The current paper aims to discuss the potential of recycling waste concrete to generate recycled aggregates (RA) that may be used as alternative aggregate sources in the production of concrete.

At any rate, perhaps as early as 300 BCE, the Mayans had sophisticated kilns to reduce limestone to cement. Both Mayans and …

In concrete production, fine aggregate materials are combined with cement, water, and other ingredients to form a strong, durable material that is used in a variety of applications, including building foundations, floors, …

Ettuet al. [17], after conducting compressive strength tests on a total of 120 standard 150 mm concrete cubes, concluded that laterite could be used as the sole fine aggregate in structural ...

These materials are classed as aggregate when they have been crushed down into fine particulates. They are further classified as either 'coarse aggregate' or 'fine aggregate' based on the following characteristics: Coarse aggregates have a diameter of between 9.5mm – 37.5mm; Fine aggregates have a diameter of less than 9.55mm

The American Concrete Institute (ACI) is a leading authority and resource worldwide for the development and distribution of consensus-based standards, technical resources, educational programs, certification programs, and proven expertise for individuals and organizations involved in concrete design, construction, and materials, who share a …

When producing thin slabs of concrete or other structural components, as well as in situations when a smooth surface is needed, fine aggregate is employed, while coarse aggregate is employed when …

The mechanical properties of crushed seashell concrete are inferior to those of natural aggregate concrete, but they are still satisfactory and acceptable; replacing 10.4% of aggregates with ...

This Bulletin describes types of aggregates normally used in concrete, aggregate properties affecting performance of the concrete, tests used to measure aggregate …

The present study evaluates the effect of utilising granulated blast furnace slag as a partial substitution of the fine fraction of natural aggregates on various concrete parameters using the general factorial approach. Two levels of the water/cement ratio (0.45 and 0.5) and four different percentages of granulated blast furnace slag (0, 20%, 40% …

Fine aggregate used in concrete is closely relevant to properties of concrete. Granular behavior and packed structure of fine aggregate can directly influence the fresh properties and hardened strength properties. Elastic properties and fracture behavior are also affected by the particle packing of fine aggregate [17-18].

Although the use of fRCA in structural concrete was reported to have positive environmental impact [38], studies have indicated several issues when using fRCA regarding fresh and hardened properties of new concrete.For example, high water absorption of fRCA may lower concrete workability; adhered mortar introduces more …

Aggregates, both fine and coarse, constitute about 60 -80% of the concrete formula. Mixed together with cement and water, the aggregate element helps make concrete more compact, provide strength, durability and workability. These properties make concrete one of the most widely used materials across the world.

The surface area of coarse aggregates is less than fine aggregates. 6: Function in Concrete: The voids between the coarse aggregate are filled up by fine aggregate. Coarse aggregate acts as inert filler material for concrete. 7: Uses: Fine aggregates are used in mortar, plaster, concrete, filling of road pavement layers, etc.

The suitability of quarry dust as alternative material for the river sand in concrete manufacturing is studied. M25 grade concrete was prepared with 0%, 20%, 40%, 60%, 80% partial replacement of ...

Given that aggregates make up 60% to 70% of a concrete mix, the aggregate characteristics, both physical and mineralogical, significantly affect the …

Aggregates. Aggregates, which make up roughly 60% to 75% of ready-mix concrete's volume, are obtained from quarries and aggregate banks. Additives. Additives are solid …

Concrete is a composite building material made from a combination of aggregate and cement. The limitation of concrete material, in this case, is a fine aggregate (river sand).

These fine aggregates are essential components in concrete mixtures and play a crucial role in determining the properties of the resulting concrete. Typically …

The term concrete aggregates covers a variety of products, but are usually summed up as stone and sand, in coarse and fine grade. Coarse aggregates are defined as any material greater than 4.75 mm. A coarse aggregate is also identified as any aggregate retained in a #4 sieve. Fine aggregates are any material less than 4.75 mm that can pass ...

Fine-grained concrete, also known as sand concrete, is defined as the concrete in which the coarse aggregate is replaced by sand or any filler material. The maximum size of …

Demand for manufactured fine aggregates for making concrete is increasing over the years as river sand cannot meet the rising demand of the construction sector. Because of the limited supply, the cost of natural sand is rapidly increasing. Further, its consistent supply to the construction sector cannot be assured as natural sands are …
