I see on your main website pictures and info on crushed slate waste used as a fill and surface dressing for a public carpark.
I am working on a project in North Wales and wish to use slate for the car park.
I would like to know of any examples of where this has been done and how it is constructed.
Thanks

Waunfaur (sp?) railway station
Beddgelert public car park
Also in Nantlles, Blaenau and several small villages around Nant-y-gwyn, but I don't have details of of precise locations.
Construction has typically involved laying a sub-base of larger slate waste, typically 100mm down roughly 250-450mm thick (constructed in layers), with a 75-100mm regulating layer of 40mm to dust material, and then a surface dressing of 25mm down.
