Rip Rap (10″)
Applications & Uses
Rip Rap in a 10" Size Range
Rip Rap in a 10" size range is a large, durable stone material commonly used for erosion control and shoreline stabilization. Produced by quarrying and breaking down larger rocks, these stones are selected for their substantial size and weight, which help them resist displacement by water or wind.
The 10" size range is particularly effective for heavy-duty applications where maximum stability is required. Its large dimensions make it ideal for protecting riverbanks, bridge abutments, culverts, and coastal areas from severe erosion. In residential and commercial projects, 10" Rip Rap is often used to reinforce slopes, create retaining walls, and line drainage channels. While its size provides excellent resistance to movement and superior protection, it can be challenging to install without heavy equipment and is not suitable for areas requiring a smooth or compacted surface.
