Read Morequarry dust due to the high fines of quarry dust, requires greater amount of water. Lohani et al. [34] reported the slump and compaction factor of concrete made with quarry dust for a w/c ratio 0.55. The slump and compaction factor was measured for replacement of fine aggregate by quarry dust at 0%, 20%, 30%, 40% and 50%

Read MoreOnce the pavers have been installed on top of the stone dust bed, use a vibrating plate to compact the bed and pavers even more. However, note that stone dust doesn't compact well due to its powdery texture. It can cause shifting of the pavers later on which is why it's not really recommended to use this for your installation bed.
