Effect of types of aggregate and sand-to-aggregate
2016-10-30 The types of aggregate investigated were brick chips, crushed stone, round shaped stone and black stone. Sand-to-aggregate ratios were 0.36, 0.40, and 0.44 and W/C ratios were 0.45, 0.50, and 0.55. Concrete specimens were made and tested for UPV, compressive strength, and modulus of elasticity. UPV in concrete is significantly influenced by the ...
