Aggregate Base Course, Cm-10, 3/4" to 1.5"

Aggregate Base Course with a Cm-10 attribute in a 3/4" to 1.5" size range is a foundational construction material composed of crushed stone or gravel. This material is engineered to provide a stable, load-bearing layer beneath roads, driveways, parking lots, and building pads. The Cm-10 specification ensures a consistent gradation and compaction quality, making it ideal for structural support.

The 3/4" to 1.5" size range offers an optimal balance between compaction and drainage. Larger aggregate particles interlock for strength, while the gradation allows for effective water movement, reducing the risk of pooling and frost heave. This makes it suitable for both residential and commercial applications, including road sub-bases, pathways, and under concrete slabs. While its coarser texture may make it less suitable for decorative surfaces, it excels in durability and long-term performance where stability is critical.
