Aggregate Base Course as Subbase
Aggregate Base Course (ABC) used as a subbase is a foundational construction material composed of crushed stone, gravel, or recycled concrete. It is engineered to provide a stable, load-bearing layer beneath pavements, roads, and concrete slabs. The material is typically produced by mechanically crushing and screening quarried rock or recycled materials to achieve a well-graded blend of particle sizes.
As a subbase, Aggregate Base Course is valued for its excellent compaction properties and ability to distribute loads evenly, reducing the risk of settling or cracking in overlying surfaces. Its composition allows for effective drainage while maintaining structural integrity, making it ideal for use under driveways, parking lots, roadways, patios, and building foundations. The main advantage of using ABC as a subbase is its durability and cost-effectiveness, though it may require proper installation and compaction to achieve optimal performance.Applications & Uses
