Bulk Material Delivery in Ola, AR

Arkansas Rock Supply handles gravel and aggregate delivery in Ola, AR. The base material here goes by its local name: SB-2 base, a dense-graded 1 1/2 inch minus crushed stone with the fines left in.

It locks up under a roller, which is why it works under drives, parking pads and shed pads. The same stone is written into local street and sidewalk standards as Class 7 base.

Materials for Ola Projects

Slope, swale and bank protection starts with coarse stone. Water moving off bare valley clay needs something heavy enough to stay put, and rounded material will not hold a bank.

RipRap is the first size to reach for on bank and slope armoring. It also goes at culvert outlets and ditch checks where flow arrives fast.

Large River Rock suits dry creek beds and heavier decorative work. It is a rounded stone, so use it where the look matters more than the armoring.

#4 Crushed Stone is an angular stone for heavy drainage, trench bottoms and stabilizing soft ground. It is also used at construction entrances.

#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 a washed stone with no fines. Use it in drainage beds, construction entrances and drive surfacing.

Down at the fine end, Screenings bed pavers, flagstone and brick. They also fill joints and give a tight walking surface.

For a compacted base under any of it, SB-2 Base is the Arkansas standard. Crusher Run is a finer dense-graded option where a tighter bind is wanted.

Bulk delivery covers Ola and the rest of Yell County, including Dardanelle, Danville, Havana, Belleville and Plainview. A dump truck tips the load in one pile on site.

Ground and Conditions in Ola

Across the Arkansas River Valley, work runs nearly all year. A wet late winter and spring is the real limit, and summer heat can dry a surface before it can be rolled.

Bottomland here sits flat with a high water table near the river. Clay subsoils let go of water slowly, and backwater after heavy rain upstream keeps ground soft.

That wet clay does more damage to a base than cold does. Frost is shallow in this part of the state, but a soft subgrade still pumps under traffic all winter.

Erosion follows the same pattern. Bank scour and flood flow work on the creeks and lakes, and spring thunderstorms sheet water off bare valley clay.

Plan a delivery for a dry stretch where you can. A base course placed over ground that is still holding water will not stay put.
