Further to your specific requirements, apply the sub-base of MOT Type 1 with the rake and thoroughly compact using the vibrating plate in layers of 50mm until your desired level is reached.
Apply a 50mm level of slightly damp, course sharp sand and compact down, again using the vibrating plates, to an approximate depth of 35mm.
A further 20mm layer of sharp sand then needs to be raked on top and using the screeding rails and string line, leveled to the correct falls.
When using vibrating plate machinery please follow all manufacturer's guidelines including acceptable levels of exposure and in particular use ear protection.
