Grit sand, also known as washed sharp sand, has a variety of uses in construction and landscaping due to its coarse texture and larger particles. Here are some common applications:
Concrete Mixing: Provides strength and stability to concrete mixes, making it ideal for foundations and other structural work.
Floor Screeds: Used to create a smooth, level surface over concrete floors before laying final flooring materials1.
Paving Base: Serves as a stable base for laying paving slabs, driveways, and patios, ensuring evenness and preventing shifting.
Mortar: Mixed with cement to create a strong mortar for bricklaying and pointing.
Pipe Bedding: Provides a supportive layer for pipes, preventing uneven settling and potential damage.
Landscaping: Used as a top dressing for lawns and in seed composts to improve drainage.
Washed sand, specifically, refers to sand that has been cleaned to remove clay, silt, dust, and other impurities, making it suitable for applications where a clean, fine material is required3.These are packed in either 25kg bags or bulk bags
