hi ive been tarmacing for a good few years now and its all been self taught, when i price jobs i measure them up and caculate how much 6mm will be needed but as i am self taught does anyone know a better way than what i am doing.
Say it is 100sqm i just devide that by 16 for a 30mm depth to give me about 6 tonn of the black gold
cheers
