Materials for Villisca Projects

Grading and bed prep come first on most ground here. Screened black dirt rebuilds a lawn after trenching or a scrape, and garden mix goes into raised beds and vegetable plots.

Clay fill dirt raises low ground and backfills before any roadstone course goes down.

Base material follows. Class A Roadstone is the 3/4 inch crushed limestone base course with the fines left in, and it binds and compacts under drives, parking pads and shed bases.

1 Inch Roadstone is the coarser grade for a new drive or a lane that carries heavy equipment.

Washed stone moves water. Clean Rock is open graded, so it backfills subdrains, drainage tile and retaining walls without trapping water.

Limestone Screenings bed pavers and flagstone and fill the joints.

Sand and decorative round out a load. Mason Sand mixes brick and block mortar.

River Rock and 3/8" Natural Pea Gravel dress beds, borders and walkways.

Ground and Conditions in Villisca

Rain, snowmelt and spring storms drive everything here. Across the Southern Iowa Drift Plain, old pre-Illinoian till sits under a loess mantle, and the Yarmouth-Sangamon paleosol is a thick grey clay that water will not move through.

So water perches, runs off and leaves drives soft at the bottom of a grade. Spring rain on saturated clay is the worst of it, and a wet spring pushes base work back several weeks because clay has to dry before anything gets compacted.

This is the state's most eroded landscape. Streams cut deep, hillslopes carry rills, and gully and stream bank erosion after heavy rain is why rock goes in on slopes and outlets.

Riprap armors banks and culvert outlets, and clean rock gives water a path down.

Freeze-thaw heaves gravel drives and lanes every spring in this part of Iowa. Frost depth is commonly 42 inches, and the local building official sets footing depth.
