In the process of construction, you will need various materials, but for the foundation and subsequent construction of the walls you will primarily need bulk materials that play a crucial role in mixing various solutions. First you will need gravel, it, like gravel, is used in concrete. All bulk materials can be transported by car if you have a rimop on Q3 to which you can attach the trailer. Gravel is small pebbles, the length of each of which reaches 80 mm, and the smallest – 5 mm. Small gravel is used in cases where concrete is visible, from an aesthetic point of view, the concrete mass does not look rude. But, if possible, it is better to use the average 30-40 mm gravel, since it sticks concrete much better. Gravel can be of several types: gravelly, low -legged, ovoid, well -sharated, breasted and needle.
Crushed stone also plays an important role, but in everything practical is similar to gravel – the same size, the same purpose of use. They just make it from the remnants of brick, pumhes and other rocks. When buying gravel, it is very important that its size is equal to the gravel used. Be sure to buy pure gravel and crushed stone, otherwise rinse them well from small pebbles and clay.
Now about the sand, which during construction is purchased in tons. Sand is also different – river, lake, mountain, ravine and many others, but basically it is necessary to use these types of sand. River sand is considered the best, which is not only clean and practically does not need flushing, but also a smaller and well -groomed. River sand is used in concrete solutions and for internal work, and the rest of the sand for external. Like other bulk materials, sand also needs to be washed so that the level of pollution does not reach five percent.
