Aggregate Base Course (#200 To 6″, Granular)
Applications & Uses
Aggregate Base Course - Granular, #200 to 6"
Aggregate Base Course in a granular form, ranging from #200 fines up to 6-inch particles, is a versatile construction material engineered for foundational strength and stability. Produced by crushing and screening natural stone or gravel, this blend combines fine particles with larger aggregates, creating a well-graded mix that compacts tightly and resists shifting.
The wide size range ensures excellent load distribution and interlocking, making it ideal for use beneath roads, driveways, parking lots, and building pads. The granular attribute allows for superior compaction, reducing voids and providing a stable base for asphalt, concrete, or pavers. While the presence of fines (#200) enhances binding and stability, it may reduce drainage compared to more open-graded materials. Overall, this granular aggregate base course is a reliable choice for both residential and commercial projects requiring a durable, long-lasting foundation.
