Materials for Hewett Projects

Raising grade and building a pad is the work this ground sets up. Where a hollow has been filled, or a bench cut into a slope, the first job is bringing the level up to something you can build on.

Fill Dirt is bulk fill for raising grade, filling a washout or backfilling behind a wall. It goes down first, and a base course goes on top of it.

Above the fill, Class 1 Base is the heavier base course for drives, parking pads, shop floors and slabs. It is the layer to build up when the subgrade is soft ground or old fill.

Crusher Run, also called crush and run, is the everyday West Virginia base and drive material. The fines stay in, so it locks up tight under a roller and holds a grade on a hillside drive.

For drainage, #57 Limestone is washed 1 inch clean stone for French drains, pipe bedding and construction entrances. #8 Limestone is a small washed chip for paver joints and fine drainage.

Ground and Conditions in Hewett

Across the Allegheny Plateau coalfields, the hillsides are steep and the soil is acid, stony residuum over sandstone, shale and coal measures. Hollows hold deep colluvium, and mine spoil sits on and below the old workings and benches.

That matters because an under-built base fails in the fill, not in the stone. Saturated hillside fill will not compact and should not be built on until it drains.

Across this part of the state, rain off long, steep slopes funnels into one creek and one road, so a drive takes runoff gathered from well uphill. Culverts and ditches decide where that water ends up.

This is also the most landslide-prone ground in the state. Mine regolith is the most slide-prone material, and shale and siltstone units are the most susceptible rock.

Creek banks scour hard in a flash rise.

Work runs most of the year here, held up by long wet spells rather than by cold. Repeated freeze-thaw all winter means the worst damage to a drive shows up during the spring thaw.

Questions from Hewett Buyers

What is the best base under pavers in Hewett?

Build the base course first with Class 1 Base where the subgrade is soft ground or old fill, then bring the surface tighter with crusher run. Bed the pavers themselves in stone screenings, which is crusher fines sold under several names in West Virginia.

A clean open stone will not lock up into a base, so keep the fines-bearing material for the layers that need to hold.
