Aggregate Base Course (1″)
Applications & Uses
Aggregate Base Course in a 1" Size Range
Aggregate Base Course in a 1" size range is a foundational construction material composed of crushed stone, gravel, or recycled concrete. This material is engineered to provide a stable, load-bearing layer beneath roads, driveways, parking lots, and building pads. The 1" size range ensures a balanced blend of larger aggregate for strength and smaller particles for compaction, resulting in a dense, durable base.
The 1" aggregate size is ideal for achieving optimal compaction and load distribution, making it suitable for both residential and commercial applications such as road sub-bases, pathways, and under concrete slabs. Its structure promotes excellent drainage while minimizing settlement and shifting. While the coarse texture may make it less suitable for decorative surfaces, its strength and stability are unmatched for foundational work.
