#2 recycled concrete, also known as #2 crushed concrete, is a durable, sustainable material produced by crushing and processing reclaimed concrete. It typically consists of large, angular pieces ranging from approximately 1 1/2 inches to 2 1/2 inches, providing dependable strength, drainage, and structural support for demanding construction applications.
The fractured particles interlock under pressure, helping the aggregate remain stable beneath traffic, heavy equipment, and structural loads. Its coarse size also creates open spaces that allow water to move through the material, making it useful in projects where both load-bearing performance and drainage are important.
#2 recycled concrete performs similarly to conventional #2 stone while supporting the reuse of existing construction materials. Its combination of strength, affordability, and long-term durability makes it a practical choice for road building, site preparation, structural fill, and heavy-duty base installations.
Common Applications of #2 Recycled Concrete (1.5"–2.5")
- Road base and access roads
- Foundation and building pad support
- Retaining wall backfill
- Drainage and erosion control areas
- Construction entrances and haul routes
- Site stabilization over soft ground
- Heavy-equipment yards and staging areas
- Base beneath smaller compactable aggregate
