Materials for Edwards Projects

Grading and bed prep come first on most sites around Edwards. Fill dirt raises grade and builds up a pad before a base course goes down.

Topsoil goes over tight clay to give roots a workable layer. Garden soil suits raised beds and planting areas where the native ground will not drain.

For a compacted base, 610 limestone is the local name. Size No.

Clay gravel is pit-run gravel with enough clay and fines to bind and pack. It has long been a drive and farm-road surface over soft ground.

Clean stone handles water. #57 Limestone suits French drains, foundation drains and drive surfacing.

Drain Rock works in drywells and downspout runs.

Sand and decorative stone round out a project. Masonry Sand beds brick and block work.

River Rock fills decorative beds and dry creek beds.

Ground and Conditions in Edwards

This part of the state sits on the Jackson Prairie and the Yazoo Clay belt. The clay is alkaline and calcareous, and it is the state's best known expansive clay.

It lifts when it takes up water and pulls down as it dries. That movement is almost never even across a slab or a drive.

Keeping soil moisture steady is the whole job. Water that gets under a slab or pavement through an open joint or a downspout causes more damage than a wet season does.

Grade water away and keep it away. That is the first move on any pad or drive in this clay.

Erosion follows the same pattern. Clay that has been cut or loaded slumps, and slopes slide where sand and silt sit on top of the clay and water perches at the contact.

Roadway edges drop away after water gets underneath. A clean stone drainage layer moves water instead of holding it.

Work runs nearly year round here. The clay is at its worst in a wet spell after a long dry summer, when it takes up water fastest.

Winter is mild. Nothing in a Mississippi winter compares with what the clay does between a wet spring and a dry August.
