Rip Rap (4″ To 8″, Txdot)
Applications & Uses
Rip Rap (TxDOT) - 4" to 8"
Rip Rap in the 4" to 8" size range, specified to TxDOT (Texas Department of Transportation) standards, is a durable, angular stone product designed for heavy-duty erosion control and slope stabilization. Produced by mechanically breaking and sorting large rocks, this material offers excellent resistance to water flow and displacement, making it ideal for demanding civil and infrastructure projects.
The 4" to 8" size provides substantial mass and interlocking capability, ensuring stability on embankments, shorelines, culvert outlets, and bridge abutments. The TxDOT specification guarantees consistent quality and performance, which is critical for public works and commercial applications. While its large, angular pieces are not suitable for compacted surfaces or decorative landscaping, this rip rap excels in protecting against soil loss and water erosion, making it a top choice for both municipal and private projects requiring robust, long-lasting solutions.
