Table 2 Physical properties of aggregate.
From: A study of chloride binding capacity of concrete containing supplementary cementitious materials
Property | Specific gravity | Volumetric weight (gm/cm3) | % of fine materials | % of water absorption | Chloride ion content (% by weight) | Sulfate content (% by weight) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Fine aggregate (Sand) | 2.62 | 1.61 | 2.6 | – | 0.03 | 0.21 |
Coarse aggregate (Crushed stones) | 2.677 | 1.531 | 0.7 | 2.2 | 0.015 | 0.18 |
