To prevent your interlock driveway from sinking, you must have a sufficient amount of gravel in the base. If there is not a sufficient amount, the job will fail. Follow the steps listed below for a step-by-step driveway interlock guide:
1. Excavation. If there is an insufficient gravel base, you must perform a deep excavation and ensure there is enough room to fill 12″ of gravel, plus room for the width of the stones.
2. Install Geotextile. This textile acts as a filter, separating old base materials (soil, sand, clay) from the new gravel base, which helps prevent the gravel from mixing or sinking.
3. Install Gravel. Install the gravel on top of the Geotextile.
4. Compaction. This is crucial. 500+ lbs. of weight should be added to completely compact the base.
5. Level the ground with bedding material. The best bedding material is High-Performance Bedding (HPB). It is fully permeable, meaning it does not hold moisture. This reduces the chance of expansion in the winter.
6. Install stones & fill gaps. Put the stones back in place and fill the gaps with polymeric sand. This sand will act as glue, holding the stones together. Once applied, it needs to be compacted, so it can settle in the gaps. Then a second layer should be applied to completely seal the interlock and eliminate the potential for shifting.
