Materials for Mount Carbon Projects

Decorative rock does more here than dress up a bed. On a slope, rounded stone moves water and slows it down, and a dry creek bed built from it gives runoff somewhere to go besides your driveway.

Large River Rock is the big rounded stone for dry creek beds, swale bottoms and heavier decorative work. Set it along the line where water wants to run and let it take the flow off the hill.

River Rock is the smaller rounded stone for beds, borders and the shallower parts of a dry creek bed. It also works as ground cover where grass will not take on a shaded bank.

3/8" Natural Pea Gravel is the small rounded stone for walkways, play areas, patio infill and light drainage. It gives you a walkable surface that stays firm underfoot.

Under all of that, crusher run is the base. For a driveway or parking pad, Crusher Run is the everyday West Virginia drive material, crushed stone with the fines left in, so it locks up and holds a grade on a hillside.

Where the subgrade is soft ground or old fill, Class 1 Base is the heavier base course to build up first.

For a patio or paver walk, Stone Screenings bed the pavers and fill the joints. Mason Sand is the fine sand for brick and block work and for joints between pavers.

Where the job is drainage, #57 Limestone is the washed 1 inch clean stone for French drains, pipe bedding and construction entrances. #8 Limestone is the small washed chip for paver joints, pipe bedding and a dressing over a compacted base.

Ground and Conditions in Mount Carbon

The ground here is steep hillside over sandstone, shale and coal measures, with deep colluvium in the hollows and mine spoil on and below the old workings. Flat ground is scarce, and much of what is flat is fill.

That matters before you order a single load of decorative stone. An under-built base on fill or on soft hillside ground will not hold, no matter what sits on top of it.

Across the Allegheny Plateau coalfields, this is the most landslide-prone ground in the state. Slides cluster on slopes steeper than about 21 degrees, and mine regolith is the most slide-prone material in it.

Unreclaimed workings, timber cutting, road cuts and sidecast fill are the usual triggers.

Water is the other half of it. Narrow hollows funnel rain off long, steep slopes into one creek and one road, so a drive takes runoff gathered from well uphill.

Culverts and ditches decide where that water ends up.

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 not be built on until it drains.

Freeze-thaw runs all winter, and the worst damage to a drive shows up during the spring thaw. Frost depth is set by the county or municipal building official, so confirm the local figure before you set anything in the ground.
