Screenings (Ca-1, Idot)
Applications & Uses
Screenings with Ca-1, IDOT Attribute
Screenings with the Ca-1, IDOT attribute are finely crushed stone byproducts produced during the processing of larger aggregates. These screenings are typically composed of small, angular particles that pass through a specific sieve size, resulting in a compactable material ideal for a variety of construction applications. The Ca-1, IDOT designation ensures the material meets Illinois Department of Transportation standards for quality and consistency, making it a reliable choice for both residential and commercial projects.
The fine texture of screenings allows for excellent compaction, creating a stable base layer for pavers, patios, and walkways. This makes them especially popular for use under concrete slabs, driveways, and as a leveling agent for hardscape projects. The Ca-1, IDOT attribute guarantees minimal dust and optimal particle size distribution, which enhances workability and reduces settling over time. While screenings are not ideal for drainage applications due to their compacting nature, they excel in providing a smooth, even surface and are easy to work with for both DIYers and contractors.
