Bastet Posted November 21, 2007 Share Posted November 21, 2007 Hi all,What is the word in french, for the gravelly stuff added to the mix along with sand & cement? I think we call it ballast? (surprise surprise, DIY is not my strong suit!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muscoka Posted November 21, 2007 Share Posted November 21, 2007 'Melange' would be how I describe in my local builders merchant and I get a sand and gravel mix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pierre ZFP Posted November 21, 2007 Share Posted November 21, 2007 ballast = gravillonssand = sableHave a look on www.leroymerlin.fr under 'Conseils' and do a search for Beton (concrete) more information than you could possibly need !BTW if you have a larger quantity to mix, they will deliver ready mix at a reasonable cost - even more reasonable when you factor in your time and backache Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
