Gravel and Aggregate Delivery in Clearwater, KS
Kansas Rock Supply handles gravel and aggregate delivery in Clearwater, KS. The working season here is long, and the real limits are wet spring weeks and high summer heat.
AB-3 is the base most Clearwater drives and pads start from. It is the Kansas name for dense-graded crushed limestone base, and it locks up tight once it is moisture-conditioned and rolled.
Materials for Clearwater Projects
Start with the base course. AB-3 carries driveways, parking pads, shed and shop bases and road shoulders.
Crushed rock and fines come graded together, roughly 1 1/2 inch down, so the material binds instead of staying loose.
Where a full AB-3 base is more than the job needs, 1 Inch Minus tops a drive, patches soft spots and builds up shoulders. It is the smaller dense-graded crushed limestone, not a substitute for AB-3.
Surfacing an existing drive is a different job. Driveway Gravel goes over a compacted base, and 3/4" Crushed Stone works for drive surfacing, drainage beds and trench backfill.
Clean washed limestone is sold by inch size in Kansas, so ask for 1 Inch Clean by that name or as clean rock. It goes into French drains, foundation drains, pipe bedding, concrete work and construction entrances.
Ground and Conditions in Clearwater
Across the Arkansas River Lowlands and the south-central sand prairie, the ground is sand, gravel and silt laid down by the Arkansas River, with a sandy loam over the top. Sand drains fast.
That sounds like good news until a surface course with no binding fines sinks straight into it. The water table also sits close under parts of the valley floor, so water has somewhere to go and nowhere to leave.
Wind moves loose sand as soon as the cover is broken. Spring high water scours banks along the rivers in this part of the state, which is where riprap and large river rock earn their place.
Winters are moderate by Kansas standards, but freeze and thaw still moves a drive with no proper base under it. Frost depth is set city by city in Kansas, and the figure adopted for Wichita and Sedgwick County is about 24 inches.
Rain is the other half of the schedule. Sandy ground is back in shape quickly after a wet week, so delivery timing stays flexible through most of the year.
