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.
MOT Type 3 is a permeable sub-base material and is a clean, angular limestone aggregate which forms an integral layer for the DALTEX Base4Bound system. Unlike MOT Type 1, it contains a reduced amount of fines (dust) so that water can drain through freely while the base remains compact and stable. Application instructions The MOT Type 3 sub-base should be installed at a minimum depth of 125mm, with the option to increase up to 225mm depending on the permeability of the existing sub-stone. Spread the MOT Type 3 evenly across the prepared area and compact thoroughly using a roller or wacker plate to achieve a stable and free-draining base.
