aggregate used. While, Walker and Bloem (2007) attest that the type of coarse aggregate used results in a decrease in the compressive strength of concrete. Ruiz (2006) on the other hand, found that the compressive strength of concrete increases when the content of the coarse aggregate increases until a critical volume is reached.
Mideast Concrete Division (for) stone sand . . . (if) minus #200 sieve is dust of fracture . . . use in concrete subject to abrasion and in other concrete may be increased to 5.0 % and 7.0%, respectively.
The type of coarse aggregate also influences the modulus of elasticity of concrete. Weaker aggregates tend to produce a more ductile concrete than stronger aggregates do (Beshr et. al., 2003). Three types of coarse aggregates were mixed in four different proportions for concrete production.
Coarse river sand with fineness modulus of 3.0 with water cement ratio of 0.4 was used to produce the said concrete using mix ratio 1:1.5:3 (cement:sand:granite). The coarse aggregate sizes namely 19 mm and 25 mm were also used along separately. The cement was subjected to specific gravity, fineness, consistency, setting time,

As concrete demand and conumption is increased rapidly demand of natural aggregate also rised. Similarly, the production of natural coarse aggregate is not sufficent ro satisfied these increased demand.Therefore, as a solution and to save enviroment the replacement of coarse aggregate in concrete is become essenetial.. Theare various alternative materials for coarse aggregate such as …
Water, cement, fine aggregates, coarse aggregates and any admixtures used should be free from harmful impurities that negatively impact on the properties of hardened concrete. Sand is one of the normal natural fine aggregates used in concrete production [1] .
Mix proportions of concrete It is reported that ne aggregate of limestone can reduce the drying shrinkage in concrete[5]. Mix proportions of ne aggregate were varied as listed inTable 4. Ex-cept the ratios of ne limestone and mountain sand, the amount of other materials of cement and coarse aggregate kept constant.Table 5 shows all mixture propor-
May 02, 2017 Variation in the size of Aggregates changes the water demand, cement content, micro-cracking (strength) in concrete. It also effects pumpability, and durability of concrete. Grading of aggregates depends on the proportions of coarse and fine aggregate. If grading of aggregate is varied, it also changes cement paste content (cost economy), workability of the mix,
Neville proposed the use of coarse aggregates of sizes smaller than 38 mm, with the aggregates being gap-graded and of multiple sizes [13]. Later, the minimum size of coarse aggregates of 10 mm was suggested by Orchard [14]. However, the grouting process and the grout determine the minimum size of the coarse aggregates used or vice versa [3].
Study on Waste Marble as Partial Replacement of Coarse Aggregate in Concrete Sarath Sunil, Nisha Varghese Abstract— Marble wastes is an industrial waste produced from cutting of marble stone for usage in various construction applications in India. Also, a large amount of marble is accumulating in the environment due to demolition of old structures having marble.
Apr 15, 2020 The average density of natural coarse aggregates and rubber aggregates concretes were found to be 2581 kg/m 3 for reference concrete and 2140 kg/m 3 for 30% rubber concrete. Concrete Workability Figure 5 shows slump values of the reference mixture and all mixtures with 8% rubber aggregates with different treatments and durations.
The present invention provides a method to produce heat treated, oil palm shell coarse aggregate via heat treatment at 60 C for 0.5 hour and grout coating of 1.2 water w/c formulation, as lightweight concrete production. With the use of treated oil palm shell coarse aggregate, properties of the lightweight concrete produced are enhanced which includes high comprehensive strength, …
Nov 29, 2020 Concrete mix gets homogeneity as the size of coarse aggregates decreases. Ultra-high-Performance concrete is Concrete is more homogeneous. (The UHPC can be used for structural and architectural members, overlays, and many more items through its factory and in situ production.
Oct 05, 2020 This research work reports the investigation carried out to determine the use of coconut shell as an aggregate in light weight concrete. Concrete samples were produced with different mix ratios, to determine the best and economic proportions that will give acceptable compressive strengths. Coconut shell aggregate exhibits low impact, crushing ...
D. Tavakoli (2012) Using ceramic wastage in concrete pro-duction causes no remarkable negative effect in the properties of concrete. The optimal case of using tile wastage as sand are amounts of 25% to 50%, besides, the best case of their use as coarse aggregate are as amounts of 10% 20%. In these -
the fines content in fine aggregate for concrete in the draft CS3 could be revised as follows: – Maximum fines content in fine aggregate for use in ordinary concrete: to be reduced from the current value of 16% stipulated in the BS 882 to a lower value of, say, 14%. – Maximum fines content in fine aggregate for use in marine concrete
Environmental Impact of Aggregates. Aggregates form the major part of concrete and are derived from many types of rock. Granite and limestone are extracted from quarries, crushed and graded. In many parts of the UK, land-based or marine sand and gravel are available: these require some processing, such as washing and grading, before use in ...

May 01, 2007 1. Introduction. To obtain good quality concrete using recycled aggregate it is necessary to follow the minimum requirements defined by the BCSJ , RILEM , DIN 4226.100 , and prEN 13242:2002 .Acceptable properties of aggregates are an elemental base for concrete quality, however adequate mix proportions and concrete production methods are highly important in concrete quality …
in concrete .The size of aggregate bigger than 4.75mm is considered as coarse aggregate and aggregate whose size is 4.75mm and less is considered as fine aggregate. Natural river sand as fine aggregate is the most important resource utilized by the construction industry for concrete production.
Aggregate is classified as two different types, coarse and fine. Coarse aggregate is usually greater than 4.75 mm (retained on a No. 4 sieve), while fine aggregate is less than 4.75 mm (passing the No. 4 sieve). The compressive aggregate strength is an important factor in the selection of aggregate.

the other comprising granite stone as coarse aggregates. The compressive strength of BFS aggregate concrete is higher than that of the stone aggregate concrete at the age of 90 days. 1.3.Slag- Manufacturing and Types In the production of iron, iron ore, iron scrap, and fluxes (limestone and/or dolomite) are charged into a blast furnace along
If such use is practical, it will help to alleviate both problems. A discarded concrete driveway that contained siliceous aggregates and a laboratory concrete beam that contained limestone as coarse aggregate and natural siliceous sand as fine aggregate were selected. Portions of each kind of concrete were processed into aggregate sizes.
Coarse aggregate is one of the essential components of concrete and occupies the largest volume in the mix. That is why it greatly affects the concrete mix design. Its properties such as strength, maximum size, shape, and water absorption influence water demand, the quantity of cement and fine aggregate in concrete mixture.
