Subject: Re: Building a driveway on geotextile fabric...what gravel?


W.C. Mo.
Had a city person buy neighboring ground. Tried to build road across field with 30 inches of black topsoil. By the time they got done shaping it they couldn't even drive a 4x4 pickup down it as it was tooooo spongy. With the drives I have been involved with, we always remove topsoil and build a good base with clay or rock, then either rock or fabric depending on traffic. Even then, if loaded trucks travel the same path continuously the fabric can push up the edges and middle. Personally for the price of the fabric, I would rather have extra rock.
