What happens here

After the structural base is compacted, workers use wheelbarrows to transport and evenly spread a layer of 'smaller limestone chips,' which is referred to as the 'bedding course.' This finer aggregate layer is placed directly on top of the compacted structural stone. The bedding course provides a smooth, uniform surface upon which the pavers will be laid, allowing for precise adjustments and a level final surface.

Goal: Lay an even layer of fine aggregate for paver placement.
