I'm having a go at PIC concrete garden paths and patio. I've measured the areas and calculated the total volume as being 0.611m³ (cubic meters).
I went to the builder's yard and asked for a quote for 10 bags of cement and a 0.62m³ (rounded up for margin of error) bag of 10mm ballast. Unfortunately they were unable to quote for the ballast unless I somehow guessed the weight!
According to the interweb I need to know the density of the 10mm ballast to work this out, and no idea how wet their ballast is.
Any suggestions?
