Reading time: 5 minutes. The aggregates used in the production of concrete are inert granular materials such as gravel, crushed stone, sand, slag, recycled concrete, and geosynthetic aggregates. The aggregates may be natural, manufactured, or recycled. Fig 1: Aggregates used in production of concrete. The aggregates are broadly classified into ...
and bottom ash. The test results indicated that the highest internal friction angles were obtained at an 80:20 mixing ratio of crushed stone and bottom ash. The internal friction angle declined when the mixing ratio of the bottom ash became greater than 20%. The results of clogging tests indicated that a mixture of 80:20 crushed stone and ...
The results of the study show that, the strength properties of concrete using crushed rock sand are nearly similar to the conventional concrete. The study has shown that crushed stone sand can be used as economic and readily available alternative to river sand and can therefore help to arrest the detrimental effects on the environment caused ...

Crushed stone often has an angular and jagged edge because of the crushing process. Gravel, on the other hand, typically has a very smooth texture and surface because of the natural weathering and wear of being exposed to running water. Unlike crushed stone, gravel is usually sold and used in its natural state.
