Polymeric sand
To cover the spaces among pavers or stones in hardscaping projects like
- Patios
- Pathways
- and driveways
polymeric sand is a sort of joint filler.
Composition of polymeric sand
It is constructed of a blend of fine sand and a polymer component that becomes active when it comes into contact with water. The sand particles are bound together by the polymer component, forming a strong and solid junction that thwarts weed development and erosion.
How much polymeric sand do you required?
The how much polymeric sand do you need is depend upon following factor
- The size of the area to be covered.
- the width of the joints between the pavers or stones.
- and the depth of the joints will all affect.
You can use these common procedures to calculate how much polymeric sand you need:
- Multiplying the area’s length and width will yield the total square footage that needs to be covered.
- The paver or stone joints’ width and depth should be measured.
- For recommended coverage per bag of polymeric sand based on joint width and depth, according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
- To calculate how many bags of polymeric sand are required, divide the area’s total square footage by the suggested coverage per bag.
Note:
Remember that it’s wise to buy a little extra polymeric sand so you have enough for the project and can account for any waste or spills that may occur during installation.
