Materials for Tularosa Projects

Grading and bed prep start below the surface. Fill dirt raises grade and backfills before anything else goes down, and it is the first load on a lot that sits low or uneven.

Topsoil goes over thin desert ground for lawns, tree wells and bed prep. Garden soil fills raised beds and planting areas, which is how most gardeners here get around a caliche layer instead of digging through it.

Base course, also called Type I or Type II base course or 3/4 minus, is the compacted base for driveways, parking pads and slab and shed bases. It is what New Mexico calls road base.

Washed sand, also called concrete sand, beds and levels flatwork. Mason sand, sold as plaster sand or masonry sand, handles block, brick and adobe work, stucco and plaster coats, and paver joints.

For paths, patios and courtyards, crusher fines pack to a firm walkable crust and are sold by color. Natural Pea Gravel and 3/4 crushed rock cover walkways, dog runs and drainage beds.

Ground and Conditions in Tularosa

Caliche and crusted desert soil take almost no water. A monsoon cell can drop an inch in an hour, and nearly all of it moves across the surface, down the bajada and into the arroyos.

That is why drainage gets planned before surfacing. Drain rock and #57 stone run French drains, dry wells and foundation drains, and they carry canale and downspout splash runs away from the wall.

Where flow crosses a bank or a culvert outlet, rip rap armors the slope against flash water.

Wind moves sand and dust across the basin floors, and sheet flow strips bare desert pavement. A compacted base course surface holds up better than loose material on both counts.

Frost heave matters far less here than heat, sun and salt. This is the mildest ground in the state, so the working season is set by summer heat and the monsoon, not by winter.
