Materials for Carson Projects

Raising grade is the job that decides everything above it. Fill dirt goes down first to lift low ground and backfill around a pad before any gravel course goes on top.

Once the grade is where you want it, Class 5 is the base for a driveway, a parking pad or a shop floor. It is the standard North Dakota base gravel, and it compacts into a firm surface.

Order it at Class 5.

For surfacing an approach or a lane where you want a binding, blade-friendly gravel rather than a full base course, Class 13 is the material. It is also called surface gravel, and it links to Class 13.

If a lane or yard has thinned out and just needs topping up, road gravel, also called driveway gravel, is the order. See Driveway Gravel.

Water is the other half of the job. Washed rock, called 1 inch washed rock or drain rock, goes into drain tile beds, sump discharge and downspout runs.

It is clean, so water moves through it instead of sitting. Order it at Washed Rock.

For a packed walking surface or bedding under pavers and flagstone, stone screenings, also called crusher fines, tighten up and hold. See Stone Screenings.

Ground and Conditions in Carson

Across the Missouri Slope, the ground under a thin soil cover is soft Fort Union sandstone, siltstone, claystone and lignite, with swelling clay in places. Glacial material is patchy, and sand and gravel sit on the Missouri River terraces.

That matters because soft ground and swelling clay move under a base that was built too thin. Fill and a proper gravel course spread the load instead of letting it punch through.

Drainage out here is well developed, so water moves fast down the draws and coulees instead of standing. The problem is runoff arriving all at once and cutting a drive apart rather than ponding on it.

Gully cutting in soft shale and claystone follows that runoff, and steep cut slopes can slump. Riprap, graded Grade I, II and III here, armors culvert outlets and banks against it.

Base, driveway and paver work runs from the end of the spring thaw into late fall. Frozen ground stops compaction through the winter, and spring load restrictions slow hauling while the frost comes out.

Questions About Material in Carson

What is the best base under pavers in Carson?
