Gravel and Aggregate Delivery in Marmaduke, AR

If you are building a driveway, a parking pad or a shed pad in Marmaduke, the job starts with SB-2 base. Arkansas Rock Supply delivers gravel and aggregate to homes, farms and job sites in Greene County.

This is Delta ground, so the material under your project matters as much as the material on top of it.

Materials for Marmaduke Projects

SB-2 base is the standard Arkansas base stone, and it is where most drives and pads begin here. It is a dense-graded 1 1/2 inch minus crushed stone with the fines left in, so it locks up under a roller.

If you are building to a written standard, that same material is often specified as Class 7 base. Contractors working to a set of plans will see it written that way.

Crusher run does the same work in a finer, dense-graded form. It binds and compacts, and it suits drives and pads where a tighter material is wanted.

Once the base is in, the washed sizes handle water. #57 limestone goes into French drains, foundation drains and pipe bedding, and it works as a clean top over a compacted base.

3/4 inch clean limestone does the same job in drainage beds and on construction entrances.

Sand and soil finish the site. Washed sand beds and levels under slabs and pools, and mason sand sets brick, block and stone.

Screened topsoil dresses lawns and beds over Delta clay.

For decorative work, Natural Pea Gravel and river gravel both come out of Arkansas river deposits. Natural Pea Gravel suits walkways, dog runs and play areas, while river gravel handles beds, borders and dry creek beds.

Ground and Conditions in Marmaduke

Marmaduke sits on the Mississippi Alluvial Plain, and the ground here is deep alluvial silt loam and heavy clay. This is the buckshot and gumbo ground the Delta is known for, and it barely takes water.

Ground this flat drains slowly. Rain stands where it falls, field ditches and bayous move water at a crawl, and backwater can hold for days after a storm.

A driveway or pad that does not shed water will sit in it.

That is why the base matters more than the surface here. SB-2 base gives you a compacted layer that carries a truck without rutting out, and washed stone under a drain gives the water somewhere to go.

Work runs all year in this part of Arkansas. Wet winter and spring ground is the real constraint, and the midsummer dry spell, when the clay shrinks and cracks, is the best window for base work.

Frost is shallow across the Delta, so winter damage here usually comes from saturated clay rather than from freezing. A loaded truck will rut a soft drive deeply with no frost involved at all.
