Sand & Aggregate is a general term for sand, gravel and other materials in construction projects. It is the main building material for concrete and stone masonry in hydraulic engineering, and it acts as skeleton or filling in concrete.
Crusher Run
Crusher run is a blended mix of coarse aggregate and fine aggregate. The combination of both crushed stone and stone dust creates a low void content (the amount of space or air between the pieces of rock in a mix) that is valuable in concrete construction for its compaction ability and drainage characteristics. Crusher run is typically used underneath concrete slabs, patios, driveways, sidewalks, and walkways and ranges in sizes from ½” to 4” with stone dust.
Manufacturing Sand
Manufactured sand (M-Sand) is a substitute of river sand for concrete construction. Manufactured sand is produced from hard granite stone by crushing. The crushed sand is of cubical shape with grounded edges, washed and graded to as a construction material. The size of manufactured sand (M-Sand) is less than 4.75mm.
Quarry Dust
Quarry dust is a byproduct of the crushing process which is a concentrated material to use as aggregates for concreting purposes, especially as fine aggregates. In quarrying activities, the rock has been crushed into various sizes; during the process, the dust generated is called quarry dust and it is formed as waste.
Sand and aggregates are essential raw materials used in concrete production and construction filling works. They include fine sand, coarse aggregates, and crusher run, serving as the base components for building strength and stability.
