This just sounds wrong. I'm no civil engineer, but I don't think silicate expands when wet. Clay, on the other hand, definitely has some expansion issues.


Sand becomes tighter when it gets wet. You get better compaction. Clay will swell and shrink with moisture content.

I will take some pic's this evening, but does anyone know how much sand goes for? Is $10/yard delivered about right?
