Paver base

Paver base is a form of aggregate used in the construction of patios and walkways whose topmost layer consists of mortarless pavers. The first layer in the construction of such a surface is called the subgrade—this is the layer of native material underneath the intended surface. It is usually compacted and stabilized. If the final pavement is to have vehicle traffic, a layer of subbase of crushed stone or concrete must come next—this layer will even out the subgrade and will bear the heaviest load from the pavement above. Next comes the base course composed of crushed gravel varying from 0.75 in (1.9 cm) down to dust-particle size. It too is typically compacted and evened. The next layer will be the paver base, composed of coarse sand and typically between 6 and 12 in thick, depending on anticipated traffic.
