Materials for Marine on St. Croix Projects

Raising grade and building pads is the work this ground asks for. Low spots, garage slabs and shed bases all start with fill and a compacted sub-base under them.

Start with Fill Dirt to raise grade and backfill. It goes down first, before any base course.

Cap it with Class 5. Class 5 keeps its fines and compacts into a firm, tight surface for driveways, parking pads and road base.

For a driveway, top the compacted base with Driveway Gravel, or use Class 2, the 3/4 inch crushed surfacing class in the same spec. For a patio or paver bed, Granite Fines bed the pavers and compact into a tight setting layer.

For drainage, Drainage Rock fills French drains, drywells and footing drains. It is clear rock, washed with the fines taken out, so water moves through it.

Ground and Conditions in Marine on St. Croix

Across the Twin Cities metro, several different grounds sit inside one short drive. Sandy terraces along the rivers take water fast, while till plains drain slowly and hold it.

On a bluff or a graded lot, that water has somewhere to go, and it takes soil with it. Gully cutting on fresh grade and streambank scour after heavy rain are the results.

That is why the sub-base matters more than the surface. A clay loam subgrade under a thin base holds water, and repeated freeze-thaw heaves drives, walks and slabs.

Frost depth for the Zone II counties in the Minnesota Residential Code footing table is 3 feet 6 inches. That figure is a footing depth set by the building official, not a gravel depth.

The working season here is the longest in the state, running from the spring thaw into late autumn. Spring load limits go up on Metro zone roads in early March and come off in mid-April, so plan heavy deliveries around that window.
