Class 5 is the Minnesota base course. On bluff country ground, a compacted Class 5 course is what carries a drive.

Materials for Red Wing Projects

Start with the base. Class 5, also called Class 5 gravel or Cl 5, is the standard Minnesota base course for driveways, parking pads and shed and garage bases.

Class 2 is the surfacing class in the same spec, a tighter 3/4 inch crushed aggregate with fines. Yards sell it as Class 2 granite or Class 2 limestone.

Where a drive needs a crushed rock that binds and compacts, Crusher Run keeps the fines in. Minnesota yards sell it by class or by a minus size.

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

Washed stone has the fines taken out. 3/4 Clear Rock goes in drainage beds, trench backfill and construction entrances, and it doubles as foundation rock under basement slabs.

Drainage Rock, usually a 1 1/2 inch clear rock, runs French drains, drywells and downspout runs. RipRap armours shorelines, streambanks and culvert outlets against ice and spring runoff.

Sand and soil finish the job. Mason Sand beds brick and block and fills sandboxes.

Top Soil, which Minnesota calls black dirt, builds lawns and planting beds.

Ground and Conditions in Red Wing

Water moves fast here. Across the Driftless bluff and karst country, rain and snowmelt run off steep slopes and then disappear into sinkholes and fractures instead of soaking in evenly.

Valley floors flood quickly after heavy rain, and rill and gully erosion cuts steep loess slopes. A downspout run aimed at a sinkhole goes straight to groundwater.

That shapes material choice. Clean washed stone sheds water in a drainage bed, while a fines-bearing base like Class 5 binds and compacts under a drive.

Ground is karst, worked by groundwater into sinkholes, springs and caves, with rock outcrops on the bluffs. Soil is thin on the ridge tops and deep in the valleys.

The working season runs from the thaw into late autumn, one of the longer ones in the state. Spring load limits go up on Southeast zone roads in early March and come off in April.

Cold winters bring repeated freeze-thaw, and frost lifts slabs and walks on the thin, silty soils over rock. Plan the base and the drainage before the ground freezes.
