Product Overview
#8 Coarse Aggregate
Medium-sized crushed limestone used for driveway surfaces, backfill, and general construction applications. Its more uniform sizing allows for consistent placement and surface behavior. Performance depends on base preparation, drainage conditions, and traffic levels.
Why This Material Works
The smaller stone size allows for easier placement and shaping while still providing reliable surface behavior when installed over a stable base.
Common Applications
- Driveways and surface stone
- Backfill
- Road construction support layers
Material Characteristics
- Uniform sizing for consistent placement
- Provides stable surface behavior
- Works well across varied site conditions
Planning Notes
#8 performs best when installed over a compacted base. Drainage and edge containment can influence long-term appearance and performance.
