Type 1

Product Description

The Type 1 Sub-base is a crucial material in the construction industry, specifically designed to provide a strong, stable foundation for various applications such as roads, pavements, and other structural layers. This granular material compiles a blend of crushed rock, gravel, and natural stone, ensuring excellent load-bearing capacity and compaction. Its versatility makes it an ideal choice for sub-bases under asphalt and concrete, providing essential support and enhancing longevity. Key features of the Type 1 Sub-base include its high strength and durability, designed to withstand heavy traffic loads and environmental conditions. With a particle size typically ranging from 0-40mm, it allows for effective drainage and reduces the risk of frost heave. This material meets the specifications outlined in standards such as the British Standard (BS 7533), making it suitable for a wide variety of construction projects. Applications of the Type 1 Sub-base include use in highways, local roads, parking lots, and walkways, where a solid and stable groundwork is necessary. Its ability to distribute loads evenly helps prevent settling and cracking of the surface layers, thereby extending the lifespan of the completed construction. For optimal performance, it is recommended to handle the Type 1 Sub-base using appropriate equipment to avoid segregation. Store in a dry area to maintain quality, and ensure it is compacted properly during application to achieve the best results. Compatibility with other construction materials is typically excellent, enhancing its practicality in diverse projects.
