Crushed Stone (#4 To 1″, Caltrans)
Applications & Uses
Crushed Stone Caltrans, #4 to 1" Size Range
Crushed stone in the Caltrans specification, sized from #4 to 1", is a high-quality aggregate engineered to meet strict state standards for road and infrastructure projects. Produced by mechanically crushing durable rock, this material features angular edges that interlock for superior stability and load-bearing capacity.
The #4 to 1" size range offers an optimal balance between compaction and drainage. The larger particles provide structural strength, while the smaller sizes fill gaps for a dense, stable base. This makes it ideal for Caltrans-approved road bases, highway shoulders, and subbase layers in both commercial and residential construction. Its angular shape resists shifting under heavy loads, but may be less comfortable for barefoot areas or decorative landscaping. Overall, this crushed stone is valued for its reliability, compliance with state standards, and performance in demanding applications.
