Applications & Uses
Aggregate Base Course - Crusher Run, 5/8" Minus
Aggregate Base Course with a Crusher Run attribute in a 5/8" minus size range is a versatile construction material composed of crushed stone blended with stone dust. The "crusher run" process ensures that the aggregate contains a mix of sizes, from 5/8" down to fine particles, which allows for excellent compaction and stability.
The 5/8" minus sizing is ideal for creating a dense, load-bearing base that resists shifting and settling. This makes it a popular choice for residential driveways, walkways, patios, and as a sub-base for asphalt or concrete paving in commercial projects. The fines in the mix help lock the larger stones together, resulting in a firm surface that is less prone to rutting or erosion. While its compactability is a major advantage, the presence of fines means it is not suitable for drainage applications where water flow is required. Overall, this material offers a cost-effective, stable foundation for a wide range of construction needs.
