UNITED STATES TRANSPORTATION DEPARTMENT RESEARCH SHOWS
THERE ARE THREE, (3) PRIMARY REASONS FOR POOR
GRAVEL ROAD CONDITIONS AND WASHBOARDING:
- LACK OF MOISTURE
- DRIVING HABITS, (AUTOMOBILE SUSPENSION SYSTEMS)
- POOR QUALITY OF GRAVEL
ONLY ONE OF THESE CONDITIONS IS CONTROLLABLE...
THE QUALITY OF GRAVEL...
3/4" FRACTURED STONE ALONG WITH A MIX OF SMALL FINES MATERIAL
ADEQUATE CROWNING AND SHAPING OF THE ROAD IS CRITICAL TO ACHIEVE PROPER WATER RUN-OFF AS WELL.
RESEARCH GOES ON TO SHOW THERE ARE CERTAIN "SEASONS" WHERE GRAVEL GRADING WILL HAVE BETTER SUCCESS IN REMOVING THE WASHBOARD EFFECT.
...AFTER A LIGHT RAIN OR WHEN THERE IS ADEQUATE MOISTURE IN THE DRIVEWAY / ROAD
ONE OTHER SUGGESTION MADE BY THE D.O.T. STUDIES IS THE USE OF A "BIT" TYPE BLADE. WHICH HAS A SERATED EDGE THAT LEADS THE WAY IN CUTTING BELOW THE WASHBOARDING AND THEN IS FOLLOWED BY A STRAIGHT EDGE.
AN ATTACHMENT WITH SCARIFIERS WILL DO THE JOB, BUT THE ISSUE THEN BECOMES DIGGING TOO DEEP AND CONTAMINATING YOUR ROAD SURFACE WITH SUB-SOILS.
AMERICAN CUSTOM TRACTOR SERVICES, LLC
USES ONLY SERRATED FRONT BLADES WITH A
STRAIGHT EDGE IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING THE INITIAL CUT.
