When it comes to arranging a summer cottage, everything summer residents they quickly rush to make greenhouses, flowerbeds and paths, completely forgetting about how the arrival to the country begins - the need to locate the car somewhere. After all, not everyone gets by public transport. And given the fact that you can inadvertently interfere with your neighbors with a randomly located car, private parking is extremely important.
Materials and tools:
1. Concrete.
2. The sand.
3. Geotextiles.
4. Gravel, crushed stone.
5. Vibrating machine.
6. Modules of a lawn lattice from plastic.
7. Wire mesh.
8. Pebbles suitable for gravel.
Work order:
First of all, in the area where the parking will be located, it is necessary to select the soil by approximately 30 cm. Then the curbs are installed. They are important in several ways: visually indicate the parking place, create a kind of buffer in case the car’s wheels suddenly leave the territory, and also protect it from getting a lot of dirt and debris in bad weather. Borders are installed on pillows made of concrete, geotextiles and sand, laid in several layers. As an alternative, gabions can be used - wireframes made of mesh filled with stones. In this case, the filling can be postponed to the end of construction.
The perimeter is created - now you can do the underlying layer. The lower one is formed from a mixture of rubble and gravel. The thickness of such a mixture should be in the range of 200-500 mm - it all depends on the weight of the car. Tamping and leveling will not do without a special vibropress machine.
It is recommended to apply a layer of geotextile on gravel, the density of which will be 160 g / m2. In this way, mixing of the layers and soil subsidence will be prevented. In addition, the load will be distributed evenly, and precipitation will be distributed throughout the site.
As soon as the geotextile layer reaches 50 mm, a layer of gravel is superimposed on it and compacted. If you plan to adjust the lighting, it's time to lay pipelines for cables at this stage.
After all the layers are laid, plastic modules of the lawn grate should be placed on top of them. It is important to note that the minimum height of the parking grill should be 32 mm. It is important to pay attention to the material - special nozzles should be included in the polypropylene, which will help to avoid damage in cold weather. If parking is planned to accommodate freight cars, then gratings are best chosen with additional stiffening ribs.
If you want to install gabions, then you should install them at the final stage.
Now the lattice is stacked as densely as possible to each other. If the need arises, it is better to trim it.
Then you can fill the gabions with gravel and ram it. Filling is carried out to the upper level of the cells inclusive.
And so it happens construction parking space in the country. As you can see, it takes a little time, materials are also easily purchased. As a result, the car will not skid even in the rainy weather.
