1. Introduction. Portland cement concrete (PCC), which consists of 60–75 % aggregates, 10–15 % of Portland cement (with other supplementary cementitious materials or admixtures), and water, has been recognised as the most widely used construction material in the world [2, 3].The presence of reactive amorphous or poorly crystallised …

20.1.1 Introduction to Aggregates. By definition, aggregates are granular mineral particles, used alone (dry aggregates) or dispersed in a fluid medium (wet aggregates) [1–4].In some circumstances, the fluid medium is constituted by a suspension of a cementing material in water, which becomes solid as a result of a number of …

These effect of aggregate properties on concrete are discussed in detail. Concrete is a mixture of cementitious material, aggregate and water. Aggregate is commonly considered inert filler, which accounts for 60 to 80% of the volume and 70 to 85% of the weight of the concrete. Although aggregate is considered inert filler, it is a necessary ...

Aggregate comes in two general categories: fine and coarse. Fine aggregate tends to consist of sand, crushed stone, and gravel screenings. Fine aggregate is used when making thin concrete slabs or where a smooth surface is desired. Coarse aggregate, on the other hand, is made up of gravel, caliche, shot rock, and other coarse substances.

Aggregates Aggregates generally occupy 65- 80% of a concrete's volume. Aggregates are inert fillers floating in the cement paste matrix for concretes of low strength. The strength of aggregates do not contribute to the strength of concrete for low strength concrete. The characteristics of aggregates impact performance of fresh and hardened

Quality Counts. Make sure that your concrete producer purchases good-quality aggregate as verified by regular aggregate test results in compliance with ASTM C 33, "Standard Specifications for Concrete Aggregates." A history of good performance of a local aggregate also provides an indication of how well the material performs in service.
