Road Base (1″, Recycled, Spec)
Applications & Uses
Recycled Road Base, Spec, 1" Size Range
Recycled road base in a 1" size range, produced to spec, is a versatile aggregate made from crushed and processed reclaimed concrete and asphalt. This material is engineered to meet specific gradation and compaction standards, ensuring reliable performance for demanding construction applications. The 1" particle size offers a balanced blend of larger and finer pieces, promoting excellent load-bearing capacity while still allowing for effective compaction.
The recycled attribute makes this road base an environmentally responsible choice, reducing landfill waste and conserving natural resources. Its spec certification guarantees consistency and suitability for use as a sub-base in roadways, parking lots, driveways, and under concrete slabs. The 1" size is ideal for creating stable foundations that resist shifting and settling, while the angular nature of the crushed material enhances interlock and stability. While recycled road base may contain minor traces of non-aggregate material, its performance and cost-effectiveness make it a popular option for both residential and commercial projects.
