Which stone is best for drainage in Jerauld County?

Washed rock is the clean drainage stone for drain tile, drywells, sump and downspout runs, and window wells. It carries water instead of holding it. For heavier work, #4 crushed stone and railroad ballast give a large angular rock for trench bottoms and severe drainage. Riprap covers culvert outlets, dam faces and stock dam spillways.

What do I need to have ready for a bulk delivery?

Pick the material and the quantity by the ton or by the yard, then choose a delivery date at checkout. Have the drop spot clear and reachable so a dump truck can tip the load on site. The truck tips the material in one pile and does not spread it, so plan where that pile should land before the date arrives.

Base course is the crushed base layer for the compacted base under a patio. Over it, gravel cushion is the cushion course rolled out under concrete and asphalt, and stone screenings bed pavers and flagstone and fill the joints. Washed sand beds and levels under slabs and pavers.

Ground conditions across Jerauld County

This is Missouri Coteau ground. Hummocky stagnation moraine rolls in knobs and closed kettles over stony glacial till, and that till lies over Pierre shale.

Gravel sits in the kames.

Water has nowhere to run. The kettles and sloughs are closed basins, and the shale under the till stops what does soak through, so low ground stays saturated.

An under-built base on that ground pumps and ruts.

Wind scours the open knobs, runoff cuts the steeper coteau slopes, and wave action works the reservoir shorelines. Riprap and large river rock answer the banks and outlets.

Winters run long and cold with deep frost and hard freeze-thaw cycling on exposed ground. The working season is short between the spring thaw and freeze-up, and wind and drifting stay a factor well into spring and again from late fall.

Frost depth in this part of the state is set by the local building official, and no statewide figure applies.

Choosing the right material

Beadle County, Sanborn County and Aurora County all sit on the James River Lowland and Lake Dakota Plain. That ground is flat to gently rolling glacial till over the silt and clay floor of glacial Lake Dakota, with deep dark prairie soils and little gravel at the surface.

Jerauld County ground is different. The Missouri Coteau here is hummocky moraine over Pierre shale, so low ground stays saturated and closed basins hold water.

A base that would sit fine on flat Lake Dakota Plain till needs a drainage layer under it on coteau ground.

That difference is the whole choice. On coteau ground, put clean open stone where water collects and save base course for the compacted layer above it.
