Start with AB-3, the Kansas name for dense-graded crushed limestone base. It builds driveways, parking pads and shop bases on the silty loess and sandy ground of the High Plains.
Materials for Collyer Projects
AB-3 is the base material for drives, pads and shoulders. It is crushed limestone with the fines left in, graded roughly 1 1/2 inch down, and it locks up tight when it is moisture-conditioned and rolled.
1 inch minus, also called crusher run, is the smaller dense-graded stone. Use it to top a drive, patch a soft spot or build up a shoulder where a full AB-3 base is more than the job needs.
1 inch clean, sold locally as #57 stone or clean rock, is washed limestone with the fines screened out. It goes in French drains, foundation drains, pipe bedding and construction entrances.
Screenings are the crusher fines left after limestone is screened. They bed pavers and flagstone, level under flatwork and fill paver joints.
For sand, Washed Sand beds and levels under slabs and pavers and mixes into concrete. Mason Sand suits brick and block work, paver joints, sandboxes and volleyball courts.
On the soil side, Top Soil starts new lawns and levels beds over heavy clay or thin rocky ground. Fill Dirt raises grade and builds up low spots before a base course goes down.
For decorative work, Kansas River Rock covers beds and borders and shapes dry creek beds. RipRap armours pond banks, ditch lines and culvert outlets against fast runoff.
Ground and Conditions in Collyer
This part of the state sees only about 15 to 25 inches of rain a year. It arrives in heavy summer storms on tight silt and caliche that will not take it, so water runs to the low spots and playas.
That matters for what sits under a drive or a pad. A dense-graded base like AB-3 is built to shed that water and hold its shape.
Wind is the other force here, and it is the main agent of erosion across the High Plains. Bare silt and loose sand blow, drifting across drives and stripping unbound surfaces.
Cloudbursts cut steep-sided draws through the same ground. RipRap on a bank or ditch line holds against that flash runoff where loose material will not.
Ground across the High Plains is silty loess and sandy soil over the Ogallala Formation of sand, gravel and cemented beds. Locals call the cemented Ogallala mortar bed, and hard caliche layers sit close to the surface in places.
The working season runs long. The difficulty is getting moisture into material and holding it there long enough to compact, rather than waiting for the ground to dry out.
Winters are the coldest, windiest and driest in Kansas, with hard freezes and rapid thaws. Frost goes deeper here than in south-central Kansas, and footing depth is set by the local building official rather than by a statewide figure.
