Hello all.
I need a bit of help. Am quoting for a job of laying a pad for a transportable home where I am digging out fill, and laying 100mm (4") of road base. The road base then needs to be compacted.
This is not something I have been involved with before as most of my jobs result in concrete being poured.
To compact the road base do I need to get a roller, or is a vibrating plate as used for paving good enough? (I am guessing I need to use a roller, which is fine have spent many hours running back and forth on cricket pitches)
Just need to get the price right, as at this stage I dont have a roller.
Cheers for your help.
