Fill Material (4″ Minus)
Applications & Uses
Fill Material in a 4" Minus Size Range
Fill material in a 4" minus size range is a versatile aggregate blend consisting of rocks, gravel, and fines, with individual pieces measuring up to 4 inches in diameter. This material is typically produced by crushing and screening larger stones, resulting in a mix of coarse and fine particles.
The 4" minus sizing means that all particles are 4 inches or smaller, allowing for effective compaction while still providing substantial bulk. The presence of both large and small particles helps fill voids efficiently, making it ideal for building up subgrades, backfilling trenches, and creating stable bases for roads, driveways, and building pads. Its excellent compaction properties make it a preferred choice for projects requiring a solid foundation, though it is less suitable for applications needing precise grading or a smooth finish.
Commonly used in both residential and commercial construction, 4" minus fill material is valued for its affordability and ability to stabilize soft or uneven ground. However, due to its coarse nature, it is not recommended for surface layers where a finer, more decorative finish is desired.
