Rip Rap (Type E, Ia Dot)
Applications & Uses
Rip Rap Ia Dot, Type E
Rip Rap with the Ia Dot attribute in a Type E size range is a robust, heavy-duty aggregate designed for demanding erosion control and stabilization projects. Rip Rap is typically composed of large, durable stones or crushed rock, engineered to withstand the forces of water and weather. The Ia Dot specification ensures the material meets strict standards for size, durability, and performance, making it suitable for state and municipal projects.
The Type E size range refers to larger stone pieces, ideal for high-energy environments where significant protection is needed-such as shorelines, bridge abutments, culvert outlets, and steep embankments. This size resists displacement and provides excellent interlocking, reducing washout and soil loss. While its large, irregular stones make it less suitable for decorative or pedestrian areas, Rip Rap Ia Dot, Type E excels in both residential and commercial applications requiring maximum erosion control and structural stability.
