Materials for Hanford Projects

Most jobs here start with grade. Fill dirt raises a pad above the surrounding ground, and Class 2 base goes down over it as the compacted layer under pavers, slabs and driveways. Caltrans specifies it as Class 2 aggregate base.

Contractors also ask for recycled base rock, which is Class 2 base made from Road Base or asphalt. It works the same way under drives and patios, and Caltrans allows processed reclaimed material in aggregate base. Some suppliers list the same material as crushed miscellaneous base, or CMB.

Once the base is compacted, the surface goes on. Match the material to the job:

Crusher run is the other option where you want a binding, compacting material for a drive. Most California buyers ask for Class 2 base for that same job.

For planting, topsoil rebuilds lawns and beds over heavy clay or hardpan. Garden soil fills raised beds, and shredded mulch holds moisture through the long dry season.

Ground and Conditions in Hanford

Hanford sits on deep valley alluvium. The soil runs to heavy clay that cracks in summer, and parts of the valley have cemented hardpan a few feet down that stops water moving deeper.

That combination punishes an under-built base. Water ponds on flat clay and hardpan, then softens whatever sits on top. Build drainage in from the start rather than after the first winter.

Use clean stone for that drainage layer. Drain rock and 3/4 inch drain rock carry water with no fines to clog the voids. Rip rap armors creek banks and culvert outlets against winter storm runoff, which is the main erosion risk on flat ground.

Timing matters too. The long, hot, dry stretch from late spring into fall is the working window. Winter rain leaves clay soft and sticky and stops jobs, and dense tule fog slows early starts.
