Materials for Maddock Projects

Grading and bed prep start with soil and fill before any gravel goes down. Fill dirt raises grade and backfills low spots.

Black dirt, which is how yards here ask for screened topsoil, finishes a lawn or repairs a washed-out grade.

Garden soil goes into raised beds, vegetable plots and shelterbelt planting pockets. Load it where the beds will sit and work it into the existing ground.

For the base course, Class 5 is the standard North Dakota base gravel. It firms up driveways, parking pads, and shop and shed bases.

Class 13 is the surfacing gravel for an approach, lane or gravel drive where a binding, blade-friendly layer is wanted instead of a full base. Order Class 13 to top a lane that has thinned out.

Washed rock and 3/4" crushed stone handle water. Use washed rock in drain tile beds, sump discharge and downspout runs.

Use Washed Rock or 3/4" Crushed Stone around a foundation drain.

Sand and decorative stone round out an order. Mason sand beds pavers and block; river rock mulches beds and holds up to wind far better than bark.

Ground and Conditions in Maddock

Water is the driver here. Across the Devils Lake Basin, runoff collects rather than drains at normal lake levels, so it has to be moved or shed.

The wet cycle that began in 1993 raised the lake more than 26 feet and flooded roads, approaches and farmland.

Raising grade is ordinary work in this part of the state. Fill dirt brings a low yard or approach up before gravel goes on top, so water runs off instead of standing.

Ground across the basin is rolling glacial till, with lake silt and clay and salt-affected ground on shorelines. Clay holds water.

A clean, open stone like washed rock gives that water somewhere to go.

Erosion follows the same water. Wave action works on a shoreline that keeps shifting, saturated shoulders and embankments slump, and runoff cuts gullies where it drops into the basin.

Riprap armors banks, culvert outlets and shorelines against spring runoff.

Timing matters as much as material. Base, driveway and paver work runs from the end of the spring thaw into late fall.

Frozen ground stops compaction through winter, and spring load restrictions slow hauling while the frost comes out.

Winters here are long and severe, with deep ground frost and a hard thaw that heaves gravel drives, approaches and township roads. Frost depth is set by the city or county rather than by a statewide table.
