Millions of tons of graded aggregate base (GAB) materials are used in construction of highway base layers in Maryland due to their satisfactory mechanical properties. The fines content of a GAB material is highly variable and is often related to crushing process, stockpiling in the quarry, transportation and during construction at the site.

A Vital Ingredient in Road Construction. Road base is a mixture of aggregates, such as stone and sand, used in building roads across the nation. It is inexpensive and components can be many sizes, from almost an inch to a dust. A good road base should cover the surface soil completely and be able support heavy vehicles evenly.

When doing structural foundations or base course under concrete slabs and asphalt pavement roadways, Aggregate Base is in use. It can be placed by attentive spreading then compacting. The sub-base if formed by dust and small chipped aggregate layers, typically Crushed Fines. The crushed aggregate base lays on heavy traffic or driveways areas.

One of the earliest applications was in the construction of highways where simple geotextile separators were placed between the sub-base and the subgrade to maintain the integrity of the stone layer.
