Chip Stone (3/8″, Ca-16)
Applications & Uses
Chip Stone Ca-16 in a 3/8" Size Range
Chip Stone with a Ca-16 attribute in a 3/8" size range is a finely crushed aggregate commonly produced from high-quality stone sources. The Ca-16 designation indicates a specific gradation and consistency, ensuring reliable performance in construction applications. The 3/8" size offers a balance between compactability and drainage, making it versatile for various uses.
This material is ideal for use as a top layer in asphalt paving, chip seal applications, and as a bedding layer for pavers or flagstone. Its small, uniform size allows for excellent interlock and compaction, resulting in a stable surface that resists shifting. The fine gradation of Ca-16 chip stone also helps reduce voids, minimizing weed growth and providing a smoother finish. While its compact nature is a benefit for stability, it may not be suitable for applications requiring high permeability or decorative appeal.
