Aggregate Base Course (Class 7, Wet)

Aggregate Base Course, Wet, Class 7

Aggregate Base Course in a Class 7 size range with a wet attribute is a foundational construction material composed of crushed stone, gravel, and fines. The "wet" designation indicates that the material has been moistened, which helps reduce dust during handling and installation and can improve compaction. Class 7 refers to a specific gradation standard, typically featuring a well-graded mix of particle sizes that ensures stability and load-bearing capacity.




This material is commonly used as a sub-base for roads, driveways, parking lots, and building pads, providing a stable and durable foundation for asphalt or concrete surfaces. The wet attribute makes it easier to achieve optimal compaction, resulting in a solid, long-lasting base. However, the added moisture may increase the material's weight and could require additional drying time in certain applications. Overall, wet Class 7 Aggregate Base Course is ideal for projects where dust control and superior compaction are priorities.
