can i use this inbetween my existing interlocking bricks. Patio is old and needs to be filed inbetween the bricks.
Yes you can. I have installed some new bricks alongside my old ones and used the limestone screening as a base and filler between both. I brushed off the excess when I was done since there are rocky bits in the screening that are too big to get into small cracks however, I am really pleased with the result.

How many kilos of limestone gravel would you recommend under 7 concrete patio stones to support a shed? The shed is 7x9 And the remainder of base area is existing concrete?
If your base is 2 inches deep, assuming you have crushed rock underneath…
One bag of this screening covers 3 sq ft at 2 inches deep, that's what the specs say at least. I have yet to use it as I'm still waiting for the delivery from Lowe's, which has been delayed.
Your area is 7 ft x 9 ft, that's 63 sq ft.
So you need 63/3 = 21 bags at 2 inches deep.
If your base is less or more deep, repeat these calculations with new figures. For instance, if your base is 3 inches deep, you will need 21 x 3 / 2 = 31.5 bags (or 32 bags).
Based on what others have said, get a couple bags more than what you need, or just adjust the depth of your paver base.

How many bags of screening do I need for 8x8 (64 sq.ft.)patio?
You will need approximately 4 to 5 bags of screening rocks, that will make a good base; thats what I use to make my patio which is just a little bigger than an 8x8 patio

Easy to Handle
I used this screening as a base under my front stone steps. The bags were small enough to be easy to handle and they didn't mess up my car trunk with a lot of dust. It is pricier than getting it delivered in bulk but the convenience of the bagged product was worth it to me. I ended up using about 10% more screening than the guidelines on the package recommended.

Great for cobblestones!
We have a cobblestone driveway that needs 'topping' up periodically with limestone. This product worked great--just dump out the bag, and sweep it into the areas. Driveway looks so much better after some maintenance with limestone!

Poor quality product
This screening is more dust than the tiny chips of stone that are required to support steps or pavers. The dust accumulated and marks the pavers. The dust also hardens slightly with rain or watering. I’d never use it again.

Half the bag is limestone dust not screenings
I bought four bags and found that half of each bag was filled with dust that made quite a mess. After opening and dumping two bags, I flipped over the other two bags and noticed that they were all dust underneath. Like buying a bag of popcorn and finding the bottom half is filled with unpopped kernels.
