#3 Stone

Description

#3 stone is a large, coarse aggregate, ranging in size from about 1/2 inch to 2 inches. It’s a foundational component in construction projects that demand high strength and durability. Known for its stability and load-bearing capabilities, #3 stone is essential for creating solid bases for heavy structures and for facilitating effective drainage in a variety of settings.

Key Features:

• Large Particle Size: Ideal for high-strength applications, its large size contributes to better load distribution and stability.
• Excellent Drainage: Its size and angular shape allow water to flow through easily, making it perfect for managing runoff and preventing water pooling.
• Durability: Resistant to weathering and wear, #3 stone maintains its integrity under heavy loads and in harsh environmental conditions.
• Versatility: Suitable for a wide range of construction and landscaping projects, from foundation layers to erosion control.

Applications in Construction:

1. Driveway and Road Base: Forms a strong and durable base layer under roads and driveways, capable of supporting heavy vehicles.
2. Erosion Control: Used in areas prone to erosion, its size and weight help to stabilize soil and prevent the washout of smaller materials.
3. Landscaping Features: Ideal for creating rugged, natural-looking features in landscape designs, such as rock gardens or as a decorative border.
4. Drainage Systems: An integral part of French drains, septic fields, and other drainage solutions, ensuring effective water management and soil stability.
