Start with 610 limestone for a driveway or pad. The ground here is soft and wet, so what sits under a load matters as much as what sits on top.

Materials for Raceland Projects

Grading and bed prep come first on most lots in Lafourche Parish. Build the pad up out of the water, then dress the surface.

Select Fill raises low ground and builds a pad. It compacts instead of settling, so it goes under a base course and not under a lawn.

River silt is the other name yards use for fine alluvial fill dug from the river bottoms. Spillway dirt is a coarser borrow material.

Top Soil is the growing layer for lawns, beds and grade repair. The natural ground is heavy clay more often than not, so a good growing layer does real work.

Garden Soil is a blended planting soil for raised beds and vegetable gardens. Raised beds matter here, because the ground sits wet.

Under the surface, 610 limestone is the base. Stone dust up to about two inches binds it, and it hardens as it is rolled.

Crushed Concrete is recycled Portland cement concrete, crushed and screened with the fines left in. Louisiana permits it as a Class II base course material.

#57 Limestone is the clean open graded size, about 3/4 inch with no fines. It drains, so it suits a driveway surface and concrete work.

Drain Rock is washed stone with the fines taken out. It goes in French drains, foundation perimeter drains and downspout runs.

Mason Sand is the finest washed sand, for mortar, brick and block work and for a smooth paver setting bed.

River Rock is rounded decorative stone for beds and borders where nothing has to compact.

Ground and Conditions in Raceland

Across the deltaic plain, the water table sits at or near the surface. The ground is already saturated before rain arrives.

Nothing here drains downward. Water leaves by pump, canal or not at all, and a pad built on muck settles under its own weight.

That changes what a base course has to do. A fines-bearing base like 610 limestone hardens when it is rolled, but it holds water, so it belongs on ground that has been built up first.

Where water has to move, use clean stone instead. #57 limestone and drain rock have no fines, so the voids stay open and water passes through.

Coastal marsh soil is organic muck and soft clay, under consolidated and highly compressible. Firm ground shows up on natural levee ridges and old distributary channels.

Bank and shoreline work faces its own pressure. Coastal and wetland loss, storm surge and canal bank retreat all move soil, and wave action works on open water.

Angular stone such as RipRap is what holds a bank. Rounded stone does not lock together, so it is not bank armour.

Work runs year round here, interrupted by rain and high water rather than by cold.

What stone should I use for drainage in Raceland?

Use clean stone with no fines. #57 limestone and drain rock both leave open voids, so water passes through instead of sitting.

Drain rock suits French drains, foundation perimeter drains and downspout runs. A fines-bearing base such as 610 limestone hardens when rolled, but it holds water, so keep it out of a drainage layer.
