How many cm do paving stones settle after being compacted?

The vibrating is supposed to encourage the structure of the bulk material layer to compact densely, thus practically creating the stable final state of settling before the surface layer is applied. Vibrating the surface layer would cause each individual paving stone—which is already densely compacted and stable—to oscillate, which basically creates material fatigue in fast motion. A trade magazine that would have recommended this would, in my opinion, have to have been an April issue.

I can also more easily imagine that the natural stones break if you mortar several on top of each other. For us, this "beautiful natural stone edge" was only set later... okay, we also don't have cobblestones, but slabs. Cobblestones themselves should be tamped on a solid base, but they won't sink much if you already stabilize the base and all the stones are exactly the same height so that you only have to lay the stones on top and not hammer them into the ground.

I can only recommend it to you. Build a proper substructure and compact it properly. Set the curbstones on a mortar bed and pave the inner paving stones about 1 cm higher, then fill the joints with sand and then tamp down the loosely laid stones. Then sweep in sand again and you're done. I trained in landscaping and have seen many botched terraces and driveway entrances.

All right, thanks. That's how I'll do it.
