Classification of 6f2 material
What is 6F2?
What is 6F2? 6F2 is an aggregate which is composed of crushed concrete, brick and mortar produced as a by-product of demolition projects known in the trade as 6F2 Recycled Capping.
What’s the difference between 6F5 and 6F2?
What is the difference between 6F2 and 6F5? 6F2 is classified as materials sourced, produced and used on site. Where material is imported onto site, it should be classified as 6F5.
Is 6F2 recycled?
Our 6F2 crushed concrete stone is a coarse recycled aggregate, with many benefits, it can be used for a wide range of construction and landscaping needs. This aggregate is a cost effective option because it is recycled. Crushed concrete driveways are far more cost effective than gravel driveways.
Is 6F2 a waste?
We are regularly asked by our customers to remove or relocate 6F2 from their sites which has been used for temporary works. The material is then technically deemed a waste product. The problem occurs when you test the 6F2 from a waste perspective, the results frequently highlight contamination in the material.
What size is 6F2 stone?
What is the difference between 6F2 vs 6F5?
| 6F2 | 6F5 | |
|---|---|---|
| Size (mm) | Percentage by Mass Passing | Size (mm) |
| 5 | 10 – 45 | 2 |
| 600 (Microns) | 0-25 | 63 (Microns) |
| 63 (Microns) | 0-12 | |
What is Type 1 fill material?
Type 1 Sub Base is generally a 40mm graded to dust material that is laid and compacted to form a level stable construction layer as a platform for asphalt or concrete. It is typically used in the construction of highways, car parks, footways and hard standing areas.
What is the difference between Type 1 and Type 2 mot?
Our Type 2 is a crushed aggregate with extra dusts and fines, which makes the perfect sub base for a range of domestic and commercial construction projects. Graded to 50mm down to dust and fines no specified grading, it is finer than our MOT Type 1 sub base, as it is composed of fewer larger angular scalpings.
What is Type 2 crushed concrete?
Type 2 crushed concrete in Surrey is a standard sub-base material mainly for road purposes such as filling in pot holes but it can be used for a range of other applications such as driveways, backfill material, patio areas, tracks, paths and foundations.
What is 6C material?
6C – Selected uniformly graded granular material (Starter layer) 6D – Selected uniformly graded granular material (Starter layer below pulverised fuel ash) 6E – Selected granular material, Class 9A (For stabilisation with cement to form capping) 6F1 – Selected granular material, fine grading (Capping)
What are the 4 main types of aggregates?
Aggregates Definition:
It includes gravel, crushed rock, sand, recycled concrete, slag, and synthetic aggregate.
What is Type 1 aggregate used for?
MOT Type 1 (hardcore) is crushed carboniferous limestone, used to create a hardcore base under patios, paving, driveways and artificial grass. It can also be used as a filling product.
What is MOT type 3 used for?
MOT Type 3 is used commonly as a sub-base for drives, car parks paths and many other construction projects where drainage and full permeability is required. MOT Type 3 is ideal for use as the sub-base for Suregreen’s range of Permeable Paving Grids.
What are the 3 classifications of aggregates?
Classification of Aggregates as per Size and Shape -Coarse and Fine Aggregates
- Rounded Aggregate.
- Irregular Aggregates.
- Angular Aggregates.
- Flaky Aggregates.
- Elongated Aggregates.
- Flaky and Elongated Aggregates.
What are the classes of aggregates?
Based on the grain size, the aggregates are classified into two types. The fine aggregates are used in concrete as a filler material to fill the voids. The coarse aggregates are used in concrete to develop the strength of the element.
What are the 4 types of concrete?
Let’s take a quick look at the most common types of concrete and what they are used for:
- Reinforced Concrete.
- Lightweight Concrete.
- High-Strength Concrete.
- High-Performance Concrete.
- Precast Concrete.
What does Type 1 MOT mean?
MOT Type 1 is a crushed aggregate material used to provide a stable sub-base for road surfaces and pathways. Both primary and recycled material can be used to produce a Type 1 sub-base.
Does MOT Type 1 drain?
So, if you are asking “Is MOT Type 1 good for drainage?” The answer is no, go for Type 3 MOT instead.
How much is in a bulk bag of MOT Type 1?
Simply Paving Building Materials MOT Type 1
One bulk bag will cover approximately 8 square metres (coverage is calculated assuming a depth of 50mm).
How thick should type 1 be?
New Sub-base
A minimum thickness of 100mm MOT type 1 crushed stone should be compacted and regulated with local deviations no greater than 10mm under a 3 meter straight edge. The stone levels may range between 100mm and 300mm depending on site conditions. A perimeter edging is required to retain the surface.
What is the difference between MOT Type 1 and MOT Type 3?
This makes MOT Type 1 ideal for use as a sub base where vehicular access is required, such as highways, car parks, emergency access routes and driveways. MOT Type 3 complies with the Department of Transport Specification for Highway Works, Clause 805 (SHW 805).
What is the difference between type1 and type 3 stone?
Type 3 is a sub-base similar to MOT Type 1 but with reduced fines to allow water to free drain as a permeable sub base. For material to be called Type 3, it must conform to the Ministry of Transport Specification Clause SHW 805.
