Gravel and Aggregate Delivery in Harriet, AR

Gravel and aggregate delivery in Harriet, AR runs on the season. Winter ice and mud set the limits on steep drives here, and grading and compaction go best from late spring through fall, once the slopes have dried out.

Arkansas Rock Supply sells SB-2 base, washed stone, sand and soil in bulk. You order online and a truck tips the load on site.

Materials for Harriet Projects

Base and driveway surfacing come first on a Boston Mountains property. 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 goes under drives, parking pads, shed and building pads and pipe bedding.

When a job is written to a spec, Class 7 base is the same material under the name Arkansas cities and engineers use in street, sidewalk and parking standards. Crusher run is a finer dense-graded option for drives and pads that bind and compact.

Washed stone handles water. #57 Limestone is the workhorse clean size for French drains, foundation and pipe drainage and concrete aggregate.

3/4" Crushed Stone is a washed stone with no fines, used in drainage beds, construction entrances and drive surfacing.

Sand beds and levels. Washed Sand goes under slabs and pools, and Mason Sand is for brick, block and stone work and paver joints.

Top Soil covers lawns, grading and bed prep, and it comes screened.

Decorative stone finishes the yard. Arkansas River Rock fills beds, borders and dry creek beds, and 3/8" Natural Pea Gravel works on walkways, play areas and dog runs.

Ground and Conditions in Harriet

Across the Boston Mountains, shale beds perch water above the rock. Slopes stay wet and slick while the sandstone above sheds rain straight down the hollow.

That means a steep gravel drive takes water arriving from uphill, not just the rain that falls on it. Plan the drainage before the surfacing goes down.

Slope length and gradient drive erosion here. Runoff on a steep hollow drive cuts ruts and carries surfacing to the bottom, and saturated shale slopes slump after long rain.

Soils in this part of the state are stony, acid silt loam and clay over flat-lying sandstone and shale. Rock benches, ledges and loose colluvium sit on the steep slopes, and ridge soils are thin.

Only the foot of a slope carries any depth.

Cold by Arkansas standards, with ice storms and repeated freeze-thaw on shaded north-facing slopes and drives. Frost depth has no statewide figure.

The Arkansas residential code has each jurisdiction set the frost line and requires exterior footings at least 12 inches below undisturbed ground. Ask the Searcy County building official for the local number.
