Crushed Stone (3/4″, Quartzite)
Applications & Uses
3/4" Quartzite Crushed Stone
3/4" quartzite crushed stone is a durable construction aggregate produced by mechanically crushing high-quality quartzite rock into angular fragments. The 3/4" size range ensures a balance between compaction and drainage, making it a versatile choice for a variety of building and landscaping projects.
The quartzite attribute means this crushed stone is exceptionally hard and resistant to weathering, providing long-lasting performance in demanding environments. Its angular shape helps the material lock together when compacted, offering excellent load-bearing capacity for driveways, road bases, and parking areas. The 3/4" size is ideal for drainage applications such as French drains and septic systems, as it allows water to flow freely while preventing soil migration.
Common uses include residential driveways, walkways, patios, and as a base material for pavers. In commercial settings, it is often used for road construction, erosion control, and as a stable foundation for heavy structures. The main advantages of 3/4" quartzite crushed stone are its strength, longevity, and effective drainage properties. However, its angular texture can make it less comfortable for barefoot areas and slightly more challenging to spread evenly compared to rounded aggregates.
