It gets under a slab or a drive through an open joint or a downspout, and the clay below moves.

Start with 610 limestone, the crushed stone base this market specifies by name. It builds the grade and the pad that everything else sits on.

Materials for Mize Projects

Fill and sub-base come first on most ground here. Fill dirt raises grade and builds up a pad before a base course goes down.

Then 610 limestone takes the load. Size No.

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

For a patio, bed the pavers on stone screenings and set them over a compacted base. For a drain, use clean stone that lets water through: #57 limestone and drain rock both work in a French drain or a downspout run.

For a driveway, driveway gravel surfaces an existing drive or tops a compacted base. 610 limestone builds the base underneath it.

Ground and Conditions in Mize

Mize sits in Smith County, on the Jackson Prairie and the Yazoo Clay belt. The clay here 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, a downspout or a leaking line causes more damage than a wet season does.

Grade water away and keep it away. An under-built base over this clay shows it fast, which is why fill and sub-base come before surface material.

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.

Slumping and slope failure show up where the clay has been cut or loaded. So do slides where sand and silt sit on top of the clay and water perches at the contact.

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