Materials for Jordan Valley Projects

Raising grade comes first on most ground here. Fill dirt builds up low spots and backfills around a pad before any graded base goes on top.

Quarry run is raw rock straight from the pit face. It goes down over soft ground to build up grade, then a graded course goes over it.

For a driveway or a parking pad, 3/4 minus is the standard Oregon base. Crushed rock graded 3/4 inch down to fines compacts and locks up under traffic.

For a patio, bed the pavers in 1/4 minus and top the compacted base with the same fines. For a drain, use drain rock.

Washed and open, drain rock lets water move through instead of sitting. It suits French drains, footing drains, drywells and downspout runs.

Where a slope needs armoring against winter runoff, riprap is specified by class, from Class 50 up to Class 2000.

Ground and Conditions in Jordan Valley

Ground across this part of the state runs to lake-bed silt, alkali flats and playa. Basalt rims stand above the basins, and old lake sediments sit in the Klamath Basin.

Under 15 inches of precipitation falls in a year, yet the basins are closed. Water has nowhere to go, so playa and alkali ground stays soft and holds surface water after snowmelt.

That soft ground punishes an under-built base. Silt and alkali soils shift under a thin layer of rock, so fill and sub-base have to carry the load before surfacing goes on.

Wind strips bare playa and alkali flats, and sheet flow comes off the rims into the basins during snowmelt and summer storms. Riprap and open stone armor the edges that take it.

The working season is short, bounded by hard frost at both ends. Frozen ground and soft spring basins both stop compaction, so grading and base work fit between them.

Klamath County publishes a frost depth of 24 inches below grade for foundation design. That figure belongs to Klamath County, not to Malheur County.

Questions from Jordan Valley Buyers

What is the best base under pavers in Jordan Valley?

Use 3/4 minus for the base course. It is crushed rock graded 3/4 inch down to fines, so it compacts and locks up rather than shifting under the pavers.

Bed the pavers themselves in 1/4 minus, which is the fines product sold as quarter minus. Both are graded by top size, with the fines kept in so the material binds.
