 1m³.
The calculation is very easy to understand with an example: if you have a gabion of 100x50x30 cm, you must do the following calculations:
1x0.5x0.3 = 0.15m³
0.15x1,650 = 247.50kg of stone.
*It is always a good idea to calculate an extra 5%, since when gabions are filled they expand a little and a little more stone always fits than in the theoretical calculations.
Clarifications
ATTENTION!
The grain sizes of GRAVELS AND pebbles are sieve sizes
The actual sizes may vary slightly, since when talking about, for example, 60-80mm stone, it means that the stones pass through an 80x80mm square mesh and do not pass through a 60x60mm one.
Through that 80x80 mesh, a stone 100mm long and 65mm wide can pass, so there may be a percentage of stones larger than 80 and smaller than 60mm.
Breakage of pebbles
On the other hand, in pebbles larger than 60mm, there is a percentage of up to 10% of stones that can break during sorting, washing, loading and unloading; to this day we do not have machinery that prevents such breakages.
In the photos you can see, only real products are shown; broken pieces have not been removed.
Dust and sand in the 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 wash itself over time or you can pour water on it before using it.
Concrete Grass Paver Circles – Draining Pavement
Concrete Grass Paver Circles – Draining Pavement
The Concrete Grass Paver Model Circles is much more than an outdoor floor; it is a blank canvas for your garden or entrance. Its 8 cm thick structure guarantees the necessary resistance for vehicle traffic, while its design of circular holes of 7.5 cm allows you to play with finishes to adapt them to the style of your project.
You choose the filling: Two solutions, multiple benefits
1. Grass Option: Aesthetic and Environmental Value If you want to integrate nature into your pavement, this model is the perfect structure. By filling the circles with substrate and seeds, you achieve a green surface that helps reduce soil temperature (heat island effect) and provides visual freshness. It is the ideal fusion between the hardness of concrete and the beauty of a living garden.
2. Decorative Gravels Option: Endless Finishes and Maximum Drainage This is where creativity knows no bounds. Thanks to the circular holes, you can combine the block (available in Gray or White) with gravels of different colors from our catalog (pure white, gravel, gray, volcanic, pink...).
-
Custom Aesthetics: Radically change the look of your entrance by playing with the color contrast between the piece and the stone.
-
The floor breathes: By using gravel, permeability is total. This combination turns the pavement into a highly draining surface, preventing puddles and allowing the soil to breathe naturally, maintaining the water cycle without obstacles.
Technical Characteristics:
-
Robust Format: 60 x 36 cm with a thickness of 8 cm (suitable for vehicle traffic).
-
Design: Geometric pattern of circles (hole of 7.5 cm in diameter).
-
Colors of the piece: Concrete Gray and White.
-
Consumption: 4.63 pieces / m².
Shipping and Performance Data:
-
Complete Pallet: Contains 48 pieces.
-
Coverage per pallet: One pallet covers approximately 10.36 m².
Vetonek Advice: Want a modern and functional design? Combine our pieces in Gray with White gravel for an elegant contrast, or White pieces with Volcanic gravel for a bolder style. Remember to use geotextile fabric at the base if you opt for gravel to keep the design impeccable.
