Aggregate Base Course (Faa P-209)
Applications & Uses
Aggregate Base Course with FAA P-209 Specification
Aggregate Base Course meeting FAA P-209 standards is a high-quality, well-graded blend of crushed stone and fines, specifically engineered for use in airfield and heavy-duty pavement construction. The FAA P-209 attribute ensures the material meets strict gradation, durability, and compaction requirements set by the Federal Aviation Administration, making it ideal for projects where structural integrity and long-term performance are critical.
This base course is designed to provide a stable, load-bearing foundation beneath asphalt or concrete surfaces. Its carefully controlled composition allows for excellent compaction, minimizing settlement and maximizing support for overlying layers. Common applications include airport runways, taxiways, roadways, parking lots, and other high-traffic areas. The P-209 specification also means reduced dust and consistent performance, though the material may be more costly than standard base courses due to its rigorous quality controls.
