Materials for Big Creek Projects

Decorative rock does a lot of the finish work on a yard here. It covers bare ground, edges beds and holds a dry creek bed together where water runs through a low spot.

River rock is the rounded stone for decorative beds, borders and dry creek beds. Large river rock is the heavier grade for dry creek beds, drainage swales and bank work.

Both are decorative stone, not a compacting base.

Natural Pea Gravel is rounded chert washed out of the pit gravels, and it suits walkways, play areas and decorative beds. It is a loose surface, so it stays where it is placed rather than binding into a crust.

Shredded mulch goes on beds and tree rings. It holds moisture and keeps soil in place on slopes through heavy summer rain.

For the structural side, 610 limestone is the compacting base under a drive, a parking pad, a shed pad or a patio. Clay gravel is pit-run material with enough clay and fines to bind and pack, and it has long been the Mississippi drive and farm-road surface over soft ground.

Drainage work calls for clean stone. #57 limestone and #67 stone go in French drains, foundation drains and drywells, and #8 crushed stone suits fine drainage and pipe bedding.

Drain rock is the general choice for downspout runs and ground that holds water.

Sand and soil finish the job. Masonry sand beds brick and block work and fills paver joints, washed sand beds and levels under slabs and pavers, and topsoil or garden soil rebuilds a workable layer over tight clay.

Ground and Conditions in Big Creek

The North Central Hills ground is sand, silt and clay beds of the older coastal plain, capped with loess on the western side. Soils are loamy on the ridges and clayey in the hollows, and ironstone and ferruginous gravel show up in places.

That clay subsoil under a loamy surface is what catches people out. Water moves through the top layer, then sits in low spots because the clay below will not take it.

The ground rolls, with short, steep grades. Runoff concentrates quickly in the draws, and a drive built on an under-built base moves under that water.

Cleared slopes cut into rills and gullies, drive crossings wash out, and stream banks scour after summer downpours. Rip rap armours banks, culvert outlets and pond edges, and a clean stone drainage layer keeps water moving instead of pooling.

Work runs nearly year-round here. Wet late winter and early spring ground is the main hold-up, so timing a base and a load of topsoil around that stretch matters more than cold does.
