Crushed Stone (1″ To 4″)
Applications & Uses
Crushed Stone in a 1" to 4" Size Range
Crushed stone in the 1" to 4" size range is a versatile aggregate produced by mechanically breaking down larger rocks into angular fragments. This material is known for its durability and strength, making it a reliable choice for demanding construction and landscaping projects.
The larger 1" to 4" size provides excellent drainage and load-bearing capabilities, which is ideal for use as a base material in road construction, erosion control, and large-scale drainage systems. It is also commonly used for stabilizing soft or muddy areas, creating French drains, and as a foundation layer beneath driveways, parking lots, and retaining walls. While its coarse texture makes it less suitable for decorative or surface applications, it excels in structural roles where compaction and stability are critical. The angular shape of the crushed stone helps it lock together, reducing movement and providing a solid foundation.
