Crushed Concrete in Alma
Crushed concrete is sold by the ton, and loads for a typical project in Alma can run from one ton up to 40 tons or more. The size of your project determines how much you need.
Alma gets about 51 inches of precipitation a year, so a well-drained base is important. Crushed concrete's angular particles interlock and drain better than smooth stone.
Crushed Concrete Sizes Available in Alma
Crushed concrete comes in several sizes to match different jobs. The finest 3/8 inch works as a top dressing, while the larger 2 to 3 inch pieces are used for deep fill. The table below shows each size and its typical use.

Local Conditions That Affect Crushed Concrete in Alma
Alma gets about 51 inches of precipitation a year, which means drainage and washout planning matter for any gravel surface. With about 69 days a year bringing at least a tenth of an inch of rain, scheduling delivery onto firm ground makes the job easier.
About 72 days a year drop below 32F, so the work window matters and the ground can move. Winters here are cold enough to move an unsettled base, so compaction is worth the extra pass.
Soils mapped in the Alma area are commonly moderately well drained, so you may need more or less base stone under the surface layer depending on your exact site. The ground around Alma is in dual hydrologic group C/D: where it is drained it takes water in slowly and sheds a fair amount across the surface; where it is not, it takes water in very slowly, so most rain runs across the surface. Drainage and a deeper base matter more here than elsewhere, but it depends on the drainage of your particular site.
Estimating Your Crushed Concrete Tonnage
To find the right tonnage for your project, measure the area in square feet and the desired depth in inches. Then use Gravel Monkey's material calculators to convert that volume to tons. The calculators account for the specific weight of crushed concrete.
