201785 · Concrete is a mixture of hydraulic cement, aggregates, and water, with or without admixtures, fibers, or other cementi-tious materials. Aggregates are granular materials such as sand, gravel, crushed stone, crushed hydraulic-cement concrete, or iron blast-furnace slag. Coarse aggregate is that portion retained on the 4.75 mm (No. 4) sieve.

The review study yielded the following findings in regards to concrete material properties: (1) replacing NA in concrete with RCA decreases the compressive strength, but yields …

The size and shape of the aggregates impact the strength and durability of the concrete. The workability of concrete might be affected when using large size aggregates.

view more20191217 · Aggregate size and shape measurement is comparatively difficult but has a larger impact on concrete properties. Four methods are available to estimate the size and shape characteristics of particles. The accuracy of each method depends on the particle sizes. Aggregate size varies from 0.15 to 25 mm for normal concrete.
