Building sand for small patio area?

[alan0259]

I have four bags of B&Q builders sand left over from a previous job and was wondering if this would be ok to use for a small patio area for garden table/chairs.

The flag stones are 30cm and it will be roughly 7 x 5 flags in size.

I've heard about people using sharp sand but would rather use this if it would do?


Cheers.

take special note of the bit called "bedding layer", and especially the bit in red
