Materials for Wallace Projects

Fill dirt is the first order for raising grade. Use it to build up a low spot, fill a washout or backfill behind a wall, then cap it with a base course.

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

It is sold as the coarser of the two crusher run classes.

Class 2 base is the finer crusher run class. It gives a tighter surface than the coarse base and works as a top course over a Class 1 base.

For a driveway, crusher run builds the base and driveway gravel surfaces an existing drive or tops a compacted base. For a patio, washed sand levels and beds under slabs and pavers, and stone screenings bed the pavers and fill the joints.

For a drain, #57 limestone is washed 1 inch clean stone for French drains, pipe bedding and construction entrances. #4 crushed stone is coarse 1-1/2 inch clean stone for trench bottoms and heavy drainage.

Ground and Conditions in Wallace

This part of West Virginia is rolling to steep dissected hill country on shale, siltstone and sandstone. Slopes carry acid stony residuum, hollows collect colluvium, and the narrow bottoms hold alluvial ground.

That soil sheds water fast on a grade and holds it in the hollows. An under-built base shows it first: the fill pumps, the surface ruts, and the grade will not hold.

Across the North central plateau and western hills, hill runoff runs into narrow bottoms, and spring rain and snowmelt land on saturated clay-rich soil. This ground cannot be compacted while it is saturated, so a long wet spell is usually what stops a base job, not frost.

Slope failure is a real risk in this region, and creek bank scour after heavy rain does the rest. Riprap armours a bank, a culvert outlet or a slipping fill, and clean stone in a drainage layer moves water away from a base.

Work runs from spring into late fall. Cold winters bring repeated freeze-thaw, and spring thaw is when a gravel drive shows what its base is worth.

Frost depth is set by each jurisdiction, so confirm the figure for Wallace with the local official.
