Rip Rap, Stone and Soil Delivery in Langley, AR

Arkansas Rock Supply handles gravel and aggregate delivery in Langley, AR, and the load you need usually starts with SB-2 base. Size it on the calculator before you order.

This is Ouachita Mountains ground, stony loam over sandstone and chert, so water moves fast once it starts downhill.

Ridge ground sheds storm flow onto drives and pads below it. That is why coarse stone for slope, swale and bank protection does so much of the work here.

Materials for Langley Projects

Start with the coarsest stone when you are armoring a slope or a bank. RipRap is broken sandstone, limestone or syenite, and it is what holds a creek bank, a culvert outlet or a ditch check in place.

Large River Rock is the rounded option for dry creek beds and heavier decorative work where a softer look is wanted. It is not angular, so it does not lock together the way rip rap does.

#4 Crushed Stone is heavy drainage and trench bottom stone. It also stabilizes soft ground at a construction entrance.

Move down in size for drainage and drives. #57 Limestone is the washed workhorse for French drains, foundation and pipe drainage, and a clean top over a compacted base.

SB-2 Base is the dense-graded 1 1/2 inch minus crushed stone with the fines left in, and it is the standard base under drives, parking pads, shed pads and pipe bedding.

When a written standard applies, that same material is specified as Class 7 base or Class 7 aggregate base course. Crusher run is the finer dense-graded choice for a drive or pad that needs to bind and compact.

At the fine end, Screenings bed pavers, flagstone and brick and fill the joints. Washed Sand levels and beds under slabs and pools, and Mason Sand goes into brick, block and stone work.

Ground and Conditions in Langley

Work runs year round here, with winter ice and a wet spring as the real limits. Once this rocky ground drains, it compacts well and holds.

Across the Ouachita Mountains, tilted shale and chert beds shed water off the ridges fast and funnel it into narrow valleys. A drive or pad takes concentrated flow arriving from above it, not just the rain that lands on it.

That is why the base matters more than the surface stone. SB-2 base with its fines left in locks up under a roller and gives you something the water cannot lift.

North-facing slopes hold frost longest and thaw wet, which is when a gravel drive ruts most easily. No statewide frost figure is published, so footings are set by the local building official.
