For thinner pieces we place a bed of mortar or mortar/concrete mix to support them. For thick pieces, just a layer of 1/4 x dust base rock.

It can depend on the freeze-thaw you might have in your area. We do have more details in our architectural center at https://buechelstone.sharefile.com/ for these type of installations.
