    Slab sizes, 1200x600=.72m2 105m2=146 slabs
    5 slabs per barrow, folded.
    The slabs were in great shape delivered with adequate soil depth.
    The slabs were easier to install using a fork to move them. The slabs were more solid than the rolls & didn't tear as easy.
    A hivis sticker stated that we used washed sand between the slabs to maintain moisture levels. This is contrary to what I would imagine

    Cheers Fred.

    nice work fred,like your idea using the fork...always said you are an ideas man ....i found the thickness of the soil in the slabs to be of great benefit over the rolled turf.
