Applications & Uses
Medium Gravel: Versatile Aggregate for Construction and Landscaping
Medium gravel is a naturally occurring or mechanically crushed aggregate, typically ranging from 1/4" to 3/4" in diameter. Its moderate size makes it a popular choice for a wide variety of construction and landscaping projects, offering a balance between stability and drainage.
The medium size allows for excellent compaction while still providing sufficient voids for water to pass through, making it ideal for applications such as driveways, walkways, drainage systems, and as a base material for patios and pavers. In residential settings, medium gravel is often used for garden paths and decorative ground cover, while in commercial projects, it serves as a reliable base for roads and foundations. Its size makes it easy to handle and spread, though it may not lock together as tightly as finer aggregates, which can be a consideration for surfaces requiring maximum stability. Overall, medium gravel is valued for its versatility, ease of use, and effective drainage properties.
