  2. One tonne of screed material will cover an area of approximately 9m2 when laid at thickness of 50 mm. It is essential that the screed material is used before the working life specified by the manufacturer expires. On no account should the screed be remixed in a mechanical mixer. Screeds have to be protected from traffic and damage after laying.
