Materials for Parmelee Projects

Grading and bed prep start with what you put on the ground. Topsoil, garden soil and fill dirt carry that work here, because the native ground is thin and stony in places and a growing layer has to be brought in.

Top Soil, also called black dirt, builds a lawn or a bed over ground that will not grow. Garden Soil fills raised beds, shelterbelt planting pockets and vegetable ground.

Fill Dirt, also called clean fill, raises grade and backfills before a base course goes down. Build the pad up first, then cap it.

Base course, also called aggregate base course or 3/4 minus, is the crushed base layer under drives, parking pads and shop slabs.

Gravel Cushion, also called crusher run, is the cushion course under concrete and asphalt. It is rolled to a stable surface rather than to a set density.

For drainage, Washed Rock goes in drain tile, drywells, sump runs and window wells. It is the usual Dakotas word for clean drainage stone.

Riprap holds culvert outlets, dam faces, spillways and stream banks.

Ground and Conditions in Parmelee

Water is the driver. Across the White River Badlands, southern tablelands and sandhills, runoff comes off bare shale fast during a storm, and very little water is held near the surface.

Sand drains almost too fast to hold a base together. On the southern ridges wind moves loose sand, and on the tablelands gullies cut where water gathers.

That shapes what you order. A pad built on sand needs a base course that will lock up, and low ground needs drainage stone before anything is placed on top.

Winters bring deep frost and wide day-to-night swings. Exposed shale and silt weather fast under repeated freezing and thawing.

Frost depth is commonly 42 inches in South Dakota, though the state sets no statewide figure and the local building official decides it.
