Construction aggregate or aggregate is a broad category of coarse particulate material used in construction, including sand, gravel, crushed stone, slag, recycled concrete and geosynthetic aggregates. Aggregates are the most mined materials in the world.Crushed stone or Stone or angular rock is a construction aggregate. It is created by mining a suitable rock formation and then using a crusher to break down the stone into different sizes. Crushed stone differs from gravel in that gravel has a more rounded shape and is made by the natural processes of weathering and erosion.Crushed stone has continuously been used for a variety of construction needs because of its versatility. It is one of the most common and accessible natural resources on the planet. It is one of our most abundant and basic of raw materials.Uses of stone aggregatesStones are used in various industries from construction to agriculture.Their uses are:Used in paving blocks and concrete for sidewalks, driveways, patios, homes, office buildings and paved roads as a base or sub base material or in the process of cement manufacture.Used as a flux in blast furnaces to create liquid slag which, when cooled, becomes a stone material that is crushed and used as a construction aggregate.Placed on the ground in landscapes around trees, drains and as tracking pads on construction sites.A road construction technique called Macadam uses stones in which the strength of the road depends upon the interlocking of the stones due to their angular shapes.Used with a binding material in walls for shorelines in order to protect against erosion from water or ice.Used in railroad constructionUsed in sewage treatment systemsUsed in the manufacture of agricultural limeTypesTypes of crushed stone are categorized by the size of the stone after it has been crushed.6mm10mm20mm45 65 mmRailway BallastBoulders ( As per clients requirement )Quarry Dust

Silica sand is a granular material that contains quartz and minute amounts of coal, clay and other minerals. It is also known as quartz sand and industrial sand, and is largely used in several construction applications.Silica is another name for silicon dioxide, of which quartz is a specific latticed structure. So, silica sand is quartz that over the years , through the work of water and wind , has been broken down into tiny granules.Industrial sand is a term normally applied to high purity silica sand products with closely controlled sizing. It is a more precise product than common concrete and asphalt gravels.From water filtration, to glass manufacture, to industrial casting, to sand blasting, to producing concrete, to adding texture to slick roads, silica sandimpacts every aspect of daily life.
