Clean Rock, Stone and Soil Delivery in Bevington, IA

Iowa Rock Supply handles gravel and aggregate delivery in Bevington, IA, and the ground here sets the job. Under the loess mantle on the Southern Iowa Drift Plain, old till and a gummy grey paleosol sit close enough to hold water.

Class A roadstone is the crushed limestone base that carries a drive or pad over ground like that.

Materials for Bevington Projects

Water is the reason most of this ground gets worked. Clay subsoil takes almost nothing in, so it perches, runs off and leaves low spots soft.

Washed stone, French drains, drywells and downspout runs move that water away from a building instead of letting it sit against it.

Washed stone is crushed limestone with the fines washed out, so it is open graded and water moves straight through it. Clean Rock in the 1 inch and 1 1/2 inch sizes is what subdrains, drainage tile backfill and pipe bedding are built from.

It also backfills behind a retaining wall, where trapped water would push.

#57 Stone and #67 Stone are the smaller washed gradations, and Iowa concrete stone is written D57 and D67. Both work in a drainage run and as concrete aggregate.

A drywell or a downspout run wants stone that stays open, not a material that packs tight and holds water in place.

Fines-bearing material has its own job. Class A roadstone keeps the fines in, so it binds and compacts into a base for driveways, parking pads, shed bases and farm lanes.

1 Inch Roadstone is the coarser grade, laid under a finer surface course on a new drive, a soft spot or a lane carrying heavy equipment.

At the fine end, Limestone Screenings bed pavers and flagstone and fill the joints between them. Riprap, sold as revetment stone, armors a stream bank, a culvert outlet, a pond edge or a slope that takes spring runoff.

Ground and Conditions in Bevington

The Southern Iowa Drift Plain gives this area the longest working season in the state, and timing a delivery is mostly about moisture. Clay soil has to dry before anything gets compacted, so a wet spring can push base work back several weeks.

Order when the ground is ready, not before.

This is also Iowa's most eroded landscape. Streams cut deep, hillslopes carry a fine texture of rills, and heavy rain opens gullies and eats at stream banks.

That is why rock goes onto slopes, banks and outlets here in the first place.

Freeze and thaw is milder than the north of the state but still enough to heave gravel drives and lanes every spring. Frost depth in this part of Iowa is commonly 42 inches, and the local building official sets footing depth.

That figure is a footing depth, not a target for a gravel base.
