What is hoggin?

Hoggin is a type of aggregate used for roads, roads and driveways that consist of a mixture of clay, sand and gravel and is usually light brown or buff. A mixture of clay, sand and gravel means it is a stable and usable surface that can be laid cheaper than other tiles methods. The path that is made of hoggin is quite easy to install and maintain, although we may need weeds from time to time. Hlin, sand and gravel must be very precisely combined to ensure that the surface is stable and remains over time. With too much sand or gravel, the surface does not remain together, which means that over time it will disintegrate and become unusable. Also too much sand or gravel will lead to the water to attack the surface and mistake it.G paved. As soon as it spreads, the surface should be compacted using a cylinder. Depending on the depth of the desired surface level, it may be necessary to spread and then rolled to ensure that the material is correctly compacted. In most cases will be for chOdds or light vehicles need at least 3 to 4 inches (80 to 100 mm).

As soon as the hoggin is laid, the gravel is added over the surface of the area. Gravel provides strength for Hoggin base as well as a more efficient surface. Depending on the depth of the road, road or driveway, 3/4 inches should be rolled up to 2 inches (20 to 50 mm) of the gravel. This step must be immediately completed and the base should not be allowed to soak or be awake at all times.

When hoggin is properly laid, it is only slightly permeable for water; It is mostly waterproof. While some water can penetrate the surface of the paved area, most will start. It is important to lay a road or way to the slope so that the water escapes from the surface and does not create puddles in certain areas.
