Aggregate Base Course (3/4″, Dense Grade)
Applications & Uses
Aggregate Base Course, Dense Grade, 3/4" Size
Aggregate Base Course in a dense grade and 3/4" size range is a foundational construction material composed of crushed stone, gravel, and fines. The dense grade attribute means the mix contains a well-graded blend of particle sizes, allowing for excellent compaction and load-bearing capacity. The 3/4" size ensures a balance between stability and workability, making it ideal for supporting heavy loads while still being easy to spread and compact.
This material is commonly used as a sub-base for roads, driveways, parking lots, and concrete slabs in both residential and commercial projects. Its dense composition minimizes voids, reducing the risk of settling and providing a stable, long-lasting foundation. While its excellent compaction and strength are major advantages, the presence of fines means it is less permeable, making it less suitable for drainage layers but ideal where stability and durability are priorities.
