Class A roadstone is the crushed limestone base course this part of Iowa builds drives and lanes on, and it is where most Klemme projects start.

Materials for Klemme Projects

Base and driveway surfacing come first here. Class A roadstone is 3/4 inch crushed limestone with the fines left in, so it binds and compacts under a drive, a parking pad, a shed base or a farm lane.

Where a lane carries heavy equipment or a soft spot needs a coarser start, 1 inch roadstone goes down under a finer surface course. 1 Inch Roadstone is the same crushed limestone at a larger size.

Topping an existing drive that has thinned out is a job for Driveway Gravel, laid over a compacted roadstone base.

Washed stone is the open graded side of the yard. Water moves straight through it, so it belongs in subdrains, drainage tile backfill, pipe bedding and behind retaining walls.

Clean Rock comes in 1 inch and 1 1/2 inch sizes for that work.

3/8" Crushed Stone is sold around here as washed chips. It goes into seal coat, paver joints, fine drainage and a thin top dressing.

Sand and soil round out a load. Washed Sand beds and levels under slabs and pavers, and Top Soil is the screened black dirt Iowa yards use for lawn repair, grading and bed prep.

Ground and Conditions in Klemme

Klemme sits in Hancock County, on the Des Moines Lobe. This is pothole country, and the drainage network across the lobe is young and inefficient.

Kettles and closed depressions hold water. Much of the ground only drains at all because it is tiled, and snowmelt and spring rain sit on the surface where the ground below is still frozen.

That shapes what a base has to do. Class A roadstone carries its fines so it compacts into a surface that sheds water instead of trapping it, which matters on flat ground that has nowhere to send runoff.

The ground here is thick, compact pebbly loam till of the Dows Formation, with sand and gravel along old meltwater channels and stony, hummocky ground on the moraine ridges.

Erosion on the lobe is less about slope and more about ditch and tile outlet scour, plus washouts where runoff concentrates on the ridges. Clean rock and riprap both answer that kind of water.

Timing matters. Compaction waits for frost to come out and for flat ground to shed its spring water, so base and paver work runs from late spring to the fall freeze.

Winters here are long and cold, and repeated freeze-thaw heaves gravel drives, lanes and field entrances as the ground lets go in spring. Frost depth in this region is commonly 42 inches, and the local building official sets footing depth.
