Coarse aggregate is a term used in construction to describe a type of material that is commonly used in the production of concrete. It is typically made up of various materials such as gravel, crushed stone, and recycled concrete. The size of the coarse aggregate can vary, but it is typically between 3/8 inch and 1.5 inches in diameter.
اقرأ أكثرRecycling of concrete is a simple process. It involves breaking, removing, and crushing existing concrete into a material with a specified size and quality. As per study about 75 to 80% of total construction material consist coarse aggregate portion. When the structure is demolished, the waste concrete in a large quantity is produced.
