#57 Stone (#4 To 1″, Aashto)
Applications & Uses
#57 Stone (AASHTO, #4 to 1" Size Range)
#57 stone in the AASHTO specification, sized from #4 to 1", is a versatile crushed aggregate commonly used in construction. Produced by mechanically crushing larger rocks, this material features angular edges that interlock well, providing stability and strength. The AASHTO designation ensures the stone meets strict standards for gradation and quality, making it a reliable choice for both residential and commercial projects.
The #4 to 1" size range offers an optimal balance between drainage and compaction. Its larger particles allow water to flow through easily, reducing the risk of pooling and erosion, while still providing a stable base. This makes #57 stone ideal for use in driveways, drainage systems, septic fields, and as a sub-base for roads and patios. The angular shape enhances load-bearing capacity but may make the material less comfortable for barefoot areas. Overall, #57 AASHTO stone is valued for its durability, excellent drainage properties, and compliance with industry standards.
