| General
Usage Guide: |
| |
| The
5G Blast Furnace Slag should be laid 6”-18” (150mm-450mm) thick, depending upon
ground conditions and design loadings, in lifts not exceeding 8” (200mm). Prior to the placement of any base material, the
grade should be compacted and trimmed to the design density & elevations and be free
of any standing water and not in a frozen condition.
Base material should be compacted as
specified in the design plans. |
