Understanding Blackshear's Climate and Soil for Crushed Concrete

Soils mapped in the Blackshear area are commonly very poorly drained. That means you will likely need more base stone under the surface layer to handle moisture and prevent settling.

The ground around Blackshear is in dual hydrologic group A/D. Where it is drained it soaks water up quickly and produces little runoff; 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, depending on how your site drains.

About 36 days a year drop below 32F. That affects the work window and how much the ground moves, though ground freezing is not a significant factor in base depth. Work can run most of the year in this climate, which makes scheduling the delivery the easy part.

How to Estimate How Much Crushed Concrete You Need

Measure the area in square feet and multiply by the depth in feet to get cubic feet. Divide by 27 to get cubic yards, then convert to tons using the material's weight per cubic yard. For crushed concrete, a typical weight is 1.35 to 1.5 tons per cubic yard. Use our material calculators to get a more precise number for your project.

Frequently Asked Questions About Crushed Concrete in Blackshear

When is the best time of year to order crushed concrete in Blackshear?

The best time is during the drier months, typically late spring through fall. Blackshear has about 36 freezing days a year, so ordering during the warmer months avoids issues with frozen ground and allows for good compaction.

How many tons of crushed concrete do I need for my project?

The tonnage depends on the area and depth. Soils in the Blackshear area are commonly very poorly drained, which means you may need additional base stone to handle drainage, increasing the total tonnage. Use our material calculators for a precise estimate.

Do you deliver to a job site with no one on it?

No. Someone must be present during the delivery window to accept the load and ensure it is placed correctly. If no one is there, a missed delivery fee may apply.

What is the difference between the sizes you stock?

The sizes range from fine 3/8" for top dressing up to 2″, 3″ for deep fill and mud control. Each size is graded for a specific job, from compacting base layers to heavy load support.
