Heavy Fill Material <24" Size Range

Heavy fill material in a size range of less than 24 inches is a robust aggregate commonly used in large-scale construction and earthwork projects. This material typically consists of a mix of soil, rock, and stone fragments, sourced from excavation or quarrying processes. Its substantial weight and coarse composition make it ideal for applications where significant mass and stability are required.

The large, sub-24-inch size allows for rapid filling of deep voids, embankments, or low-lying areas, providing a solid base for roads, building pads, or retaining walls. The "heavy" attribute ensures minimal shifting and excellent load-bearing capacity, though it may be less suitable for areas requiring precise compaction or a smooth finish. Common uses include backfilling, site grading, and foundation support in both residential and commercial developments. While its bulk offers excellent stability, it may require mechanical equipment for placement and compaction.
