Crushed Stone (3″ Minus, Ca-2)
Applications & Uses
Crushed Stone Ca-2, 3" Minus
Crushed Stone with a Ca-2 specification in a 3" minus size range is a robust aggregate commonly used in heavy-duty construction applications. This material consists of angular stone fragments, all passing through a 3-inch screen, with a mix of smaller particles and fines. The Ca-2 designation indicates compliance with specific gradation and compaction standards, ensuring reliable performance for structural base layers.
The 3" minus size provides excellent load-bearing capacity and compacts well, making it ideal for use as a subbase for roads, parking lots, and large driveways. Its angular shape locks together under pressure, reducing shifting and settling over time. While the presence of fines aids in compaction, it may limit drainage compared to cleaner, larger aggregates. This makes Ca-2 3" minus crushed stone a preferred choice for foundational support where stability and strength are critical.
