To kick off the series, let's explore the initial stages of preparing a paver driveway, including jobsite preparation, excavation, and creating an open-graded base. We'll wrap up the series by diving into the construction of an EcoTerra driveway, Umbriano front walkway, and U-Cara garden wall.
Join Daniel Pacheco from Scenic Stone Landscape & Design and Jason Arseneau from Unilock Contractor Services as they guide you through the entire process, from excavation to finishing touches.
In Chapter One, Jason chats with Mike East, CEO and Founder of U-Level, to showcase the U-Level tool. With its user-friendly app, capable of exporting data in various formats and programs, including Uvision 3D Landscape Creator Software, this altimeter aids in precise elevation recordings during excavation, ensuring accuracy throughout the project.
Moving on to Chapter Two, Mike puts U-Level to the test, ensuring the excavation meets the project's 12-inch depth requirement with accurate slope alignment. Meanwhile, Daniel's team gets to work compacting the sub-base, laying the groundwork for the base material.
Chapter Three delves into how Daniel’s team has utilized a combination of DriveGrid, DriveCel, and geotextile fabric to create a stable base for this driveway project. Jason speaks to industry expert Phil Perzia from PERZIA GeoSolutions, who shares his insights on determining void ratios of base material and native subsoil, crucial for assessing subgrade strength during installation.
