Surge Stone in a 3.5” Minus Size Range
Surge stone in a 3.5" minus size range is a large, crushed aggregate commonly produced from granite or limestone. The "minus" designation means the material includes pieces up to 3.5 inches in diameter, along with smaller fragments and fines resulting from the crushing process. This blend of sizes creates a rough, angular texture that interlocks well when compacted.
The substantial size of surge stone makes it ideal for heavy-duty applications where stability and load-bearing capacity are essential. It is frequently used as a base layer for construction entrances, roadways, and large-scale drainage projects, as well as for erosion control on slopes and embankments. The mix of large and small particles helps the material lock together, providing excellent support and minimizing movement under heavy loads. However, due to its coarse nature, surge stone is not suitable for finished surfaces or areas requiring smooth compaction.Applications & Uses
