Ground and Conditions in Le Center

On this ground a thin base course fails first at the edges. Water sits on the tight till, freezes, and lifts whatever sits on top.

That is the pattern across the Southern and western prairie till. Loamy, clayey till carries shale down from the Dakotas under deep black prairie soil, and it does not shed water.

Spring is when it shows. The thaw and early summer thunderstorms are the two stretches when yards and drives are worst, and the ground under a new slab or paver bed is softest.

Fix it with a base that drains and compacts, not with more of the wrong material. Class 5 binds and holds; clear rock lets water pass.

Match the layer to what the ground is doing.

Frost heave hits hardest where water cannot drain away before it freezes. The Minnesota Residential Code footing table sets 3 feet 6 inches for its Zone II counties, and that is a footing depth set by the building official, not a base depth.

Materials for Le Center Projects

Bedding under pavers and flatwork is where the material choice shows. The bed has to compact flat and stay put, or the surface rocks and settles within a season.

Granite Fines are the bedding for pavers, flagstone and patio work, and they compact into a garden path. Minnesota granite fines come from the Crushed Stone quarried in the St.

Cloud belt.

Washed Sand, also sold as concrete sand, beds and levels under slabs and pavers. Mason Sand goes into brick and block work and paver joints.

Class 5 is the standard Minnesota base course. It builds driveways, parking pads, shed and garage bases and road base, and it binds and compacts.

Driveway Gravel tops an existing drive or finishes over a compacted base.

Under a slab or around footings, 3/4 Clear Rock is the clean washed rock. It also forms the gas-permeable layer beneath the passive radon system Minnesota requires in new homes.

How much material will my project need?
