What is the difference between crushed stone and Natural Pea Gravel?

Crushed stone has angular, broken faces that lock together and pack hard. Natural Pea Gravel is rounded and mostly uncrushed, so it stays loose underfoot. Use crushed stone like #53 for a base that carries weight. Use Natural Pea Gravel for walkways, play areas and light drainage.

Should I order material by the ton or by the yard?

Either works, because both measure the same pile. Order by the ton when you know the weight your truck or trailer can carry. Order by the yard when you are working from a volume, such as area times depth. Enter the measurements and the calculator converts them.

Base stone

#53 stone is the standard Indiana base. Order it for driveways, parking pads, shed bases and base under pavers and slabs.

#73 stone is a finer dense graded stone with fines. Use it to top and resurface drives, parking areas and shoulders where you want a tight, smooth-packing surface.

Washed stone

Washed sizes drain. They carry water instead of holding it.

3/4 inch crushed stone for drainage beds, drive surfacing and construction entrances.
#57 stone for drainage, French drains and concrete aggregate.
#8 stone for drainage, underdrains, pipe bedding and driveway topping.
Drain rock for French drains, foundation drains and downspout runs.
Rip rap for stream bank, ditch, culvert outlet and shoreline armoring.

Sand, soil and decorative stone

Ground Conditions Across Posey County

Water drives every choice here. Rain, snowmelt and river crests decide where material goes and how deep.

Low valley bottoms and old lake-bed flats drain slowly and flood when the Wabash, White, Patoka or Ohio rivers run high. On those sites, plan a drainage layer of clean stone and keep the base above it.

Many upland loess soils have a fragipan that holds water near the surface in wet seasons. That softens the subgrade, so compact #53 stone in lifts as a thin layer and check it before you pave.

Bare loess washes away fast once its cover is stripped. River and ditch banks cut during floods, so armor them with rip rap. In places, old underground coal mines can cause the ground to settle.

Winter and spring are the high-water months on the river bottoms. Build low sites from late spring through fall once water drops and the silt dries out.

Winters are milder than in northern Indiana but still bring repeated freeze-thaw that heaves gravel drives and softens wet, silty subgrades. Frost depth is shallower than up north, and the county or city building department sets the exact footing depth. Do not assume a northern figure.

Choosing the Right Material

Ground shifts across the county line, and the right material shifts with it. Compare before you order.

Vanderburgh County sits in Southwest Indiana, in the same Southwest Wabash and Ohio lowlands ground zone. Its ground is similar to Posey's: flat river valleys and old lake-bed flats of silt and clay, low loess-covered hills, and sandy dune ridges. Expect the same #53 stone base with a clean drainage layer under it.

Gibson County shares that ground zone too, so the ground is similar. There the typical projects lean the same way, with base and drainage doing the work.

Where ground is similar next door, the materials are similar as well. Match the base to the water and the load, not to the county name.
