Materials for Walnut Shade Projects

Storm runoff off these slopes moves fast, so start with the coarsest stone and work down to the fines. Coarse material armors ground that water crosses; finer material finishes surfaces people walk and drive on.

Coarse stone for slope, swale and bank protection

RipRap is the first call for creek banks, pond dams, culvert outlets, lakeshore and slope armoring. It locks together into a heavy blanket that storm runoff cannot peel away.

#4 Crushed Stone and 2 inch clean handle heavy drainage, construction entrances and trench bottoms. Railroad Ballast suits hard standing, track beds and severe drainage where the load is constant.

Washed stone for drainage

#57 Limestone, sold locally as 1 inch clean, is the Missouri standard for French drains, septic fields and concrete aggregate. It is washed with no fines, so water passes straight through. Drain Rock covers foundation drains, downspout runs and drainage behind walls.

Base and surfacing

Base Rock, called base rock, type 5 base or type 1 base around here, is the standard Missouri base material for driveways, parking pads, shed bases and farm lanes. Driveway Gravel tops a compacted base rock course, and Crusher Run brings fines that bind and compact.

Fine stone, sand and soil

Screenings bed pavers, flagstone and patios. Washed Sand levels and beds under slabs, and Top Soil preps lawns and beds over rocky ground.

Ground and Conditions in Walnut Shade

Spring is the wettest stretch here, and storms raise creeks fast. Chert and rock in the ground slow digging more often than mud does, so plan your delivery around a dry window when you can.

Heavy rain sends runoff off rocky slopes into narrow valleys and creeks, and on flatter uplands much of it drains underground through sinkholes and cracks in the bedrock. That is why drainage stone matters more than fill in most spots.

January nights still average below freezing and days usually thaw, so freeze-thaw cycles are frequent. Frost depth is shallower than northern Missouri, and the local building code sets footing depth.
