Materials for Myrtle Projects

Much of the work here starts with grade. If a lot sits low, or a shed pad needs to come up to level, fill dirt goes down first to build the elevation.

Then a compacted base course goes over it.

For that base, 610 limestone is the local standard. Size No.

It suits driveways, parking pads, shed and building pads, and patio sub-base.

Clay gravel is the other road material to know. It is pit-run gravel with enough clay and fines to bind and pack, and it has long been a Mississippi drive and farm-road surface over soft ground.

Once the base is in, the finish depends on the job. Here is what fits where.

For a driveway, 610 limestone or clay gravel builds the body of it, and driveway gravel tops a compacted base. For a patio, 610 limestone goes under the pavers and stone screenings bed them.

For a drain, #57 limestone and drain rock both move water, with #8 crushed stone for tighter work and pipe bedding. Where ground stays wet, fill dirt raises grade before any base goes down.

Ground and Conditions in Myrtle

This corner of the state carries the most varied ground in Mississippi. Reddish sandy marl soils sit on the Pontotoc Ridge, a narrow belt of heavy, poorly drained Flatwoods clay runs just west of it, and loamy hill soils lie over Cretaceous sands toward the Tombigbee.

That range decides how a base performs. On the ridge and hill soils, water moves and a base course behaves.

On the Flatwoods clay, water sits and ground stays soft long after a rain, so an under-built base pumps and fails.

Steep, narrow valleys shed water fast, and runoff cuts hill slopes and valley walls. Where a drive crosses a draw, that flow finds the edges.

Rip rap armours banks, culvert outlets and pond edges against it.

Work runs nearly year round here. The Flatwoods clay belt is the ground most likely to be too wet to compact in late winter, so timing around that matters more than the cold.

Questions from Myrtle Buyers

What is the best base under pavers in Myrtle?

610 limestone is the compacting base for patio sub-base. Over it, stone screenings bed the pavers and fill the joints.

On Flatwoods clay, raise grade with fill dirt first so the base is not sitting on soft ground.
