Rip Rap in 8” to 18” Minus Size Range
Rip Rap in the 8" to 18" minus size range is a large, durable aggregate commonly used for erosion control and shoreline stabilization. Produced by quarrying and breaking down massive stones, this material features irregular, angular pieces that interlock effectively when placed, creating a stable barrier against water and wind.
The substantial size range of 8" to 18" minus makes this Rip Rap ideal for heavy-duty applications where maximum protection is required. Its large, angular stones resist displacement, making it a preferred choice for lining riverbanks, protecting bridge abutments, reinforcing culverts, and stabilizing slopes. In residential settings, it can be used for decorative retaining walls or to prevent soil erosion on steep grades. While its size and weight make it difficult to compact or move by hand, these same qualities ensure long-lasting performance and superior resistance to washout.Applications & Uses
