Bedding Material (MDOT) in 3/4" to 1.5" Size Range

Bedding material with the MDOT specification in a 3/4" to 1.5" size range is a high-quality aggregate blend designed for optimal stability and drainage. Produced by crushing and screening natural stone, this material meets strict Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) standards, ensuring consistency and reliability for demanding construction projects.

The 3/4" to 1.5" size range offers excellent load distribution and prevents excessive compaction, making it ideal for use as a base layer beneath roads, driveways, and concrete slabs. Its larger particle size promotes superior drainage, reducing the risk of water accumulation and frost heave. Common applications include bedding for pipes, utility trenches, and underlayment for pavers in both residential and commercial settings. While its coarser texture may not be suitable for finished surfaces, it excels in structural support and long-term durability.
