Hi, I still have to install 0/32 as a base for my house entrance platform, which I was able to get on short notice.

The structure would be about 25 cm of 0/32, then 10 cm of concrete, and on top of that the concrete platform.

Can the 25 cm of 0/32 be installed completely and then compacted? Or is it better to install it in layers and compact every approx. 12 cm?

Unfortunately, I couldn’t get a vibrating plate on short notice, or is a hand tamper enough for the beginning and then compact again at the end when a vibrating plate is available?

By hand? Layer by layer and not only after 12 cm.

It’s settled, the neighbor had a 180 kg vibrating plate in use today that I was allowed to borrow.
