The results show how the utilization of BOF slag as coarse aggregate in road construction improves the technical performance of asphalt mixtures (Marshall Quotient 4.9 vs. 6.6). Moreover, the introduction of BOF slag into the asphalt mix as a coarse aggregate, instead of limestone, causes a carbon emissions reduction rate of …

Aggregate production dates back to the Roman Empire, and it has been critical to the growth of our world ever since. Aggregates are the most basic material used in construction. They provide the foundation for roads, bridges, and buildings, while also making up over 90% of asphalt pavement and up to 80% of a concrete mix.

Sand is broken down into two different types: fine and coarse. Fine sand is used as a filler and bulking material in construction due to its small size and ability to be packed tightly. This allows it to fill in the empty spaces other construction aggregates like gravel can't. Coarse sand is used as a primary component in concrete mixtures.
