Can anyone give me an idea of the best way to construct a driveway across the thickest wettest clay in the SW of England? The total length is about 50 meters long by about 4.5 wide. I've had a look on the main site about 150mm of DTpT 1 but even with a layer of Terram down pretty much everything we've used to get heavy site access sinks into the clay.
Thoughts as to the rough quantities of rock/type 1 needed greatly appreciated.
Or just tell me where we went wrong, other than only finding this site 6 months after we started building.
This is the concrete lorry sinking into the 6" rock that was put down
and 10 days later, yes thats a stream running through the middle, we've diverted that now.
