Gravel is a mixture of three sizes or types of material: stone, sand and fines. This will be discussed further in the next section.Without a good blend of these three sizes, the gravel will perform poorly. Unfortunately, poor performing gravel will often be blamed on the maintenance operator. But the operator cannot make good gravel out of bad ...
