Gravel (Run)
Applications & Uses
Gravel Run
Gravel run is a naturally occurring blend of crushed stone, sand, and fines, typically sourced directly from the quarry without additional screening or washing. This unprocessed material contains a mix of particle sizes, resulting in a rough, compactable aggregate ideal for foundational construction needs.
The "run" attribute means the gravel includes everything from larger stones to fine particles, which allows for excellent compaction and stability. This makes gravel run a popular choice for sub-base layers in driveways, roadways, and building pads, as well as for temporary access roads and construction site entrances. Its mixed composition provides strong load-bearing capacity, though it may be less suitable for decorative or finished surfaces due to its uneven texture and potential for dust.
