The process for constructing paths, driveways and patios around the house is a little more complicated. For this purpose, a bedding layer of dry concrete mix instead of sand is used, and the gaps between pavers are jointed with sand or dry concrete. You will also need an edging either side of the paved area to hold the pavers in place. A vibrating plate compactor is often used to firm down the bedding layer and the paving blocks.
