ASTM #57 STONE
A standardized aggregate classification defined by the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM). Carefully graded stone falls within the defined size range of 1 inch to 2.5 inches in diameter.
-
CONCRETE MIX
Can be incorporated to enhance structural strength and stability, especially in larger projects like bridges and retaining walls. -
GARDENING
Offers both functionality and aesthetic appeal in projects such as retaining walls, decorative borders, and hardscape features.
EROSION CONTROL
Angularity and weight make it ideal for stabilizing slopes, embankments, and areas prone to erosion, safeguarding against soil loss. -
DRAINAGE SYSTEMS
Highly effective in drainage applications, including French drains, septic systems, and stormwater management. Size and angular shape promote efficient water runoff and prevent soil erosion.
LARGE DRAINAGE SYSTEMS
Helps manage significant volumes of water runoff in large-scale drainage systems and culvert installations.
ROAD BASE
Size and compaction properties provide a stable foundation for pavement construction.
RAILROAD BALLAST
Delivers essential support and stability for railway tracks.
KEY USES
The adherence to ASTM standards ensures consistent size and quality. Trusted suppliers should be consulted to ensure size and quality align with specific project requirements.
