Crushed Stone (3/4″, Unwashed, Coarse)
Applications & Uses
Crushed Stone, Unwashed, Coarse, 3/4" Size
3/4" unwashed, coarse crushed stone is a durable aggregate produced by mechanically breaking down larger rocks into angular fragments. The unwashed attribute means the material retains fine particles and dust from the crushing process, which can aid in compaction but may also introduce some dustiness to the worksite.
The 3/4" size range is ideal for providing structural stability while allowing for effective drainage, making it a popular choice for base layers in driveways, roadways, and parking lots. Its coarse, angular texture helps lock pieces together, reducing shifting under load. However, because it is unwashed, this material may not be suitable for decorative or exposed applications where cleanliness and appearance are priorities. It is also commonly used in construction backfill, under concrete slabs, and for general site grading where compaction and load-bearing are important.
