Aggregates are the important constituents of the concrete which give body to the concrete and also reduce shrinkage. Aggregates occupy 70 to 80 % of total volume of concrete. So, we can say that one should know definitely about the aggregates in depth to study more about concrete. Classification of Aggregates as per Size and Shape

aggregates cannot be overemphasized. The fine and coarse aggregates generally occupy 60% to 75% of the concrete volume (70% to 85% by mass) and strongly influ-ence the concrete's freshly mixed and hardened proper-ties, mixture proportions, and economy. Fine aggregates (Fig. 5-1) generally consist of natural sand or crushed

Concrete is one of the most widely used construction material throughout the world. It is obtained by mixing together cement, aggregates, water and sometimes admixtures. The mixture when placed in forms and allowed to cure, it hardens into a rock like mass. The quality of concrete is exclusively dependant on the quality of its ingredients and the

Civil Concrete Technology Lectures Notes Concrete Definition In its simplest form, concrete is a mixture of paste and aggregates (rocks). The paste, composed essentially of portland cement and water, coats the surface of the fine (small) and coarse (larger) aggregates. Through a series of chemical reactions called hydration, the paste hardens and gains strength to form the rock-like …
