#1 Stone (1.5″ To 3.5″, Nysdot)
Applications & Uses
#1 Stone, NYSDOT Approved, 1.5" to 3.5"
#1 Stone in a 1.5" to 3.5" size range, NYSDOT approved, is a large, crushed aggregate produced from high-quality quarried rock. The NYSDOT (New York State Department of Transportation) specification ensures this material meets strict standards for durability, gradation, and performance, making it suitable for demanding infrastructure projects.
The larger size of #1 Stone provides excellent load-bearing capacity and superior drainage, making it ideal for use as a base layer in road construction, railroad ballast, and large-scale drainage systems. Its angular shape helps lock pieces together, reducing movement and increasing stability under heavy loads. While its size makes it less suitable for compacting or decorative applications, it excels in structural and civil engineering projects where strength and drainage are priorities.
