Materials for Kanawha Falls Projects

Base and driveway surfacing carry most of the work on this ground. Class 1 base is the heavier course under drives, parking pads, shop floors and slabs, and the layer to build up when the subgrade is soft or old fill.

Class 2 base is the finer crusher run class, used where a drive or pad wants a tighter surface, and as a top course over a Class 1 base.

Crusher run is the everyday base and drive material, sold by top size at 3/4 inch, 1-1/2 inch and coarser. Crusher Run takes a grade and holds it on a hillside drive.

Class 1 Base goes in first where the ground is soft. Driveway Gravel surfaces an existing drive or tops a compacted base on a long hollow run.

Clean washed stone handles water. #57 Limestone is the 1 inch clean stone for drainage, French drains, pipe bedding and construction entrances.

#8 Limestone is a small washed chip, roughly 3/8 inch down to 1/4 inch, for paver joints, pipe bedding and fine drainage. Drain Rock covers French drains, drywells, foundation drains and downspout runs.

Sand, soil and decorative rock round out the order. Mason Sand beds brick and block and fills paver joints.

Washed Sand levels and beds under slabs and pavers. Top Soil builds a lawn over thin, stony hillside ground.

River Rock dresses beds, borders and dry creek beds.

Bank and slope work takes Riprap, the angular armour for creek and hollow banks, culvert outlets and channel work after a washout. Railroad Ballast handles track beds, hard standing and severe drainage.

Ground and Conditions in Kanawha Falls

Rain, snowmelt and storms off long, steep slopes funnel into one creek and one road. A drive here takes runoff gathered from well uphill, so culverts and ditches decide how the surface holds up.

Old mine workings add their own discharges in the coalfields.

The ground is acid, stony residuum over sandstone, shale and coal measures, with deep colluvium in the hollows and narrow alluvial strips along the creek bottoms. Flat ground is scarce, and much of what is flat is fill.

Mine spoil and regolith sit on and below the old benches.

This is slide-prone ground across the Allegheny Plateau coalfields. Unreclaimed workings, timber cutting, road cuts and sidecast fill are the usual triggers, and creek banks scour hard in a flash rise.

That is why a soft or filled subgrade wants a heavier base course before any surface stone goes down.

Work runs most of the year, held up by long wet spells rather than by cold. Saturated hillside fill will not compact, so it should drain before anything is built on it.

Spring thaw is when the worst damage to a drive shows up.
