What is crushed base and what is it used for in Johnson County?

Crushed base is crushed stone graded to a set specification. It goes under drives, shop and shed pads, parking areas and county-style lanes. Ordered here as crushed base, and usually talked about by top size, as 3/4 minus.

How deep should a gravel driveway base be in Johnson County?

Depth depends on your subgrade, your traffic and how the water moves off the site. Gumbo clay that heaves at thaw behaves differently from cobbly gravel ground, so no single figure covers the county. The building department sets footing depth, and your own site sets everything above it.

How much gravel do I need for my project?

Order by the ton or by the yard, whichever suits the job. Each product page has a calculator that takes your project numbers and returns a quantity. Use it before you order so the load matches the area you are covering.

Johnson County Crushed Base and Gravel Delivery, WY

Wyoming Rock Supply brings gravel, stone and aggregate delivery in Johnson County, WY to Buffalo, Kaycee and the ground between. Start with crushed base, the material that carries drives, shop pads and lanes here.

Water decides what you need. Gumbo clay sheds a cloudburst instead of soaking it in, so a pad or lane has to hold its shape when the runoff comes hard.

That is a stone choice before it is anything else.

Materials Delivered in Johnson County

Wyoming specifies base material as crushed base.

The gradings are lettered J, GR, L, K and W.

Grading W is the common one-inch-top-size base. Grading GR is the 3/4 inch gradation, which is why crushed base is talked about here as 3/4 minus.

City and county work is usually written against Section 02190.

Ground Conditions Across Johnson County

The season is short and it starts late. Wet gumbo has to dry before it will compact, which pushes the spring end back further.

Plan a delivery around that window, not against it.

Bentonitic clay sheds water rather than taking it in. Snowmelt sits on frozen subgrade, and clay heaves and pumps at thaw.

That is why so much work here starts by digging the clay out.

Wind moves across open basin ground and cuts gullies and rills in shale badlands and coulees. Riprap on a culvert outlet or a slope face answers that.

So does a clean, open-graded stone in a drain.

Across the Powder River Basin, sound natural aggregate is scarce enough that scoria is used as sub-base and surfacing where nothing better is close. Frost depth is set by the local building department.

Choosing the Right Material

Campbell County and Sheridan County sit on the same Powder River Basin ground as Johnson County. Same gumbo clay, same clinker ridges, same scarce sound aggregate.

The base and drainage choice does not change from county line to county line.

Natrona County spans more than one zone, taking in Casper, the North Platte and the Casper Arch. Ground that changes that much changes what a base has to do.

Here, crushed base handles the structural work. Pit run fills deep and raises grade under it.

Washed rock drains. Scoria surfaces a path.

Match the stone to the job.
