It is important to note that the compressive strength of coconut shell aggregate concrete at 3, 7, 14, and 28 days, decreased rapidly beyond the 15% replacement of coarse aggregates. It has been found that concrete may be produced without impacting performance qualities when coconut shell aggregates are used in …

2.1.5 Coarse aggregate. Locally available natural granite and vitrified tile are used as coarse aggregates. Coarse aggregates of 20 mm downsize consisting of 75% fraction passing 20 mm to 10 mm and 25% fraction passing 10 mm and 4.75 mm are used in all experiments, which satisfied the gradation requirements as per IS: 383-2016 for …

The properties of crushed coconut shell aggregate (CSA) is comparable to other lightweight aggregates and compatible with cement so that they can be utilized for the production of LWC [12].Gunasekaran et al. [13] reported that concrete produced using crushed CSA achieved a maximum compressive strength of 27.20 MPa. A mixture of …

3.1 Aggregate Crushing Value and Impact Value. The aggregate impact value for the e-plastic aggregates was in the range of 1.2–4.33%, which is an indicator of a strong material, since the values are less than 10% (Ahirwar et al. 2016; Dhanabal et al. 2021; Luhar and Luhar 2019; Singh and Pandey 2017).This can be explained by the fact …

Crushed rock can be used to manufacture coarse aggregate as well as fine aggregate. In Sri Lanka almost the entire requirement of coarse aggregate has been produced from crushed rock and a need for an alternative did not arise. Although the rock quarrying and crushing industry has been in existence for many decades, the development that

The study on the structural characteristics of asphalt mixtures involving the microscopic scale has rarely been considered. This study investigates the effects of the angularity of coarse aggregate on the microstructure of two commonly practiced asphalt mixture gradations (AC-16 and SMA-16) based on the X-ray Computed Tomography (XCT).

The suitability of the 4-parameter Weibull equation to describe size effects on the crushing strength reported in the literature is discussed. Furthermore, a Weibull …

The suitability of the 4-parameter Weibull equation to describe size effects on the crushing strength reported in the literature is discussed. Furthermore, a Weibull statistical analysis was carried out for a wide number of experimental results on rock aggregates, where it has been observed that strength decreases with particle size.

The selection of appropriate aggregates should consider important factors such as mineralogical characteristics and crushing processes. This paper aims to investigate the relations between aggregates sources, crushing processes, shape, and resistance to degradation. Therefore, different materials were compared in terms of …

Some coarse-grained rocks can be less attractive in some applications because of their low crushing strength. Substantial quantities of coarse aggregate are used as railway track ballast ( Fig. 2.1). Because ballast requires to be hard, clean, and angular with a very high resistance to abrasion, most of this type of aggregate …

The digital image based Aggregate Image Measurement System was used to capture aggregate shape parameters. The effects of aggregate shape on the SMA mix were captured via various indicators, such as workability, design (resilient and dynamic modulus), and performance parameters (i.e., shear, rutting, and fracture).

Depending on the type of parent rock gives the different crushing values of aggregate as a compressive strength varying from a minimum of about 45 MPa to a maximum of 545 MPa. It is a fact that parent rock compressive strength does not exactly indicate the strength of aggregate in concrete.

1. Introduction. The construction sector is responsible for approximately 6 billion tons of CO 2 emissions [1].Furthermore, the demand for raw material as aggregate for concrete is around 2.7 billion tons/year in EU countries altogether [2], 900 million tons/year in the USA [3], and 700 million tons/year in Brazil [4].Besides, at the end of the …

Concrete Aggregates. Ian Sims, Bev Brown, in Lea's Chemistry of Cement and Concrete (Fourth Edition), 1998. Ten per cent fines value. Portions of 14–10 mm sized coarse aggregate particles (optionally dry or saturated) are confined in a steel pot and subjected to various loadings, after each of which the amount of fine material generated by crushing …

impurities for fine aggregate and flakiness index, elongation index, aggregate impact value, aggregate crushing value, 10%fines value and Los Angeles abrasion value for coarse aggregate. It was seen that the most widely used aggregate types in Sri Lanka during the last two years were crushed rock as coarse aggregate and river

The frictional properties of the coarse aggregate used in asphalt concrete are a major contributor to the friction of the surface mixes. Selecting an aggregate that is not only polish and crush resistant to withstand the mechanical degradation and grinding under traffic loading, but also has a low friction loss rate and reasonable friction life is vital. A …

Detailed experimental investigations were carried out to study the behaviour of confined reinforced concrete (RC) columns cast with recycled aggregate concrete (RAC). For this purpose, RC columns were cast with 0, 30, 50 and replacement of natural coarse aggregates (NCA) with recycled coarse aggregates (RCA) and confinement …

In order to avoid the influence of the real particle shape on the particle crushing strength, the subsequent virtually generated particles are uniformly spherical …

2. Coarse Aggregates. The coarse aggregate size is measured above the 4.75 mm limit. These are more likely to be natural stone or gravel that has been crushed or processed. These will reduce the amount of water needed for a concrete mix, which may also reduce workability but improve its inner strength. C) Classification of aggregates …
