C33 Standard Specification for Concrete Aggregates

The C33 Standard Specification for Concrete Aggregates establishes quality criteria for the materials such as gravel, crushed stone, or sand used in concrete. It specifies requirements for their physical properties, cleanliness, and particle size to ensure durability and strength of the finished concrete. The standard helps ensure that the aggregates are suitable for construction projects by controlling factors like moisture content, contaminants, and gradation. Following this standard ensures consistent, reliable quality of the aggregates, which in turn contributes to the safety, longevity, and performance of concrete structures.
