CONCRETE STONE (3, 3i & 3ib) is a washed coarse aggregate produced from the highest quality Ordovician Dolomitic Limestone. It is manufactured to specified physical properties and sizes. Because the material is washed, it contains minimal fines and reduced deleterious materials. Pattison Concrete Stone reduces the amount of costly additives required to produce concrete. It extends the life expectancy of roads, reduces cracks, freeze/thaw impacts and maintenance costs.

in interstate highway paving, bridge decks and overlays. It is
approved for FAA airport paving, IADOT, MODOT, MNDOT, and NEDOT
It produces the finest aggregate available from one of the
hardest limestone ledges in all of Iowa.

Concrete Stone (3, 3i & 3ib) - Ordovician Dolomitic Limestone
Concrete Stone (3, 3i, 3ib)
Also known as washed base material, washed rocks, washed stone, D467, D57, D67. Pattison produces Concrete Stone from Ordovician Dolomitic Limestone in our state-of-the-art, jaw/cone crushing plant. Our plant features sophisticated compression crushing technology that reduces fines and increases fractured faces.
Concrete Stone Production
This material is frequently ordered with specific physical properties. Pattison’s quarry offers a variety of ledges that meet these requirements. Material sourced from these ledges is durable, has minimal deleterious materials and performs above requirements on freeze thaw, abrasion, specific gravity and absorption tests.
Concrete Stone Certifications
This product meets Iowa’s highest usage designations as Class 3i and 3iB. It can be used in interstate highway paving, bridge decks and overlays. Pattison’s Concrete Stone is approved for FAA airport paving and other federal projects. It is certified for Department of Transportation work in Iowa, Missouri, Nebraska, Minnesota.
Direct Rail Loadout
With our direct to rail transfer system, Concrete Stone products move quickly from production to rail loading with minimal handling, dramatically reducing product degradation, and material handling costs. Here’s what Wikipedia has to say
More about Ordovician Dolomitic Limestone
When it comes to rock, age really matters. Ordovician Dolomitic Limestone is some of the highest quality, hardest and most durable anywhere in Iowa. Ordovocian formations are only found in the northeast portion of Iowa. Pattison’s Clayton, IA quarry site is right in the middle of it.

State of the art Aggregate Plant
Pattison’s newly installed Cone Crusher and production plant is state-of-the-art, producing some of the highest quality Ordovician Dolomitic Limestone Concrete Stone.
Material is separated into various required sizes without inducing fractures, while yielding a refined individual rack shape that is the most desirable for tight compaction and stability. Pattison’s new aggregate plant produces Concrete Stone of exceptional quality.
Logistics second to none
Pattison recently completed its Rail Spur project, extending multiple rail lines directly into our new state-of-the-art aggregate production plant!.
Pattison’s advanced direct to rail loadout system coupled with the Pattison rail spur allows aggregate products to be loaded directly from the production plant on to enclosed rail ore cars for delivery. Eliminating excess handling saves costs, and insures a higher quality product.
Pattison High Quality Aggregates and Proppants
Pattison produces high quality ordovician dolomitic limestone Aggregates and silica proppants. Â Our Clayton IA, quarry contains multiple limestone ledges yielding material with a variety of properties that meet various requirements.
