Materials for Bruneau Projects
Start with the ground you are building on. Much of this country runs to thin desert soil over hard caliche and basalt, so grading and bed prep come first.
That work starts with soil and fill.
Top Soil is screened and clean. Spread it over thin desert ground for lawns and bed prep.
Garden Soil goes into raised beds and planting areas where the native ground is too thin, too stony or too alkaline to plant into.
Fill Dirt brings a low spot up and backfills around a foundation. It raises grade before a base course goes on top.
Under a drive, a parking pad, a shop floor or a shed slab, the base course is road mix. Idaho yards call it 3/4 road mix, and contractors order the same load as 3/4 minus.
Fines stay in so it locks up under a roller.
Public works plans in Idaho call the same material crushed aggregate, specified as Type I or Type II. 3/4 Road Mix is the base to order for a compacted pad.
Below that sits Pit Run. It comes straight from the pit, rock and fines at whatever sizes the pit gives.
Use it as sub base, structural fill, or to fill holes and raise grade. It is not a finished surface.
Where water has to move, use clean washed rock. Drain Rock is angular and washed, sold in 3/4 inch, 1 1/2 inch and 2 inch.
It suits french drains, foundation drains, drywells, septic drainfields and downspout runs.
3/4" Crushed Stone surfaces a drive, beds pipe and drains where an angular rock that stays put is wanted. Idaho says crushed rock far more often than crushed stone.
For a walkable surface, 3/8 Chip tops a compacted base on paths. Chips are angular, so they knit together and stay where they are put.
Washed Sand beds pavers and slabs and mixes into concrete. Mason Sand is finer and even, for brick and block work, paver joints and play areas.
For decorative beds, borders and dry creek beds, Snake River Rock is round rock in the size a yard lists as river rock.
Ground and Conditions in Bruneau
Water decides how a yard here drains. Across the Treasure Valley and the western Snake River Plain, caliche layers, clay lenses and shallow basalt perch water under yards and drives.
Summer cloudbursts run straight off crusted desert soil instead of soaking in. That runoff has to go somewhere, and a flat pad with no outlet holds it.
So a base course goes on ground that has been graded to shed water. Road mix with the fines left in locks up under a roller and holds its shape once it is placed.
Clean washed rock is the other half of the job. Drain rock in a trench or a drywell gives perched water a path away from the base.
Spring wind moves dry bare soil, so seed or cover ground left open after grading. The working season runs long here, from an early spring thaw into late fall.
Frost depth is set by the local building official. Cold nights and mild days give many shallow freeze and thaw cycles through the winter rather than one deep freeze.
