3.1.3 Coarse Aggregate The types of coarse aggregate used in the study are granite, basalt and gneiss of different aggregate sizes (20mm-14mm, 10mm- 5mm). The aggregate are crushed rock complying with BS EN 12620[20]. The Physical properties of the aggregates are given in table 1.0 and Figure 1-3 depict the sample of the three aggregate type used.
CURRENT PRICES OF SAND IN NIGERIA (2022) There are different types of sand used in various parts of a building project. We have highlighted them below and their recent prices. 20 tons of Sharp coarse sand (1 tipper) costs between N42,000 to N45,000; 1 tipper of 20 tons of Sharp coarse sand that is not very silty costs between N30,000 to N33, 000
Coarse aggregate used in this research is crushed gravel, with a nominal size of 12.7mm. The specific gravity of the gravel was determined to be 2.56, and the bulk density was determined to be 1449kg/m3 and having a percentage of voids of 7.8%. The coarse aggregate (gravel) particles were passed through a series of standard sieve sizes starting
When the aggregate is sieved through 4.75mm sieve, the aggregate retained is called coarse aggregate. Gravel, cobble and boulders come under this category. The maximum size aggregate used may be dependent upon some conditions. In general, 40mm size aggregate used for normal strengths, and 20mm size is used for high strength concrete. the size

selected quarries in Ondo State, Nigeria. In this study, two granite quarries out of the quarrying companies in Ondo State are used as case studies. In order to achieve the aim of Coarse aggregate: Aggregates predominately retained on the No. 4 (4.75 mm) sieve. For mass concrete, the maximum size can be as large as 150 mm.
area of Anambra state, Nigeria. Crushed granite and river gravel as coarse aggregates were obtained from a local vendor in Makurdi, Nigeria. The fine aggregate is river sand obtained from the river Benue in Makurdi, Nigeria. Analysis was conducted to establish particle size distribution, bulk density, and specific gravity, aggregate

Granite is a coarse-grained intrusive igneous rock composed primarily of light-coloured minerals. Crushed granites are small chips of granite, used as a base layer for paving. They are rock-aggregate used in building and general construction [2]. In Southwest-ern region of Nigeria, the estimated demand in 2008 for granite chipping was 24.2 million
On the other hand, stones or chippings as they are called are coarse aggregates which are more than 4.75 mm in diameter. They may come as gravel, cobbles or boulders. In mortar, sand serve as a fine aggregate mixed with the binder (usually Portland cement or Lime) in a given ratio so as to give the outcome an adhesive surface area, prevent it
Ogun River at Majidun in Ikorodu, Lagos State were used as fine aggregates. Washed gravel was used as coarse aggregates. The ratio of fine to coarse aggregate adopted was 45:55 (ACI, 1992; Krell & Wischers, 1988). The Lafarge Elephant Portland Cement grade (42.5R) was used as binders for this study while portable water was used for the mixing.
elongated gravel, smooth rounded gravel, irregular gravel and flaky gravel, were also produced. The quantities of cement, sand, water and the coarse aggregate were kept constant for all the mix samples, the only variant is the gradation of the coarse gravel-aggregate. The details of the concrete mix proportion are shown in Table 1 below.
