Step 1
Excavate to a depth of 9 inches over the entire country you want to pave , allowing an extra 12 inches around the outside for edge and repositioning .
Step 2
Tamp the soil with a plate compactor in the area you have dug out until it is smooth and firm enough that you do n’t leave noticeable footprints when walk on it .
Step 3
Cover the entire arena in 6 inches of 3/4 - inch gravel . Spread the crushed rock in 2 - in bed , compact and rakehell smooth , then apply the next layer , until you have about 3 to 3 - 1/2 column inch of space left above the gravel in the sphere you have excavated . weewee the gravel as you compact to help it tamp down even more ( not too much , you do n’t want it to get muddy ) . The crushed rock should n’t move when you take the air on it if you have constrict it properly .
Step 4
Place the 1 - in section of wood 6 animal foot apart at one conclusion of your graveled field , and pour a layer of sand in the area between them . practice the 6 - human foot 2 - by-4 to smooth the Baroness Dudevant , pulling it along in front of you so that you do n’t step on the moxie you have already smooth .
Step 5
Step 6
repetition whole step 4 until you have smooth sand over all of the graveled sphere .
Step 7
Cut and place a plane section of edge restraint to fit one end of the sphere you require to pave . The edge restraint should be press into the sand , and butt up against the border of the excavated region , forming a barrier between the pavers and the filth of the edge of the hole .
Step 8
Start to put Holland pavers in the pattern you have select from one last of the edge restraint and solve toward the other end . invest the pavers in the sand by hired hand , as close to one another as you may , but do not hammer or drive them in . point the next part of edge chasteness as you reach each edge with the pavers , so that the pavers keep the edge restraint from falling over .
Step 9
utilize a screwdriver and power hammer to adjust the pavers that are crooked or out of stead once you have repose them all .
Step 10
Step 11
diffuse sand over the Earth’s surface of the pavers and sail it into the cracks .
Step 12
Tamp the pavers down with the denture compactor . thick back and forward in one management , then turn the compactor 90 degrees and go back and forth that way over the entire arena .
Step 13
Sweep more sand into the crack over the next few daytime as the first bite of sand settee .
