Class A roadstone is the crushed limestone base this part of Iowa builds on.

West of the bluff line the ground is flat, sandy and silty river bottom. That is why so much of the work here is moving water instead of moving dirt.

Materials for Pisgah Projects

Washed stone does the water work. Clean Rock, also called clean stone, is crushed limestone washed and open graded so water runs straight through.

It goes in French drains, drywells, downspout runs and drainage tile backfill.

The size you pick sets what the drain can handle. #57 Stone backfills a subdrain and beds a pipe.

#4 Crushed Stone is the coarser grade for trench bottoms and heavy drainage. #8 Crushed Stone and #89 Crushed Stone are the small washed sizes for tight bedding and paver joints.

When a drain needs a surface over it, roadstone takes the traffic. Class A roadstone is 3/4 inch crushed limestone with the fines left in, so it binds and compacts.

Use it under driveways, parking pads, shed bases and farm lanes.

Finishing materials come in finer sizes. Limestone Screenings, also called screenings, bed pavers and flagstone, fill joints and top dress a compacted roadstone base.

Mason Sand and Washed Sand handle mortar and leveling under slabs. Black dirt, sold as screened topsoil, covers lawn repair and bed prep.

Ground and Conditions in Pisgah

The Loess Hills and the Missouri River valley give this part of Iowa two different problems. On the hills, wind blown silt runs more than 60 feet deep in places and forms narrow ridges that shed water fast down steep gullies.

On the bottoms, flat ground sits over a high water table. That is why so many drives here get built up on rock before anything else goes on them.

Loess erodes hard. It stands in near vertical faces when dry, cuts deep gullies under runoff, and slides once it is saturated.

Timed right, hill work waits for the silt to dry and bottomland work waits out the spring rise.

Both run from the thaw into late fall. Cold winters bring repeated freeze-thaw that heaves drives and loosens the faces of cuts as the ground thaws.

Where footings are set, the local building official sets the depth.

What gravel is best for a driveway in Pisgah?

Class A roadstone is the base for a new driveway or lane. It is 3/4 inch crushed limestone with the fines left in, so it binds and compacts.
