3/8 Inch Crushed Stone and Bulk Aggregates for Douglas, AK

Rain drives everything here. Gravel and aggregate delivery in Douglas, AK starts with moving water away from a foundation, a drive or a low pad.

Alaska Rock Supply sells the washed stone that does that work.

D-1 base course handles the structural layer. Clean stone handles the drainage.

Both are ordered online by the ton or by the yard.

Materials for Douglas Projects

Water on thin soil over bedrock has nowhere to go. Clean washed stone gives it a path.

Drain Rock, also called washed rock or 3/4 clean, has the fines taken out. Water moves through it instead of sitting.

Use it for French drains, foundation perimeter drains, drywells and downspout runs.

The same clean drainage stone is also specified as a filter blanket. Same material, same job.

D-1 Base Course is the compacted layer under flatwork and the structural layer for drives, parking pads and shed pads. The coarser C-1 grading is the second option where a deeper structural layer is wanted.

3/4" Crushed Stone covers drive surfacing and trench backfill.

3/8" Crushed Stone is the fine crushed size for bedding under pavers and for topping a walkway. Stone Screenings pack down as a paver joint and path top.

Screened Sand beds pipe and flatwork.

Mason Sand is the finest washed sand, for mortar and block work.

Ground and Conditions in Douglas

Work runs close to year round at sea level in this part of the state. Rain stops a compaction pass, not cold.

Across the Southeast panhandle and the Tongass coast the ground is thin acid soil over bedrock, broken up by deep peat. Muskeg covers more than a tenth of the region.

The best drained ground sits on alluvial fans and scree slopes rather than on the flats.

Peat that is already saturated will not dry out on its own. That is why the drainage layer matters before anything else goes down, and why clean stone belongs under a base course rather than mixed into it.

Runoff on steep ground after heavy rain, stream and bank scour in the short coastal drainages, and shoreline wave action all move material. Riprap is the graded armour for banks and steep slopes, and Section 611 rules out rounded boulders on slopes steeper than 2:1.

Large River Rock is rounded cobble for dry creek beds and low banks, not slope armour.
