To wash or not to wash? - That really should not be the question
Choosing unwashed crushed fines often leads to adding more chemicals and mixtures to compensate for poor quality sand. As concrete performance directly depends on the quality of the sand used in the mix, more and more construction companies now choose the safe, quality option of washed sands that are made to their exact specifications.

why we should use crushed rock fines in concrete
CDE are the European leader in washing crushed rock fines, often referred to as 'manufactured sand.'. CDE are now actively targeting producers in India to help them get real value from their manufactured rock fines. Washing crushed rock fines to produce quality concrete sand in place of natural sand is now a recognised practice in the UK and ...

Effects of fines content on packing density of fine aggregate in concrete
2014.6.30 The effects of fines content in aggregate on concrete are still not clear. •. The allowable fines content has been a controversial issue for many years. •. The fines content would increase the surface area and thus the water demand. •. But the fines content would also increase the packing density as shown herein. •.

Best Fill Under Concrete Slabs - Gravel Subbase - Concrete Network
2018.7.31 Concrete strength also comes into play, but most slab concrete is around 3000 to 4000 psi, so it's not a major factor. The tensile strength of concrete is typically taken as 10 to 15% of the compressive strength, so only about 400 or 500 psi. Compare that to the tensile strength of Grade 60 rebar, which is 60,000 psi.

Importance of Gravel and Sand for Concrete Hunker
2022.6.18 Smaller gravel particles equals a "fine" grade of concrete. Use the fine aggregate for concrete slabs or other smooth surfaces. A "coarse" aggregate means using larger pieces of gravel. Coarse concrete is helpful for sturdier projects. Concrete with a coarse aggregate doesn't produce a smooth look or feel but is stronger than a finer grade.

Fine aggregates are usually made of sand or crushed stone
2023.1.28 Aggregates comprise around 70% of concrete composition and are presented in two forms: (1) fine and (2) coarse. Fine aggregates are usually made of sand or crushed stone, whereas coarse aggregates can be up to 1.5 inches in diameter. One digs up sand or natural gravel from a lake, river, or seabed and then processes the

4+ Reasons Why You Need the Right Size Gravel Under Your Concrete
2022.11.10 The recommended gravel to use underneath the concrete is ¾” to 1″ washed and screened gravel. This gives you more surface area underneath the slab and helps hold moisture away from the slab, helping prevent cracking due to temperature and moisture shifts. The same type of gravel should also be used around pipes that run
