Aggregate Base Course (Class 2)
Applications & Uses
Aggregate Base Course in Class 2 Size Range
Aggregate Base Course in a Class 2 size range is a well-graded blend of crushed stone, gravel, and fines engineered for optimal compaction and load-bearing capacity. Produced by mechanically crushing and screening quarried rock, this material forms a stable foundation layer beneath roads, driveways, parking lots, and concrete slabs.
The Class 2 designation ensures a specific gradation, balancing coarse and fine particles for excellent compaction and minimal voids. This results in a dense, stable base that resists shifting and settling, making it ideal for both residential and commercial construction projects. Its structure promotes effective drainage while providing a solid platform for surface materials. While its high compaction makes it less permeable than open-graded aggregates, it excels in supporting heavy loads and preventing surface cracking.
