Start with Class 5 for a base. Add fines and screenings where you want a path or walkway surface that packs hard underfoot.

Ground and Conditions in Lankin

Lankin sits on the Red River Valley lake plain. The ground here is deep silt and clay left by glacial Lake Agassiz, with very little stone in it.

That clay sheds water slowly, and the valley floor has almost no fall. Snowmelt and summer rain sit on yards, drives and field approaches instead of running off.

On a thin base, that water is the failure you notice first. The surface ruts, pumps and breaks apart at the edges.

Build the base deep enough and crown it so water leaves. A compacted Class 5 course carries a drive or pad through a wet spring.

Winters here are long and the ground frost is deep. The spring thaw heaves and softens gravel drives, approaches and township roads.

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.

Materials for Lankin Projects

Fines and screenings do the fine work on this ground. They pack into a firm, smooth surface for paths and walkways, and they bed pavers and flagstone.

Stone Screenings, also called crusher fines, are the material for a packed walking surface. Use them for paver and flagstone bedding and for joint fill.

Class 5 is the standard North Dakota base gravel. It goes under driveways, parking pads and shop and shed bases.

Class 5 is what you build a base out of here. It compacts into a firm course that carries a drive or a pad.

Class 13 is surface gravel with a binding fines content. It surfaces an approach, lane or gravel drive where you want a blade-friendly course rather than a full base.

Class 13 is the material for topping a lane or approach that has thinned out.

Washed rock is clean, open stone with no fines. It drains, so it goes in drain tile beds, sump discharge, downspout runs and foundation drains.

Washed Rock moves water instead of holding it. Use it where the clay will not take the water away.

Pea rock is small, rounded stone. North Dakota yards call it pea rock rather than Natural Pea Gravel.

3/8" Natural Pea Gravel suits walkways, play areas, dog runs and pipe bedding.

Black dirt is screened topsoil. It goes on lawns, grade repair and bed prep.

Top Soil gives you something to seed into over the clay.

Questions About Ordering in Lankin

What should I have ready when the truck arrives?

Have the spot for the pile cleared and open to a dump truck. The driver tips the load in one pile and leaves, so pick a spot you can work from.

Mark nothing and direct nothing. Keep vehicles, trailers and equipment out of the way so the truck can reach the spot and turn around.

What is the best base under pavers in Lankin?

Class 5 is the base under pavers here. It compacts into a firm course over the lake plain clay, which sheds water slowly and needs a base that will not rut.

Bed the pavers on stone screenings and fill the joints with the same fines. Both materials link from this page.
