This part of Pulaski County sits on the Central Arkansas fall line, where gravelly clay loam and sandy coastal-plain ground meet. That mix decides what a path needs underneath it.

Ground and Conditions in Jacksonville

Tight clay subsoils and flat terraces hold water across the Central Arkansas fall line. Runoff coming off higher ground concentrates where the slope flattens out, and a lot of it lands on small lots.

A thin base fails first on ground like that. It pumps, rutts and migrates into the mud, and the surface stone disappears into the subgrade.

Bare clay on a newly cut lot scours fast in a summer storm. Screenings and compacted base give water a surface to move across instead of a slope to cut into.

Work here runs all year. Winter rain on clay and midsummer heat set the limits, not frozen ground, and wet clay softens badly under traffic through the winter.

Materials for Jacksonville Projects

For paths, walkways and side yards, fines and screenings do the real work. Screenings, also called limestone fines or crusher fines, bed pavers and flagstone and fill the joints between them.

Screenings also give you a tight walking surface on their own. They bind and pack down where a coarser stone stays loose, which is why they suit a garden path better than an open stone.

For the base under all of it, SB-2 base is the standard Arkansas material. It is a dense-graded 1 1/2 inch minus crushed stone with the fines left in, so it locks up under a roller on a drive, a parking pad, a shed pad or pipe bedding.

When you are building to a written standard, the same material shows up as Class 7 base, or Class 7 aggregate base course, the name Arkansas cities and engineers write into street, sidewalk and parking specs.

Under pavers the layers stack in a set order. SB-2 base goes down first, then a bedding layer of Screenings, then the pavers with joints swept full.

For drainage, #57 Limestone is the washed workhorse, also called 57 rock or clean rock. It handles French drains, foundation and pipe drainage and a clean top over a compacted base.

3/4" Crushed Stone, or 3/4 clean, goes into drainage beds and construction entrances. SB-2 Base and Walkway Gravel cover the base and surfacing side of the same job.

Decorative work takes rounded stone. 3/8" Natural Pea Gravel suits walkways, play areas and dog runs, and river gravel or creek gravel handles dry creek beds and borders.
