For Subgrade and base course preparation, choose crushed stone aggregate within specified gradations. Ensure the largest stone particle size is between 1/2 to 2/3 of the proposed compacted base course thickness (typically 4 inches). Spread the crushed stone directly from trucks using spreading boxes or from roadside stone aggregate stacks.

The maximum size of coarse aggregate is typically 19 mm or 25 mm (3/4 in. or 1 in.). An intermediate-sized aggregate, around 9.5 mm (3/8 in.), is sometimes added to improve the overall aggregate gradation. Since aggregates make up about 60% to 75% of the total volume of concrete, their selection is important.
