Aggregate Base Course (1.25″)
Applications & Uses
Aggregate Base Course in a 1.25" Size Range
Aggregate Base Course in a 1.25" 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 1.25" size offers a balanced blend of larger aggregate pieces, which interlock for strength, and smaller particles that fill voids for improved compaction.
The larger 1.25" aggregate size enhances load distribution and drainage, making it ideal for high-traffic areas and heavy-duty applications. Its excellent compaction properties help prevent settling and rutting over time, ensuring long-term durability. Common uses include road base, sub-base for concrete slabs, and under asphalt pavements. While its coarse texture provides superior stability, it may be less suitable for decorative or surface applications where a smoother finish is desired.
