Materials for Belmont Projects

Base and driveway surfacing is what most Belmont work starts with, and the two minus courses do the structural job under a top course.

5/8 Minus, also called crushed surfacing top course or CSTC, is crushed rock with the fines left in. It packs hard and sheds water, which is what you want on a driveway, a parking pad, or a shed slab.

1 1/4 Minus, or crushed surfacing base course, sits below the top course. Its larger top size and fewer fines carry load and stay workable on soft ground.

Where water has to move instead of being held, switch to a washed stone. Drain Rock is a clean 7/8 washed rock for footing drains, French drains and infiltration trenches, and it keeps its voids instead of silting up.

Driveway Gravel is the blend for long rural drives, farm approaches and equipment parking. It goes down on its own where a graded course is not needed.

For paths and bedding, the fine end of the minus range and the washed sands cover the tight work.

Decorative stone rounds out an order: Natural Pea Gravel for play areas and planting beds, and Washington River Rock for dry creek beds, splash pads and rain garden armour.

Ground and Conditions in Belmont

Across the Palouse and the Blue Mountain foothills, the ground is loess: windblown silt piled into rolling hills, fine, deep and easily worked, and easily moved.

The real problem is water that cannot get in. When the top inch of that silt thaws over soil still frozen below, rain and snowmelt run across the surface instead of soaking down, and every slope turns into a drainage path.

Anything built on a slope here needs its runoff routed before it starts cutting. A washed layer under a pad or along a footing drain gives that water somewhere to go.

Eastern Washington's wet weather season runs October 1 through June 30. The working season is long and dry through summer and closes when the ground freezes, and the worst erosion risk is not high summer but the thaw.

Frost depth is set by the county or city building department, so confirm the local number before you size footings. Sheet and rill erosion of this silt on long slopes is why a bare cut needs cover fast.
