Read MoreIn order to be compacted, the mixture must have controlled workability. Typically, for dense-graded mixes, a lift thickness of 3 to 4 times the nominal maximum size (NMS) of the aggregate is needed. For example, a mix containing ½-inch NMS stone should be placed at a compacted depth of at least 1-½ to 2 inches.

Read MoreBased on their size, the aggregates are named as: Fine Aggregate; Coarse Aggregate; The material below 4.75 mm in size refers to fine aggregate. The percentage of all types of harmful matter in fine aggregate should not surpass 5%. Crushed stone dust or natural sand is the fine aggregate chiefly utilised in the concrete mix.

Read MoreSince aggregates come in different sizes like 10mm, 20mm, and 40mm. The weight of each aggregate size in 1 CFT is not the same. Since the aggregates of 40 mm are of large size, there are large pores between each particle and it is filled with air. Due to this, the weight of the larger size aggregate would have been less in 1 CFT.
Read MoreFine aggregates usually consist of sand or crushed stone. Which is less than 4.75 mm in size. The coarse aggregate is usually between 4.75 mm and 37.5 mm. The use of mixed fines and coarse aggregates reduces the chance of void in concrete. The quality of concrete can be improved with the correct mix of aggregate. Bulk Density of Aggregate
