- Angular crushed stone
Water management matters on Iowa ground that can hold moisture through freeze-thaw weather, but this material is not intended to create open drainage. Its fines help it settle into a firmer mass than open-graded stone, making it better suited to close-fitting hardscape areas than to a drainage layer.
#89 Crushed Stone has angular particles that lock together when placed in confined spaces. It can be worked between pavers or used as bedding beneath flagstone, and it also fits chip-seal surfaces and concrete mixes that need a tightly compacted aggregate. For Iowa conditions, place it only after the area has been prepared, then compact it thoroughly so the finish stays firm through seasonal ground movement.
