Ground conditions — Gardendale, TX
Caliche under sandy loam across this stretch of Ector County, shallow enough in most spots to build a driveway base out of what is already there.
The ground is close to flat, so pads have to be built up and crowned and driveways given real fall — there is very little natural drainage to borrow.
