Natural Colour Aggregates

Coarse Aggregates
* Coarse Aggregates are the primary building material supply, which includes a core component of constructions and high durability in strength. The Coarse Aggregates are the crushed stones extracted from crushing large rock quarry, boulders, or gravels (larger size). And the majority of the coarse aggregates constitute crushed gravels or stones.

* They normally range 40mm, 20mm, 14mm, and 10mm aggregates. While 20mm size aggregates are commonly used, whereas the aggregates greater than 40mm size are used in mass concreting.

Aggregates Process
* Aggregates are processed to segregated coarse and fine aggregates, properly cleaned, and removed from other materials to give desired strength. Some aggregators are crushed, while some are screened and washed. The proper coarse aggregates processing will furnish cleanliness, sanitation to prevent contamination and maintained to upgrade the quality.

Coarse Aggregates Applications
* Concrete production is the main use of coarse aggregates. It is available in Stone Chips and Cone Crushed. A mixture of concrete is applied for different civil engineering construction products including:

Asphalt Concrete

Road Words

Portland Cement Concrete

Masonry and Paving Blocks

Leisure and Sports Facilities

Foundations

Plaster

Mortar, etc.

Quality
* The quality of coarse aggregate influences the concrete's durability, which is a significant part of the selection process. Particular shape and size influence strength and workability. The coarse aggregates are tested to determine the properties and characteristics which are based on grading, abrasion, and skid resistance test, crushing value, etc.

Transportation
* Coarse aggregates are transported through in the barges or vessel fleets to different destinations across the globe. The designated fleet conveyor will transport coarse aggregates not less than 10mm, 20mm, 40mm in diameter with a density not less than 2 metric tons. Coarse Aggregates are supplied in loose cargo or jumbo bags. They are also shipped in bulk packs, not less than 1 ton each.

Aggregates are composed of geological materials such as gravel, sand and crushed rock. The size of the particles determines whether it is a coarse aggregate (e.g. gravel) or a fine aggregate (e.g. sand). The resulting concrete can be used in its natural state or crushed, according to its use and application

Construction aggregate or aggregate is a broad category of coarse particulate material used in construction, including sand, gravel, crushed stone, slag, recycled concrete and geosynthetic aggregates. Aggregates are the most mined materials in the world.

Crushed stone or stone or angular rock is a construction aggregate. It is created by mining a suitable rock formation and then using a crusher to break down the stone into different sizes. Crushed stone differs from gravel in that gravel has a more rounded shape and is made by the natural processes of weathering and erosion.
Crushed stone has continuously been used for a variety of construction needs because of its versatility. It is one of the most common and accessible natural resources on the planet. It is one of our most abundant and basic of raw materials.

Coarse and fine aggregates, suitable for use in bituminous paving mixtures, consist of hard, tough, durable natural river rocks shall be processed, by crushing, screening, and washing into S1, 3/4, 3/8, and G1. At the time of delivery, the aggregates shall not contain injurious amounts of foreign materials such as clay, loam, wood, metallic contents, unhydrated lime, or other deleterious materials. The physical requirements conform to are grading and fineness modulus, soundness, degradation, expansion, friable particles, stripping, adherent coatings, crushed count, and environmental stability. American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) Free from adherent coatings, organic matter etc. and shall not contain any appreciable amount of clay balls or pellets and harmful impurities e.g. iron pyrites, alkalies, salts, coal, mica, shale or similar laminated materials in such form or in such quantities as to cause corrosion of metal or affect adversely the strength, the durability or the appearance of mortar, plaster or concrete.

Aggregates are inert granular ingredients, such as sand, gravel, or crushed stone, which, along with water and Portland cement, are an important component in concrete. Which is classified into two distinct categories, Fine and Coarse.

Fine aggregates normally consist of natural sand or crushed stone with most participles passing through a 3/8inch sieve.
Coarse aggregates are any particles larger than 0.19 inches but usually range between 3/8 and 1.5 inches in diameter.
Aggregates must be pure, hard, and strong particles that are free of absorbed contaminants, clay coatings, and other fine materials that could cause concrete to deteriorate.
