Ground and Conditions in Kingston

Across the Boston Mountains, soils are stony, acid silt loam and clay over flat-lying sandstone and shale. Ridge tops run thin.

Only the foot of a slope carries any real depth. A thin base course shows that fast.

It ravels at the edges, pumps under a tire, and lets the surface stone work loose. The fix is a denser, deeper base that binds when it is compacted, not a heavier top dressing.

Shale beds perch water above the rock, so slopes stay wet and slick. The sandstone above sheds rain straight down the hollow.

A steep gravel drive takes water arriving from uphill, not just the rain that falls on it. Slope length and gradient drive the rest.

Runoff on steep hollow drives cuts ruts and carries surfacing to the bottom. Saturated shale slopes slump after long rain.

Winter ice and mud on steep drives set the limits here. Grading and compaction go best from late spring through fall, once the slopes have dried out.

Cold by Arkansas standards, with ice storms and repeated freeze-thaw on shaded north-facing slopes. Those drives stay frozen hours longer than the valleys below.

No statewide frost depth figure is published. The Arkansas residential code has each jurisdiction set the frost line and requires exterior footings at least 12 inches below undisturbed ground.

Shaded mountain slopes hold frost longest, so ask the county or city building official for the local number.

Materials for Kingston Projects

Fines and screenings do the fine work on this ground. Screenings, also called limestone fines or crusher fines, bed pavers, flagstone and brick, fill the joints, and leave a tight walking surface.

On a sloped path, that tight surface is what keeps a walkway from raveling. Screenings also work as a light top dressing over a compacted base.

Under the path, start with SB-2 Base. This is the standard Arkansas base material: a dense-graded 1 1/2 inch minus crushed stone with the fines left in, so it locks up under a roller.

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

For a drive or pad where a finer dense-graded material is wanted, Crusher Run binds and compacts. Arkansas usually reaches for SB-2 first.

For drainage, #57 Limestone is the workhorse washed size. It goes in French drains, foundation and pipe drainage, and as a clean top over a compacted base.

3/4" Crushed Stone is the same idea with no fines, for drainage beds and drive surfacing. Walkway Gravel covers garden paths and side yards that need a finer, walkable surface than a drive does.
