Aggregate Base Course (0″ To 3″)
Applications & Uses
Aggregate Base Course in a 0" to 3" Size Range
Aggregate Base Course in a 0" to 3" size range is a foundational construction material composed of crushed stone, gravel, or recycled concrete. This blend includes particles from fine dust up to 3 inches in diameter, creating a well-graded mix that compacts tightly and provides excellent load-bearing capacity.
The wide size range is crucial for stability: smaller particles fill the gaps between larger stones, resulting in a dense, interlocked base that resists shifting and settling. This makes it ideal for use under roads, driveways, parking lots, and building pads, where a strong, stable foundation is essential. While its coarse texture and mix of fines make it less suitable for decorative or exposed surfaces, Aggregate Base Course excels in structural applications, offering reliable compaction and drainage properties.
