Bulk Gravel Delivery to Camp, AR

Gravel and aggregate delivery in Camp, AR runs almost all year, and the late summer dry spell is the easiest window to get real compaction. Arkansas Rock Supply delivers bulk material to Fulton County properties.

Start with SB-2 base if you are building a drive, a parking pad or a shed pad. The local ground decides how much prep the job needs before anything goes down.

Ground and Conditions in Camp

Camp sits on the Ozark Plateaus, where the soil is a cherty, acid clay loam over limestone and dolostone. Chert gravel runs right through the profile, and rock or rubble sits close to the surface on side slopes.

That shallow rock is the reason a thin base fails here. Water leaves through the rock rather than across it, so sinkholes, fractured limestone and losing streams take runoff underground fast.

The residual clay filling the joints still holds water at the surface after a long rain. A pad or drive on that ground needs a base that locks up and sheds water instead of pumping.

Steep hollow slopes and flashy streams scour drive shoulders, culvert outlets and creek banks in heavy spring rain. Winter cold snaps and a wet spring interrupt the working season.

Materials for Camp Projects

Bedding under pavers and flatwork is where the material choice shows first. A paver laid on the wrong bed rocks at the corner within a season, and a slab poured over an uneven bed cracks along the same line.

Screenings, also called limestone fines or crusher fines, are the Arkansas bedding material for pavers, flagstone and brick. They compact to a tight walking surface and fill the joints between units.

SB-2 base is the dense-graded 1 1/2 inch minus crushed stone with the fines left in, so it locks up under a roller. It carries the drive, parking pad or building pad that the bedding sits on.

Where a written standard applies, that same material is specified as Class 7 base or Class 7 aggregate base course. Arkansas cities and engineers write that name into their street, sidewalk and parking standards.

Washed sand, also called concrete sand or river sand, beds and levels under slabs and pools. Mason sand goes into brick, block and stone work and paver joints.

#57 limestone is the washed workhorse for French drains, foundation and pipe drainage and a clean top over a compacted base. 3/4 inch clean limestone suits drainage beds and drive surfacing where no fines are wanted.

Camp sits in Fulton County, and delivery covers the county, including Salem, Mammoth Spring, Viola, Bexar and Gepp. Rural and county-road properties get the same bulk delivery as anything closer in.
