Variation in the size of Aggregates changes the water demand, cement content, micro-cracking (strength) in concrete. It also effects pumpability, and durability of concrete. Grading of aggregates depends on the proportions of coarse and fine aggregate. If grading of aggregate is varied, it also changes cement paste content (cost economy), workability of the mix,
Aggregates: Quality of aggregates, its size, shape, texture, strength etc determines the strength of concrete. The presence of salts (chlorides and sulphates), silt and clay also reduces the strength of concrete. Water: frequently the quality of the water is covered by a clause stating "..the water should be fit for drinking..". This ...

About this site. Oct 01, 2001 · Tests were carried out to study the effect of the coarse aggregate type on the compressive strength, splitting tensile strength, fracture energy, characteristic length, and elastic modulus of concrete produced at different strength levels with 28-day target compressive strengths of 30, 60, and 90 MPa, respectively.
Concrete is the largest building material at present, and coarse aggregate as one of the important materials of concrete, its performance will have an important impact on the performance of concrete. Firstly, the effect of coarse aggregate on the length of concrete is analyzed, then the influence of morphology, particle size and content of coarse aggregate on the performance of concrete is ...
Both coarse aggregates and fine aggregates are the main constituents of concrete because they not only give the body to the concrete, it also have a significant effect on the fresh concrete based on aggregate's shape, size, texture, grading and crushing type. Moreover it is proved that aggregate's types has the severe effect on physic-mechanical properties of concrete as aggregate covered ...
Aggregates shape and size has a strong influence on properties of concrete. Rough surface textured particles increase the compressive strength of concrete up to 20-30%, instead of using natural gravels that is obtained from river beds. Rough surface have pores which have ability to form bond or create resistance against the applied load.
The structural framework and the strength formation mechanism of asphalt mixture are closely related, and the coarse aggregate is one of the elements of the structural framework of asphalt mixture, so the gradation composition is bound to influence the structure and properties of asphalt mixture.
smaller sized coarse aggregate produces higher strengths for a given water-to-cement ratio. In fact, it is generally agreed that, although larger coarse aggregates can be used to make high-strength concrete, it is easier to do so with coarse aggregates below 12.5 mm (Y, in.) (ACI 363-95).
The content of the coarse aggregate has a significant influence on the compressive strength of both normal and high-strength concrete. Increasing the coarse aggregate content of the NSC enhances the compressive strength; however, for the HSC it seems that there is an optimum content of the coarse aggregate to reach a maximum compressive strength.
Coarse aggregate is one of the essential components of concrete and occupies the largest volume in the mix. That is why it greatly affects the concrete mix design. Its properties such as strength, maximum size, shape, and water absorption influence water demand, the quantity of cement and fine aggregate in concrete mixture.
The size, grading, shape, strength and water absorption of the aggregate all influence the final concrete mix in various ways, so contractors need to keep an eye on these variables. The properties of coarse aggregate will determine the final quality and strength of a concrete batch.

Answer (1 of 2): The shapes of the coarse aggregate affect the strength of the concrete indirectly. If flaky or angular coarse aggregate is used, it will adversely affect workability. Poor workability means poor placement of concrete. Poor placement means that some weak spots or honeycombs or voi...
