my next patio is 70m2 of teakwood sawn stone. The project packs are 3 different sizes, 600x600, 300x600 and 300x300.

I've asked my supplier how many of each come in the crate and he said each crate covers the same m2 but the sizes you get vary from crate to crate.

I doubt very much that this is the case. I think he didn't know and couldn't be bothered going out in the rain to find out.

Anyone here know the answer?

never used 3 size but normally you get equal numbers of flags
which mean you always end up with loads of little ones left :angry:

heres a pattern from this site

Cheers for the info Tony but I'll be laying this one in rows with offset perks so some rows will be 600x the width of the job whilst others will be 300x the width off the job. I'm laying it that way so I can get all the grain going in the same direction.

My thinking was that I'll either get equal numbers as you suggested or 3.84m2 of each size.

I've got to find out the numbers per pack so I can get the laying pattern sorted.

To my working out,

600x600 #16-5.76m2
600x300 #26-4.68m2
300x300 #12-1.08m2
So to every 600 row I'll need 2 rows of 300's.

This sound about right?
