CLEANERS & SEALANTS Cleaners are products used in removing stains caused by motor-oil, grease, rust, tar, rubber or paint stains, as well as efflorescence and ground-in dirt.

Sealants are specially designed to protect pavers and slabs made of concrete or natural stone. They reduce oil and dirt penetration, and make cleaning easier.

Contact Expocrete or a local distributor of these products for advice on what cleaner or sealant would work best for you.

POLYMERIC JOINT SANDS Polymeric Jointing Sand is a high-tech mix of graded sand and binder, specially formulated for the filling of narrow or wide joints when installing pavers, slabs or natural stone. This sand remains stable and is effective in resisting water erosion, frost, wind, street sweepers and inhibits weed growth and insect infestation. Polymeric jointing sand is applied dry and hardens after wetting.

RG POLYMERIC SAND: Colours: Ochre / Tan & Granite / GreyBag: 30 kg / 66 lbsArea Covered/Bag: 6-9 m2 65-100 sq ft

Required quantity will depend on the shape and size of the pavers or slabs, and on the width of joints. Temperature should be above 15ºC when applying.

HP POLYMERIC SAND: Colours: Ochre / Tan

This High-Performance mix made of specially formulated polymers is ideal for heavy-traffic areas such as pool decks, sloped driveways and public ways. It is recommended for the replacement of existing joints. Temperatures should be above 5ºC when applying.

INSTALLATION GUIDE

1. Create OutlineThe first step is to take your

completed design and transfer it onto the ground where you will be

installing your patio. You can use spray paint to mark the outline,

using a garden hose for guidance on the curved areas and long boards for the straight areas.

2. Set ElevationsNext, use a 2x4, stakes and level to set the slope of your patio (a slope of approximately 1” to every 8 ft. is

usually ideal.) Now, set your stakes, and string lines to mark the top of finished patio. Please refer to the

Depth Estimation Chart.

3. ExcavateUsing your grid work for stakes and

guide strings, excavate material below the string lines to the depth

needed. To determine depth, refer to chart. Note: Before any

digging, contact your local utility companies for the location and

depth of pipes, cables and conduits.

4. Spread Granular BaseYou are now ready to spread and

compact the coarse granular base.

Page 29: expocrete paving brochure - Amazon S3s3.amazonaws.com/townlife_production/public/uploads/... · 2018. 12. 7. · (Interlocking Concrete Pavement Institute) standard of 8000 psi (55mpa)

29www.expocrete.com

5. Compact BaseThe granular base should be leveled and compacted (use a plate compactor) in layers of not more than 4”. Wet, but do not soak the gravel base while compacting. Level the base to approximately 3” below the desired surface level. Make sure the base is level and conforms to the shape and elevation of the finished job by measuring down from the string lines.

6. Install Edge RestraintTo prevent lateral movement of the pavers, edge restraints should be installed on compacted base along all edges which would otherwise be unrestrained. If possible install edging only on one of two sides of the paving area. After pavers have been placed, install remainder of edging so as to avoid unnecessary cutting.

7. Spread Bedding SandBegin screeding (spreading) a 1” layer of sand; this layer is called the sand bed. Use a large grained sand such as concrete sand. Lay screed guides (1” pipe, electric conduit or wood strips) onto the compacted base. Now fill the area with sand and slide the 8 and 10 foot screen board along the guides causing the sand to become smooth and level. Once this is complete, pull out the screed guides and fill voids with sand. Smooth out this sand with a trowel or small board. Do not walk on or work from the screeded sand.

8. Lay PaversAfter screeding the sand you can begin laying your pavers, using the area’s straightest edge as your starting point. Pick a starting point where you can make the pavers fit against the longest straight edge or the longest combination of straight edges as long as they are at right angles to each other.

INSTALLATION GUIDE

9. Keep Pavers SquareUse a string line running in both

directions as your guide. This is easily done by measuring out lines in multiples

of 3, 4, and 5 with the line marked “three” remaining stationary during the squaring process. (See diagram below.) Line “four” should be moved until “four”

and “five” intersect, causing a right angle in the “three-four” corner. If your

pavers start to get off square, you can get them into proper position by gently

tapping them towards the string line.

10. Cut To FitMany of the pavers that butt into

the soldier course (strip of pavers all facing the same direction)

will need to be cut to fit properly. Using a concrete saw or guillotine splitter, cut each paver separately – marking it, removing it, cutting it and placing it – before proceeding to the next one. Install the soldier

course as you go along.

11. Compact PatioSweep off the surface completely

and use the plate compactor to tamp the pavers to a uniform level.

Run the compactor in a parallel direction, across the pavers,

overlapping on each pass. Make a second series of passes in a

perpendicular direction.

12. Spread SandSweep dry concrete sand* or

polymeric jointing sand** into all spaces between the finished

pavers, repeating the process until all joints between the pavers are

filled. Repeat this process with more dry sand in a few days.

*Do not use masonry or fine sand. **Polymeric jointing sand requires a few extra

steps. Please contact your local dealer for more information.
