Description

Pebbles from the perfect river, the ideal size for the increasingly used decorative gavions.

Unlike other river edges that you can find in the market, our stones are very well selected in size, they have very few broken units and has an almost polished touch, they are not porous and therefore the dirt is not embedded in them something that if it happens in other pebbles more sandy.

If you have decided to place gavions in your garden, a very important part is obviously the stone with which you are going to fill them, the appearance and especially the granulometry of the stone is important.

Stone measures for gavions

The most standard gavions have a 50x100 cm mesh size. so it is necessary to use rocks, gravels or pebbles with size greater than 50 mm. so that the stone does not come out. The ideal size must start 60 mm. Up because in this way you guarantee that most of the stones you buy are useful.

On the other hand the more limited the most beautiful granulometry is the stone, for example a beautiful 60-80 mm is more beautiful. than 60-100 mm.

Our pebbles by gavions are available in the Granulometries 60-80, 80-100 and 100-120 mm., 80-100 is widely used when gavions have a 100x100 mm mesh width. that can also be found in the market.

For standard light size 100x50 mm. The most suitable measures is 80-100 mm. but the 60-80 and 100-120 mm. They work perfectly, maybe it's more a matter of taste than something else.

Note after the opinions of our clients

When talking about stone 60-80 mm. For example, it means that the stones pass through a square mesh of 80x80 mm. and do not go through a 60x60 mm. But through that 80x80 mesh a stone of 100 mm can pass. long and 65 mm. wide so there may be stones greater than 80 and less than 60 mm. since there is a percentage of stones that do not fall for the 60 mm mesh. despite being less than 60 mm.

On the other hand in stones of more than 60 mm. There is a percentage of up to 10% of stones that are broken by classifying, washing, loading and downloading the stones, today we have no machinery that avoids those breaks.

The photos you can see to the left where only stones are seen are made to Big Bag reales, broken pieces have not been removed.

RESULTADO (KG)

How much stone do I need?

How much stone do I need for the ground?

For pebble and gravel:
• ± 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 parts have not 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.
