Walkway Gravel for Pathways in Hoxie, AR

Arkansas Rock Supply brings gravel and aggregate delivery in Hoxie, AR to whatever you are building, from a garden path to a driveway pad. If the job needs a compacted base, that means SB-2 base, the dense graded crushed stone this part of Arkansas builds on.

The ground you are working over is Delta ground: deep silt loam and heavy clay that holds water after a rain. That shapes what goes under a path and what goes on top of it.

Ground and Conditions in Hoxie

Across the Mississippi Alluvial Plain the ground is flat and the water table sits high. The clay takes water slowly, so rain stands where it falls and field ditches and bayous drain slowly.

A thin base over that ground shows its failure fast. The stone punches down into soft clay, the edges spread, and the surface ruts under a truck.

The fix is a base course with enough fines left in it to bind and compact into a mat that spreads the load.

That is what SB-2 base is for. It is a dense graded 1 1/2 inch minus crushed stone with the fines left in, and it locks up under a roller.

Cities and engineers write the same material into street, sidewalk and parking standards as Class 7 base, so it is the name to use when you are working to a written spec.

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.

Frost is shallow and mild winters are short, but saturated clay will let a loaded truck rut a drive deeply with no frost involved at all.

Materials for Hoxie Projects

Paths and walkways are where fines and screenings do their best work. Screenings, which this market also calls limestone fines, crusher fines or stone screenings, are the Arkansas trade name for crusher fines.

They bed pavers, flagstone and brick, fill the joints, and leave a tight walking surface that stays put underfoot.

For a path that stays loose and walkable, Walkway Gravel is a finer surface than a drive takes. Under it, SB-2 Base gives you the compacted layer that keeps the path from sinking into wet clay.

Where a path has to shed water rather than hold it, washed stone with no fines is the answer. #57 Limestone handles French drains, foundation and pipe drainage, and a clean top over a compacted base.

3/4" Crushed Stone is the same idea for drainage beds and drive surfacing.

Decorative work leans on rounded stone. 3/8" Natural Pea Gravel suits walkways, play areas, dog runs and drainage, and Arkansas yards usually get it in brown or beige.

Arkansas River Rock, also called river gravel or creek gravel, goes into decorative beds, borders, dry creek beds and splash pads.
