Aggregate Base Course (Type 1)

Aggregate Base Course - Type 1

Aggregate Base Course in a Type 1 size range is a well-graded blend of crushed stone, gravel, and fines engineered for optimal compaction and load-bearing capacity. Produced by mechanically crushing and screening quarried rock, this material forms a stable, dense foundation layer for a variety of construction projects.

The Type 1 size range ensures a balanced mix of particle sizes, allowing for excellent compaction and minimal voids. This results in a strong, stable base that resists shifting and settling, making it ideal for use beneath roads, driveways, parking lots, and concrete slabs. Its structure promotes effective load distribution and drainage, reducing the risk of surface cracking and water pooling. While its dense composition makes it less suitable for decorative or high-drainage applications, Aggregate Base Course Type 1 is a reliable, cost-effective choice for both residential and commercial foundational work.
