    Morning All,

    Question for the Builders amongst us.

    DP1 for a 70 square meter cobble patio area. How much would I need?

    I've been recommended that I put down a 75mm hard core base. and using an on line calculator I would need roughly 10 tons to cover the 70 square meter area. Would this be about right?

    Thanks,

    slightly off topic - can you post the link to the calculator you used.

    thx

    by the way - that sounds about right -I was told about 12 ton for a 90m2 area.

    I put in 6 ton of hardcore under a 22 sq metre concrete slab. It was on average roughly 75mm deep.
