Aggregate Base Course (1″, Untreated, Apwa)
Applications & Uses
Aggregate Base Course, Untreated, APWA, 1" Size Range
Aggregate Base Course in a 1" size range, untreated and meeting APWA (American Public Works Association) specifications, is a foundational construction material commonly used beneath roads, driveways, and pavements. This material is typically produced by crushing and screening quarried rock to achieve a consistent blend of stone, sand, and fines, ensuring optimal compaction and load-bearing capacity.
The 1" size range provides a balanced mix of larger aggregate for structural strength and smaller particles for tight compaction, making it ideal for creating stable sub-bases. Being untreated means it contains natural fines, which help lock the material in place but may generate more dust during installation. APWA compliance ensures reliable quality and performance for both residential and commercial projects, including roadways, parking lots, and walkways. While its excellent compaction and load distribution are major advantages, the untreated nature may require dust control measures in dry conditions.
