important Very fine sand is not recommended for concrete purpose The fines content in the sand below 600 microns should be about 30 to 50 This will be a ideal sand for concrete work as well as masonry and plaster work At present it is generally observed that the fine content in river sand below 600 microns are very less

When concrete is produced by mixing cement water and sand or other aggregate material the hardening process occurs as a result of the hydration of the silicate and aluminate compounds in the cement such as allite Ca 3 OSiO 4 and bellite Ca 2 SiO 4 according to reactions
4676The concrete grinding and polishing process can be a very loud messy and time consuming process Dust and slurry although it looks very messy it is pretty easy to clean We grind off several hundred kgs of dust on a standard domestic medium to full exposure job The dust will be bagged Expect some traces of dust or slurry to be left behind
3331At this point the concrete can rest and start the curing process We do recommend a curing compound be applied immediately after the finish as it helps the concrete cure evenly and reduces cracks Either way the entire curing process lasts 28 days but the first week is the most critical
3651Jul 29 2019018332After the water evaporates and the cleaning and sorting process is finished the remaining aggregate pieces can be safely used as crushed concrete Crushed Concrete Driveway Crushed Concrete driveways are a much more costeffective driveway solution compared to gravel driveways regular concrete driveways or asphalt driveways
4844Dec 08 2019018332For example if the concrete mixtures instructions typically call for 4 parts sand to 1 part water ie 80 sand and 20 water for most construction projects go with 3 parts sand to 1 part water 75 sand and 25 water instead to make your concrete more durable

4893Higher concrete strength compared to river sand used for concreting Lesser concrete compared to M Sand Silt Content Zero silt Minimum permissible silt content is 3 Anything more than 3 is harmful to the concrete durability We can expect 5 20 slit content in medium quality river sand Over Sized Materials 0 Since it is artificially
3774Jan 07 2019018332Base for new asphalt paving Through a process called rubblization old concrete pavement can be broken in place and used as a base layer for asphalt pavement laid over it Bed foundation material for trenches containing underground utility lines Utility trenches are oven covered with gravel to assist drainage and crushed concrete makes a

3278Process The manufacture of concrete is fairly simple First the cement usually Portland cement is prepared Next the other ingredientsaggregates such as sand or gravel admixtures chemical additives any necessary fibers and waterare mixed together with the cement to form concrete The concrete is then shipped to the work site
3969The soil material in soilcement can be almost any combination of sand silt clay gravel or crushed stone Local granular materials such as slag caliche limerock and scoria plus a wide variety of waste materials including cinders fly ash foundry sands and screenings from quarries and gravel pits can all be utilized as soil material

3625Jul 26 2016018332However overworking can cause too much sand and cement to rise to the surface This weakens the integrity of the concrete and can cause it to crack under heavy weight Then we wait for surface water or bleed water to disappear This water escapes from the concrete early in the setting process It will be reabsorbed before the concrete
4373This can lead to more water and cement requirement to achieve the expected workability leading to increased costs Larger proportion of micro fines Manufactured sand can contain larger amounts of micro fine particles than natural sand owing to its production process This again can affect the strength and workability of the screed or concrete
