RESIN BOUND SURFACING
Drystone resin bound surfacing is compromised of graded aggregates, bound with a clear polyurethane resin binder, which allows the aggregate colour to show through. It is based upon BS 4987 (the British Standard specification for coated macadams) with bitumen replaced by a clear binder and is designed for driveways, mews, parking areas or where the application of hot applied may not be feasible.
Drystone resin bound surfacing provides a hard-wearing textured surface, resistant to the weathering effect of UV radiation from sunlight and to softening or degradation by oils, fuels and some commonly used solvents.
PERFORMANCE
The durability of Drystone resin bound surfacing will depend on site conditions and it is anticipated that the surface will have a similar service life to that of conventional bituminous macadam made with the same aggregate.
APPLICATION
Drystone resin bound surfacing aggregate and binder system is mixed on site immediately prior to laying in a forced action mixer, mixing the aggregate and resin together.
The mixed material is laid to a depth of 15-18mm on bituminous or concrete base courses and float finished. The depth and composition of the underlying construction will be dependant on whether the surfacing is intended for vehicular or pedestrian traffic.
The curing time of the surfacing is controlled to suit the prevailing site conditions by the incorporation of additives at the mixing stage.
SPECIFICATION GUIDELINES
Base course bituminous: Hot-applied bituminous base course or surface course to BS594 or BS4987.
Concrete: Concrete: Concrete to BS328, new and existing surfaces to be prepared in accordance with construction industry research and industry information services report 184.
The surface regularity for the base course construction should be + 6mm
Treds and Risers
Our treads and risers are a great way of incorporating your steps with your resin bond project. It adds a lovely finish to your property.
This is completed by creating the step front prior to laying where it will then be completed with the rest of the project.
Pool Surrounds
Our Resin Bound Surfacing is a very safe and smart way of surfacing your pool surround. This surface is not only great for grip around your pool but it's also permeable therefore no puddles will be left from any excess pool water.
This product is also available in various colours which you can see on the sample section of our page.
