Top Course (Crushed, Top Course)
Applications & Uses
Top Course Crushed Aggregate
Top Course crushed aggregate is a premium construction material specifically processed for use as the uppermost layer in roadways, driveways, and pathways. Produced by mechanically crushing larger stones, this material features angular particles that interlock tightly, providing a stable and durable surface.
The "crushed, top course" attribute ensures excellent compaction and load-bearing capacity, making it ideal for high-traffic areas and as a base for asphalt or concrete paving. Its angular texture reduces shifting and rutting, resulting in a smoother, longer-lasting finish. Common applications include residential driveways, commercial parking lots, and as a finishing layer for gravel roads. While its superior compaction is a major advantage, it may be less permeable than coarser, uncrushed aggregates, so proper drainage design is recommended.
