Industrial Waste Aggregates

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Recycled Aggregate in Concrete

Part of the book series: Green Energy and Technology ((GREEN))

Abstract

The aggregates typically account for 70–80 % of the concrete volume and play a substantial role in different concrete properties such as workability, strength, dimensional stability and durability. Conventional concrete consists of sand as fine aggregate and gravel, limestone or granite in various sizes and shapes as coarse aggregate.
