What happens here
With the 'solite rock' distributed, the next step involves using a John Deere tractor fitted with a box blade. The box blade is initially set straight and flat. The tractor drives back and forth over the newly spread road base approximately five times, dragging the material to achieve a uniformly flat surface. This process eliminates the humps and fills in depressions, creating a consistent groundwork for the next stage of road construction.
Goal: A tractor equipped with a box blade is used to perform the initial grading of the driveway, dragging the road surface flat to prepare it for crowning.
