GRAVEL-LOK Updated Coverage Rates – MIX method
October
2012
We are no
longer recommending 16 oz. liquid : 5 gallon bucket of stones
It works in
some cases, depending on the cleanliness and size of the stone, but using 18
oz. is better for a wider variety of scenarios.
Rare
cases: if somebody is using stones which
are really small, 1/8” then we recommend using 20 oz. : 5 gallon bucket of stones. The smaller the stone, the more surface area
of stones to cover.
ADA
Compliance would need stones which are 1/8” up to 1/2” to create a smoother
pavement for wheelchairs.
FOR MOST
CASES…..
1/4” up to 1/2” for pavements (and this includes 3/8”) should be mixed
at 18 oz. liquid : 5 gallon bucket of stones
At 1”
thick: 210 sf/5 gallon container (USE ONLY ON CONCRETE LAY OVERS)
At 1.5”
thick: 140 sf / 5 gallon container
At 2.0”
thick: 105 sf/5 gallon container
If they are
using 1/8” size stone then you should use 20 oz. liquid : 5 gallon bucket of
stones.
At 1” thick: 180
sf / 5 gallon container
At 1.5”
thick: 120 sf/5 gallon container
At 2.0”
thick: 90 sf / 5 gallon container
