Materials for Magna Projects

Decorative rock carries a lot of ground here, because beds, borders and dry creek beds all have to hold through a dry summer and a hard runoff. Large river rock is the heavy choice for those jobs.

Large River Rock, sold as 4 to 6 inch cobble, suits dry creek beds, swales and slope cover. It stays put where flash runoff would move a smaller rounded stone.

Wasatch Cobble covers decorative beds, borders, park strips and mow strips. Utah yards often name a cobble after the pit or valley it comes from.

Natural Pea Gravel is the smaller rounded option for walkways, play areas and dog runs. Pea rock also works as pipe surround and drainage where a rounded stone is wanted.

For a path or a bed edge that wants a walkable finish, Crusher Fines compact into a firm surface. Stone screenings also bed pavers and flagstone.

Under any of it, untreated base course does the structural work. UTBC goes under driveways, parking pads, slabs, shed bases and paver work, and it also comes as Road Base sold by top size, 3/4 inch minus or 1 1/2 inch minus.

Ground and Conditions in Magna

Lake Bonneville sorted these valleys. Sand and gravel sit in the benches and in the deltas at the canyon mouths, and finer silt and clay lie out on the valley floor.

Soils across the Wasatch Front and the Bonneville benches run alkaline and low in organic matter. New lots are commonly stripped to clay subsoil before anything is built, so an under-built base shows up fast.

Bench gravel drains fast while valley-floor silt and clay hold water. Shallow groundwater sits close to the surface in the low ground near the lakes, so a drainage layer matters as much as the base.

For a French drain, footing drain, window well or downspout run, Drain Rock is the clean washed stone. Utah yards say washed rock about as often as drain rock.

Base, driveway and paver work runs from early spring into late autumn. Frozen ground stops compaction in midwinter, and July and August are dry enough that a base needs added water to compact properly.

Cold, dry winters bring repeated freeze-thaw in the valleys and light snow cover on the valley floor, so gravel drives and the edges of flatwork heave every spring. Frost depth is 30 inches in Salt Lake City and North Salt Lake; each jurisdiction sets its own figure, so confirm it with the local building official.
