Walkway Gravel for Pathways in Scott, AR

Arkansas Rock Supply provides gravel and aggregate delivery in Scott, AR, and the working season here runs all year. Wet winter and spring ground is the real constraint on a project.

That timing shapes what you order. SB-2 base and washed stone go down best in the midsummer dry spell, when the clay shrinks and cracks and the ground finally takes a truck.

Ground and Conditions in Scott

Scott sits on the Mississippi Alluvial Plain, where the ground is deep alluvial silt loam, silty clay and heavy clay. Flat ground, a high water table and clay that barely takes water mean rain stands where it falls.

A thin base course fails fast on that ground. The clay holds moisture, the stone works down into the soft subgrade, and the surface ruts under a loaded truck with no frost involved at all.

The fix is a proper base depth and a drainage layer, not a thicker layer of the same thing. Fill dirt raises a low pad before any base course goes on.

SB-2 base then locks up under a roller because the fines are left in.

Work runs all year here, but wet winter and spring ground is the real constraint. The midsummer dry spell that shrinks and cracks the clay is the best window for base work.

Materials for Scott Projects

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

Under a paver path, SB-2 base carries the load. It 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 their standards as Class 7 base.

For a path that needs to drain, 3/4 inch clean limestone has no fines and lets water through. Natural Pea Gravel suits walkways and dog runs, and Arkansas yards usually get it in brown or beige.

Washed sand beds and levels under slabs and pools. Mason sand serves brick, block and stone work and paver joints.

Topsoil and shredded mulch finish the beds and tree rings around a new path.
