SB-2 base is the standard Arkansas base material here, a dense-graded 1 1/2 inch minus crushed stone with the fines left in. It locks up under a roller for driveways, parking pads, shed pads and pipe bedding.

Ground and Conditions in Farmington

This is Ozark Plateaus ground: cherty, acid clay loam over limestone and dolostone, with chert gravel through the profile. On side slopes, rock and rubble sit close to the surface.

Water here leaves through the rock rather than across it. Sinkholes, fractured limestone and losing streams take runoff underground fast, while the residual clay filling the joints holds water at the surface after a long rain.

A thin base fails first where that clay sits. The stone works down into soft ground, ruts form, and the drive loses its shape before the surface ever wears out.

The fix is a real compacted base layer of SB-2 over stable, drained ground. Build the pad up out of the wet before the base course goes on, and the surface holds.

Steep hollow slopes and flashy streams scour drive shoulders, culvert outlets and creek banks in heavy spring rain. Base, drive and patio work runs almost all year otherwise.

Winter cold snaps and a wet spring interrupt it, and the late-summer dry spell is the easiest time to get real compaction.

Freezes come in runs from December into February, and shallow freeze-thaw lifts loose gravel and heaves unbound surfaces before spring. For footings, the Arkansas residential code has each jurisdiction set the frost line and requires exterior footings at least 12 inches below undisturbed ground.

Materials for Farmington Projects

Screenings do the fine work on paths and walkways. This is the Arkansas trade name for crusher fines, and the material beds pavers, flagstone and brick, fills joints, and leaves a tight walking surface.

Lay Screenings over a compacted base and you get a path that stays put underfoot instead of rolling under a shoe. Use Walkway Gravel where you want a coarser, walkable garden path or side yard surface.

Underneath, SB-2 Base carries the load. Cities and engineers write the same material into street, sidewalk and parking standards as Class 7 base, or Class 7 aggregate base course, so use that name when you are working to a written spec.

For drainage, #57 Limestone is the washed workhorse: French drains, foundation and pipe drainage, and a clean top over compacted base. 3/4" Crushed Stone handles drainage beds and construction entrances.

For decorative beds and dry creek beds, Arkansas River Rock and Large River Rock give you rounded stone, and RipRap armors banks, slopes and culvert outlets.
