Fill Material - Select, Fractured

Select, fractured fill material is a high-quality aggregate chosen for its superior compaction and stability. This material is produced by mechanically crushing larger rocks, resulting in angular, fractured particles that interlock effectively when placed and compacted. The "select" designation means the fill meets specific gradation and quality standards, ensuring consistent performance for demanding construction applications.

The fractured nature of this fill material enhances its load-bearing capacity and reduces the risk of settling, making it ideal for use as a subbase beneath roads, building pads, and foundations. It is also commonly used for backfilling retaining walls, trench fills, and other structural applications where stability is critical. While its angular texture provides excellent compaction and support, it may be less suitable for decorative or surface applications due to its rough appearance. Overall, select, fractured fill material is a reliable choice for projects requiring strong, stable, and well-compacted ground support.
