Crushed stone or gravel is manufactured and will be sharply angular until it erodes over time through use as the arena footing. This erosion of the sharpest corners of particles eventually makes them sub-angular, but the former corners leave fines that have potential to loft as dust.

The most common sub-base material is DT Type 1 (MOT) which consists of crushed rock graded from 40mm down to dust. The range of sizes ensure the material interlocks when compacted whilst still remaining permeable to water. Increasingly a product known as DT Type 3 is being used which is very similar to Type 1 but contains a lower fines content and is more permeable to water. The use of Type 3
