Concrete is a composite material composed of fine and coarse aggregate bonded together with a fluid cement (cement paste) that hardens (cures) over time. In the past limebased cement binders were often used, such as lime putty, but sometimes with other hydraulic cements, such as a calcium aluminate cement or with Portland cement to form Portland cement concrete (for its visual resemblance to ...

Aggregates can include sand, crushed stone, gravel, slag, ashes, burned shale, and burned clay. Fine aggregate (fine refers to the size of the aggregate particulates) is used in making concrete slabs and smooth surfaces. Coarse aggregate is used for massive structures or sections of cement.

Coarse Aggregate Properties. The properties of the coarse aggregate used in a concrete mixture affects the modulus for a few reasons. One property is the modulus of elasticity of the coarse aggregate. A higher aggregate modulus will result in a concrete having a higher modulus. As expected, a lightweight aggregate will have a lower modulus than the mortar paste. Conversely, a strong aggregate ...

Introduction. Sand and gravel are used extensively in construction. In the preparation of concrete, for each tonne of cement, the building industry needs about six to seven times more tonnes of sand and gravel (USGS, 2013b). Thus, the world''s use of aggregates for concrete can be estimated at billion to billion tonnes a year for 2012 alone.

to the strength of concrete. Using aggregate consisting of particles with varying size provides a more dense and strong concrete. Fine aggregate is normally made up of sand with particle sizes ranging from to 5 mm, while the coarse aggregate may contain stone up to 40 mm. Aggregate is obtained from various sources. Natural aggregate for ...

Does the use of larger coarse aggregate in a mix tend to produce concrete of higher strength? A recent report by the National Ready Mixed Concrete Association reached the following conclusions: 1. At a given water ratio, within the range employed in most structural concrete, smaller maximum sizes of aggregate will tend to produce higher concrete strengths than larger ones.
