Materials for McKinleyville Projects

Winter storms drive the material list on a lot of North Coast jobs. Runoff comes off steep ground fast, so coarse stone for slope, swale and bank protection does real work before anything gets built on top. Here is the range of sizes, from the big armor rock down to the fines.

At the coarse end, RipRap armors creek banks, culvert outlets and slopes against winter runoff. Caltrans calls placed rock on slopes rock slope protection. Railroad Ballast handles hard standing and severe drainage, and #4 Crushed Stone goes in trench bottoms and construction entrances.

For drainage layers, 3/4" Drain Rock is clean stone with no fines, so water moves through it in French drains and trenches. Drain Rock covers drywells, downspout runs and the back of retaining walls. #67 Stone works at a slightly smaller washed size.

Base comes next. Class 2 Base is the standard California base material, specified by Caltrans as Class 2 aggregate base, and it goes under driveways, parking pads, pavers and slabs. Ask for class ii base or CMB and you mean the same thing. Crusher Run suits drives where you want a compacting, binding material, though most buyers here reach for Class 2 base for that job.

On the fine side, Stone Screenings packs firm for paths and patios laid over a compacted base. Natural Pea Gravel covers play areas and bedding, and River Cobble sets the look in dry creek beds and borders.

Ground and Conditions in McKinleyville

Time the delivery around the working season. The dry stretch from late spring into fall is the main window for base, driveway and paver work. Summer fog near the shore is normal and does not stop a job, but winter rain and saturated clay do.

Most rain falls from late fall to spring, often in a few large storms and atmospheric rivers. It soaks into sandy ground quickly but sits on or runs off clay soils and slopes. That is why a clean drainage layer and a compacted Class 2 base earn their keep here.

Soils change over short distances. Sandy dune and beach soils sit along parts of the shoreline, while heavy clay that cracks when dry and swells when wet is extensive in the Coast Range valleys and hills. Hillside runoff and slides turn up on steep slopes in winter storms. On the shoreline, waves and storm surge work on sea cliffs and bluffs.
