Aggregate Base Course (Class 7)
Applications & Uses
Aggregate Base Course in Class 7 Size Range
Aggregate Base Course in a Class 7 size range is a well-graded blend of crushed stone, gravel, and fines, engineered to provide a stable foundation for a variety of construction projects. This material is produced by mechanically crushing and screening quarried rock to meet specific gradation requirements, ensuring a consistent mix of particle sizes.
The Class 7 size range is designed for optimal compaction and load-bearing capacity, making it ideal for use as a sub-base beneath roads, driveways, parking lots, and concrete slabs. Its well-graded composition allows for excellent interlock and minimal voids, resulting in a dense, stable layer that resists shifting and settling. While it compacts very well, the presence of fines means it may not drain as quickly as more open-graded aggregates, but this also helps prevent rutting and washouts. Aggregate Base Course in Class 7 sizing is a reliable choice for both residential and commercial applications where a strong, durable base is essential.
