Hi,
Just in the advanced planning stage of a landscaping project for the back garden - using Marshalls Woodstone sleepers and posts. The posts will be concreted 200mm into holes dug with a petrol posthole borer I'm hiring for a weekend. To seat all the posts at the same height I'm planning on using something like a 14mm to dust aggregate, compacted in the bottom of the hole this means that if a hole is slightly deeper I can raise it up to the correct height. I'm just trying to work out the quantity of aggregate I need I plan on putting 50mm of chippings in the bottom of each hole. I've Googled but not found a figure for the volume to weight ratio for 14mm to dust.
