Crushed Stone - VDOT 21A, Non Spec, Limestone, 1.5" Minus

Crushed stone in a 1.5" minus size with a VDOT 21A, non-spec limestone attribute is a versatile aggregate blend ideal for a range of construction and landscaping projects. This material is produced by mechanically crushing limestone, resulting in a mix of stone fragments and fine particles that compact well. The "1.5" minus" designation means the largest pieces are 1.5 inches, with smaller sizes and fines included, ensuring excellent compaction and stability.

The VDOT 21A gradation is commonly used for base layers under driveways, roadways, patios, and walkways, providing a solid foundation that resists shifting and settling. The non-spec nature makes it suitable for general use where strict state specifications are not required, offering cost savings for residential and light commercial projects. Limestone's natural durability and angular shape enhance load-bearing capacity and interlock, while the fines fill voids for a smoother, more stable surface. This material is easy to work with, but may generate some dust during installation. Overall, it's an excellent choice for driveways, parking pads, and as a sub-base for pavers or concrete.
