Crushed Stone (6″ To 12″)
Applications & Uses
Crushed Stone in a 6" to 12" Size Range
Crushed stone in the 6" to 12" size range is a large, angular aggregate produced by mechanically breaking down natural rock. This material is characterized by its substantial size and rough, irregular edges, making it ideal for heavy-duty construction and landscaping applications.
The large size of these stones provides excellent stability and resistance to movement, which is crucial for projects requiring robust erosion control, such as riprap for shorelines, riverbanks, and drainage channels. It is also commonly used as a base layer for retaining walls, culverts, and other structures where significant weight and support are needed. While its size makes it less suitable for compacting or decorative uses, it excels in situations where strength and durability are paramount.
