Concrete Aggregates
Concrete aggregates are the granular materials, such as gravel, crushed stone, or sand, that are mixed with cement and water to make concrete. They provide bulk, strength, durability, and stability to the final structure. Aggregates make up most of the volume in concrete and influence its overall properties, including resistance to wear and environmental conditions. Proper selection and quality of aggregates are essential to ensure concrete's strength and longevity in construction projects like buildings, roads, and bridges.
