Sand Blend (Class 5, Gravel, Sand)
Applications & Uses
Sand Blend (Class 5) - Gravel & Sand Mix
Sand Blend in a Class 5 size range is a carefully engineered mixture of gravel and sand, designed to provide optimal compaction and stability. This blend is typically produced by combining screened sand with crushed gravel, resulting in a well-graded aggregate that meets Class 5 specifications for base materials.
The combination of gravel and sand in this blend ensures excellent load-bearing capacity and compaction, making it ideal for use as a base layer in road construction, driveways, parking lots, and patios. The Class 5 size range offers a balanced particle distribution, which helps minimize voids and provides a stable foundation for both residential and commercial projects. While the gravel component adds strength and drainage, the sand fills gaps for a smoother, more compacted surface. This material is easy to work with and provides reliable performance, though it may require proper grading and compaction to achieve the best results.
