Sand (Class 2)
Applications & Uses
Class 2 Sand
Class 2 sand is a versatile construction aggregate known for its medium particle size and consistent gradation. Produced by screening and washing natural sand deposits, this material offers a balance between fine and coarse grains, making it suitable for a wide range of construction and landscaping applications.
The Class 2 size range provides improved compaction and stability compared to finer sands, while still allowing for adequate drainage. This makes it an excellent choice for use as a base material under pavers, concrete slabs, and asphalt, as well as for backfilling trenches and utility lines. Its gradation helps reduce shifting and settling, supporting long-term durability in both residential and commercial projects. While not as smooth as finer sands, Class 2 sand offers reliable performance where structural support and drainage are priorities.
