Niagara Park · Gwandalan · Lake Macquarie, Ocean floor, Cowra white & basalt mixes2023–24

Exposed-aggregate driveways

Exposed aggregate is most of what East Edge pours, and the mixes are named on every post: “ocean floor” (80% limestone, 20% basalt) at Niagara Park and Gwandalan; 80% Cowra white / 20% basalt with 21kg of black oxide from Premier Concrete; 100% Cowra white with oxide, or ivory with arctic oxide, on the lighter driveways.

Scope

  • Niagara Park — ocean floor exposed (Boral)
  • Gwandalan — 50m² ocean floor, 80% limestone / 20% basalt
  • Cowra white / basalt / black oxide with grated drains
  • 100% Cowra white with oxide new-build driveway
