We will be in Booth #1162 — stop by to say hi, meet our Senior Account Manager Dave Ventura, and learn more about GraniteCrete! Per ASLA: The conference is open to all who are passionate about shaping healthier, more resilient, and more beautiful communities. We especially invite professionals and students from
This month marks the third and final installment in our three-part series highlighting the key components of a GraniteCrete installation. This month, we focus on achieving proper curing after GraniteCrete has been installed. Proper curing is essential to achieving long-term strength and durability and ensuring a beautiful GraniteCrete surface for many years. The curing process is what makes GraniteCrete achieve its strength and longevity, allowing a well-cured installation to remain beautiful for many years, even under heavy use. Slow curing of GraniteCrete is important to control cracking and ensure the surface gains maximum strength evenly throughout the curing process. What Happens During CuringThe curing process has both a physical and a chemical component, and each adds to proper curing
This month marks the second installment in a three-part series highlighting key components of a GraniteCrete installation. This month, we highlight proper compaction during the installation process. Proper compaction is critical to creating a lasting, strong installation; without it, GraniteCrete will not reach its full strength, and the surface will degrade before its time. How to Properly Compact GraniteCrete Before compaction begins, it’s important to set-up a good screeding process to ensure the material is level. Keep in mind that GraniteCrete compacts approximately 25%, so your screeding process should account for that. The finished grade should meet specifications, as additional GraniteCrete cannot be added on top of a compacted lift. GraniteCrete should not be
This month marks the first installment in a three-part series highlighting the key components of a GraniteCrete installation. This month we will be looking at proper moisture content during the mixing and installation process. Adding Water to the Dry Decomposed Granite & GraniteCrete Admixture For installations up to 3,000 square feet, the water can be added and mixed into the decomposed granite and GraniteCrete admixture manually. We recommend using a hose with a shower head/spray attachment, and a rake to thoroughly mix it into the dry material. A consistent moisture level can be accomplished more efficiently by using a volumetric truck. With separate areas/hoppers for decomposed granite, GraniteCrete admixture, and water, these trucks are able
