Everything You Need to Know About #8 Crushed Stone
Size and Grading
- Size

- Crushed stone
Settled into its assigned part of a build, #8 Crushed Stone remains open because it contains very few fine particles. That makes it useful around drainage details and in paver base or joint-fill work, while also serving as a fine material in concrete mixes. In Alaska, this matters where muskeg and permafrost can keep moisture close to a cabin, shop, or hardscape.
For paver work exposed to deep frost and repeated freezing, place #8 Crushed Stone over prepared supporting material rather than mixing it into surrounding soil. On muskeg, follow the project's geotextile and gravel-support plan, then keep this stone in the drainage or paver portion of the build. Its crushed texture is suited to jobs where water management needs attention through breakup season.
