Rip Rap (8″ To 28″)
Applications & Uses
Rip Rap in 8" to 28" Size Range
Rip Rap in the 8" to 28" size range is a large, durable aggregate composed of natural stone or crushed rock. These substantial stones are specifically selected or processed to meet strict size requirements, ensuring consistency and reliability for heavy-duty applications.
The large size of this Rip Rap makes it highly effective for erosion control, shoreline stabilization, and protecting slopes or embankments from water or wind damage. Its mass and angularity help it interlock and stay in place, even under harsh conditions, making it ideal for commercial projects like bridge abutments, culvert outlets, and riverbanks, as well as residential uses such as retaining walls or decorative landscape features. While its size provides excellent stability and resistance to displacement, it is not suitable for areas requiring compaction or smooth surfaces. Overall, Rip Rap in this size range offers superior protection and longevity for demanding environments.
