A contractor laying out a New Mexico drainage build can use #2 Crushed Stone in the rough support layer around culvert approaches and ditches. The angular rock stays open after placement because washing removes the smaller particles between the pieces. Those gaps let water move through the bed instead of turning the material into a tight surface.
Caliche can send storm water sideways during a monsoon, so grade the base to shed water and keep loose stone away from an arroyo flow line. This material fits heavy base areas that need an open layer, not a smooth cap. If larger rock will cover the area, lay this open material first so water has a path below the cover.

Common Uses
Construction Entrances
At the point where site traffic reaches the road, a substantial layer of angular rock helps keep soil from being carried onto pavement by truck tires.
Culvert & Ditch Lining
Use substantial rock at pipe outlets and along drainage channels where concentrated runoff can displace lighter material.
Heavy Base Layers
Use as the bottom stone layer for soft ground, farm lanes, or equipment pads, with smaller stone placed above it.
Drainage Courses
The large voids between pieces allow substantial water flow away from the work area.
Why Choose #2 Crushed Stone
Stays Put
The weight and angular shape of the pieces help limit tire rutting and displacement.
Drains Fast
Because washed stone contains no fines, water can pass through the spaces between the rock.
Bridges Soft Ground
Large angular pieces distribute load over damp or weak subgrade.
Low Maintenance
After installation, upkeep is generally limited to periodic replenishment.
