Ground Conditions Across Wayne County

Wayne County sits in the Jackson Prairie and the Yazoo Clay belt, where the ground is alkaline, calcareous clay over expansive Yazoo Clay. That clay lifts as it takes up water and pulls down as it dries.

The movement is almost never even across a slab or a drive. Keeping soil moisture steady is the whole job on this ground.

Water that gets under a slab or pavement through an open joint, a downspout or a leaking line does more damage than a wet season does. Grading water away and keeping it away comes first.

Erosion on this ground shows up as slumping and slope failure where the clay has been cut or loaded. Slides happen where sand and silt sit on top of the clay and water perches at the contact.

Roadway edges drop away after water gets underneath. Rip rap and clean drainage stone are the usual answer on banks, culvert outlets and pond edges.

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

Winters are mild. Mississippi leaves the frost line depth blank in the residential code table for each jurisdiction to fill in, and sets a minimum exterior footing depth of 12 inches.

Materials Delivered in Wayne County

610 limestone is the base material for this market.

610 among the crushed stone course gradations, and Section 304 pays for that work as Size Crushed Stone Base.

It goes down under driveways, parking pads, shed and building pads and patio sub-base. County roads follow the same Section 703 sizes through the state aid spec book.

Clay gravel, also called pit gravel, is pit-run gravel with enough clay and fines in it to bind and pack. It is a long-standing Mississippi drive and farm-road material where a graded, compacting surface is wanted over soft ground.

Above that sit the clean, free-draining sizes.

#8 Crushed Stone and #89 Crushed Stone handle fine drainage, pipe bedding and paver joints. #4 Crushed Stone covers trench bottoms and construction entrances.

3/4" Crushed Stone works for drainage beds, drive surfacing and entrances. Stone Screenings bed pavers and flagstone and top a compacted base.

Sand and soil round out a project. Masonry Sand handles brick and block work and paver joints, and Top Soil builds a workable layer over tight clay or washed-out ground.

Choosing the Right Material

Jones County, Greene County and Perry County all sit in the Piney Woods and Southern Pine Hills, where sandy and gravelly Citronelle caps sit on the hill tops over Miocene clay and sand at depth.

That surface is often loose and free draining while the ground a few feet down is tight, and gravel is common in the stream bottoms there.

Wayne County's ground is the Jackson Prairie and the Yazoo Clay belt, so the two are not the same. On the Citronelle caps, water moves through the surface layer quickly and a clean drainage stone handles most of it.

On expansive clay, water that reaches the clay is the problem, so a compacting base like 610 limestone and a graded path for water away from the edge matter more.

Where a neighbour shares the same ground region, the material choice is the same, and there is nothing further to weigh.
