LANDSCAPING AND DRIVEWAYS

Here is an example of what can be achieved using the Amanzi Quarry 19mm Stone for landscaping and surfacing of driveways. to calculate the quantity required, multiply the Length by the Breadth, and then the Depth.

We recomend a depth of about 5cm, which will be 0.05 metre. The calulation will give you the quantity that you require in cubic metres. Make certain that the units are all in metres for all measurements.

eg, A driveway 10 metres long, by 2.5 metres wide will be calculated as follows:

10 m * 2.5 m * 0.05 m = 1.25 m^3

Once you have calculated how much material you require, then call our orders hotline, on 041 3661917, and our super friendly sales persons will give you a price for us to supply and deliver the material to your site.

Remember that you can also place orders through www.tradelist.co.za

We also supply Gabion Stone, River Boulders, and 13mm Stone, which look really great when used for landscaping. See the relevant pages on this website for more info.

BEDDING FOR WATERLOGGED TRENCHES

This material can also be used for bedding of pipes in trenches when there is excess water. We supplied about 3000 m^3 to WK Construction in 2007 for the Smelly Creek collector sewer, which was situated between the N2, and the dolosse, opposite the Goods Sheds in Deal Party, Port Elizabeth . There were times when during rough seas, and at high tide, the sea water actually spilled into the trench! yet through the use of our product, they were able to overcome this problem, and successfully complete the project.

Another recent client in this regards was Shearwater Construction, who had to put a Water Mains Pipeline over the Swartkops river, and right across the flood plane.
