Deck on tiles

[stoffe1]

Is it enough to use 8/16 macadam as a base when I am going to have tiles that the patio stands on, or do I also need setting sand for the tiles to rest on?

I believe the sand will creep/rain away after a while.
If you have trouble getting the tiles where you want them, try using finer gravel than 8/16.

And the macadam I lay, I assume, needs to be compacted?

 

[Tomture61]

How thick is your layer of makadam?

 

[stoffe1]

Approximately 10cm.

Take the family for a tour, over the macadam then
So the stones possibly settle better
