Sand Blend (Class 5)
Applications & Uses
Sand Blend in Class 5 Size Range
Sand Blend in a Class 5 size range is a versatile aggregate mixture commonly used in construction and landscaping. Class 5 refers to a well-graded blend of sand, gravel, and crushed stone, typically processed to meet specific gradation standards for base materials. This blend is engineered for optimal compaction and stability, making it an essential choice for foundational layers.
The Class 5 size range ensures a balanced mix of fine and coarse particles, which allows for excellent load-bearing capacity and compaction. This makes Sand Blend ideal for use as a base under driveways, roads, patios, sidewalks, and parking areas in both residential and commercial projects. Its well-graded composition minimizes voids, reducing the risk of settling and providing a stable surface for paving or concrete. While it compacts very well, it is not typically used as a decorative surface due to its utilitarian appearance.
