Road Base (1″, P-209, Spec, Airport)
Applications & Uses
Road Base P-209 Spec, Airport, 1" Size Range
Road Base with P-209 specification in a 1" size range is a high-quality aggregate blend designed specifically for airport construction and heavy-duty paving projects. Manufactured by crushing and screening durable stone materials, this road base meets stringent FAA P-209 standards, ensuring optimal strength, stability, and load-bearing capacity for critical infrastructure.
The 1" size range provides an ideal balance between compaction and drainage, making it suitable for subbase layers beneath runways, taxiways, and aprons. Its well-graded composition allows for excellent interlock and minimal voids, reducing settlement and providing a stable foundation for asphalt or concrete surfaces. While primarily used in airport and commercial applications, it can also be utilized for high-traffic roadways and industrial yards. The P-209 spec ensures consistent quality and performance, though the coarse size may require mechanical compaction and is not intended for decorative or fine-finish surfaces.
