Aggregate Base Course (3/4″ Minus, Crushed)

Aggregate Base Course, Crushed, 3/4” Minus

Aggregate Base Course in a 3/4" minus size with a crushed attribute is a foundational construction material made by mechanically crushing larger rocks into a blend of angular particles and fines. The "3/4" minus" designation means the largest pieces are 3/4 inch in diameter, with smaller particles and dust included. This gradation allows the material to compact tightly, creating a stable and durable base layer.




The crushed, angular nature of this aggregate ensures excellent interlocking and load-bearing capacity, making it ideal for use under roads, driveways, patios, and concrete slabs. Its ability to compact well reduces voids and provides a solid foundation, minimizing settling over time. While the fines improve compaction, they can also reduce drainage compared to clean stone, so this material is best suited for structural support rather than drainage layers. Overall, 3/4" minus crushed aggregate base course is a reliable choice for both residential and commercial base applications where strength and stability are priorities.
