Crushed Stone (Class 2, Limestone)
Applications & Uses
Crushed Stone - Limestone, Class 2 Size
Crushed stone made from limestone in a Class 2 size range is a versatile construction aggregate known for its durability and strength. Produced by mechanically crushing limestone rock, this material features angular edges that interlock well, providing excellent stability for a variety of construction applications.
The Class 2 size range offers a balanced particle size, making it ideal for use as a base material in road construction, driveways, and parking lots. Its angular limestone composition ensures superior load-bearing capacity and compaction, which is essential for supporting heavy traffic and structural foundations. Additionally, limestone's natural resistance to weathering and its ability to drain water efficiently make it a preferred choice for sub-base layers, drainage systems, and retaining wall backfill. While its angularity aids in compaction, it may be less suitable for decorative or barefoot areas due to its rough texture.
