I love RVnet, we even have experts on road construction and concrete mix designs here. Fabulous!
I don't claim to be expert. Can you claim what we are doing is working?
I have stock-piled thousands of tons of material at concrete plants, and always inch sized or less. More than once truck get stuck going into job sites. Dump and level a load of gravel, can get few trucks thru, but soon pumped down in the ground. OTOH, a load of 6 inch minus, worked down to about a foot deep will let trucks roll. To me, it would make sense to use larger rock, say 3 inch down to 1 inch, instead of the 1 down to half mostly used now. Sure, would need more cement to fill the voids, but I think roads would last longer
