Applications & Uses
Aggregate Base Course - TxDOT Type B, Grade 3 (2.5" Minus)
Aggregate Base Course specified as TxDOT Type B, Grade 3 (2.5" minus) is a high-quality blend of crushed stone and fines engineered to meet Texas Department of Transportation standards. The "2.5" minus" size range means the material contains particles up to 2.5 inches in diameter, with smaller sizes and fines included for optimal compaction and stability.
This size and gradation provide excellent load-bearing capacity and compaction, making it ideal for use as a foundational layer in roadways, parking lots, and large commercial or industrial projects. The inclusion of fines helps the material lock together, reducing voids and creating a stable, durable base. While its coarse nature offers superior drainage and strength, it may be less suitable for applications requiring a smooth or decorative finish. Overall, TxDOT Type B, Grade 3 aggregate base is a reliable choice for heavy-duty structural support in both public infrastructure and private development projects.
