It consists of a mixture of materials between fine and coarse aggregate that allows the material to be within the granulometry curves that mark the norm SCT and AASHTO.
A combination of asphalt and stone aggregates in exact proportions used to build pavements.
Riprap, also known as rip rap, rip-rap, shot rock, rock armor, or rubble, is man-placed rock or other material used to armor shorelines, streambeds, bridge abutments, pilings and other shoreline structures against scour and water, wave, or ice erosion
Track ballast forms the trackbed upon which railroad ties (sleepers) are laid. It is packed between, below, and around the ties. ... It is typically made of crushed stone, although ballast has sometimes consisted of other, less suitable materials, for example burnt clay.
Result of the crushing process of the material extracted from the rivers, under the various granulometries are obtained gravel from 1 ½". y ¾".
Crushed rock with several faces, with a stone size ranging from 1 1/2" a 3" and 3" a 5"
Gravel is a loose aggregation of rock fragments. Gravel is classified by particle size range and includes size classes from granule- to boulder-sized fragments. In the Udden-Wentworth scale gravel is categorized into granular gravel and pebble gravel.
Rock 6" to 2".
Rock 44 pounds to 11,000 pounds.
Specific Granulometry.
Coming from the crushing of rocks with high resistance to wear. Granular and permeable matter.
Riprap, also known as rip rap, rip-rap, shot rock, rock armor, or rubble, is man-placed rock or other material used to armor shorelines, streambeds, bridge abutments, pilings and other shoreline structures against scour and water, wave, or ice erosion.
A rock is any naturally occurring solid mass or aggregate of minerals or mineraloid matter. It is categorized by the minerals included, its chemical composition and the way in which it is formed.
Derived from the basaltic rock crushing process. Due to their properties they are used for the manufacture of hydraulic concretes, asphalt concretes, hydraulic bases, as well as for construction in general.
The particle-size distribution (PSD) of a powder, or granular material, or particles dispersed in fluid, is a list of values or a mathematical function that defines the relative amount, typically by mass, of particles present according to size.[1] Significant energy is usually required to disintegrate soil, etc. particles into the PSD that is then called a grain size distributio
Breakwaters are structures constructed near the coasts as part of coastal management or to protect an anchorage from the effects of both weather and longshore drift.
Mixture of different materials to to build roads between other applications.
