Schertz Climate and Soil Conditions for Crushed Concrete

Schertz gets about 34 inches of precipitation a year. About 46 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain. Without a hard freeze to lift the surface, drainage and washout are what decide how long the material lasts. Scheduling delivery onto firm ground matters, so plan around the wet days.

The ground around Schertz is in hydrologic group C, which means it takes water in slowly and sheds a fair amount across the surface. A deeper drainage layer earns its place. Because ground freezing is not a significant factor here, the base depth depends more on the load and the soil than on frost protection.
