Materials for Bono Projects

Flat Delta ground and heavy clay mean grade comes first. Fill dirt raises low spots and builds a pad up out of the wet before any base course goes down.

On top of that pad, SB-2 base is the dense-graded 1 1/2 inch minus crushed stone with the fines left in, and it locks up under a roller. When a written standard governs the job, the same material is specified as Class 7 base.

For a driveway, build on fill and SB-2 base, then surface with driveway gravel if you want a top course. For a patio, screenings bed the pavers and fill the joints.

For a drain, #57 limestone is the washed size with no fines, so water moves through it. Around a foundation or a downspout run, that clean stone is what keeps the trench open.

Sand and soil round out a job. Washed sand beds and levels under slabs, and mason sand goes into brick, block and paver joints.

Ground and Conditions in Bono

The Mississippi Alluvial Plain is deep alluvial silt loam, silty clay and heavy clay, the buckshot and gumbo ground the Delta is known for. Under a drive or a pad, that clay holds water and moves when it is wet.

Ground here is flat, the water table is high, and the clay barely takes water. Rain stands where it falls, and ditches and bayous drain slowly, so an under-built base pumps and ruts instead of holding.

That is the argument for fill and a proper base depth rather than a thin layer of stone over bare clay. It is also why wet ground, not frost, is the winter problem: a loaded truck ruts a drive deeply with no frost involved.

Work runs all year here. Wet winter and spring ground is the real constraint, and the midsummer dry spell that shrinks and cracks the clay is the best window for base work.

Questions About Material in Bono

What is the best base under pavers in Bono?

Screenings, the Arkansas trade name for crusher fines, are what bed pavers, flagstone and brick here. They pack tight and give you a level surface to set into.

Under the screenings, SB-2 base carries the load, and on this clay ground a fill layer goes under that to get the pad up out of the wet.
