Design considerations
Mechanical lay
For a skilled mechanical laying team, rates of around 800-900m2
or more laid in a day are not uncommon.
Please see Europa for
product information.
Site preparation
Mechanical laying is ideally suited to large installation areas
with no obstructions such as kerbs, manholes or drainage.
The site must be well planned in terms of logistics. The volume of
materials being laid requires large quantities of sand to be
delivered in front of the area being laid, with the paving blocks
being delivered from behind. The site should be kept relatively
free from obstruction.
Given the logistical needs of mechanical laying, clients are
invited to contact the Technical Helpline for advice.
