Derbyshire Specialist Aggregates has over 30 years of experience in the industry and we continually research to ensure that we provide the highest quality materials for resin bound installations. We strongly believe that using the correct ratio of resin to aggregates is critical in achieving a lasting, durable surface.
We provide 2 sizes for DALTEX UVR resin and recommend the following mix designs (ie the amount of resin and aggregates to be used).
RECOMMENDED MIX DESIGN FOR Performance DALTEX UVR 7.5kg Resin
3 standard bags 2-5mm, 1 standard bag 1-3mm and 1 mini bag DALTEX Binding Quartz sand. This delivers % resin coverage of 7.1%. Coverage approximately 4.0m2 at 15mm and 3.55m2 at 18mm depth.
Disclaimer: All calculations are approximate and no liability can be accepted for shortfalls or surplus.
We recommend that the minimum depth for driveways is a depth of 15mm. For areas with heavy traffic, we recommend a depth of 18mm.
NB. Don't forget to allow for natural undulations. We recommend you over order by 5%-10% to allow for any variances.
The DALTEX Capping Layer consists of 10mm angular limestone gravel and is an essential part of the DALTEX Base4Bound system. Its purpose is to fill in the gaps in the MOT Type 3, creating an even and smooth sub-base, ready for DALTEX Base4Bound to be installed. It also prevents the resin mixture from sinking into voids, therefore reducing material waste and improving stability.
Application Instructions
The Capping Layer should be laid at a 25mm depth and can be spread evenly and compacted with a roller or a wacker plate.
