Aggregate Base Course (Clean)
Applications & Uses
Clean Aggregate Base Course
Clean Aggregate Base Course is a high-quality construction material composed of crushed stone or gravel that has been thoroughly washed to remove fines, dust, and debris. The "clean" attribute ensures that the aggregate is free from clay and silt, resulting in improved drainage and reduced compaction issues compared to unwashed base materials.
This material is ideal for use as a stable foundation layer beneath roads, driveways, parking lots, and concrete slabs. Its clean composition allows water to pass through easily, making it especially suitable for applications where drainage is critical, such as under permeable pavements or in areas prone to water accumulation. The absence of fines also means it is less likely to shift or settle over time, providing long-lasting support. While clean aggregate base course offers excellent drainage and stability, it may be less suitable for projects requiring tight compaction, as the lack of fines can make it harder to achieve a dense, solid surface.
