Typical Uses for Aggregates

Aggregates are versatile and can be used in many different projects such as:

• Concrete production
• Driveway construction
• Decorative landscaping
• Drainage material
• Building foundations

Aggregates are an essential component in the construction industry and are used in many different applications. They are a group of materials, including sand, gravel, crushed stone, and recycled concrete that are used to create building materials such as concrete, asphalt, and masonry.

One of the most common uses of aggregates is in the production of concrete. Mixing cement, water, and aggregates creates strong and durable concrete that is used in various construction projects such as buildings, roads, bridges, and dams. Aggregates are also used as a base material for roadways, providing stability and durability. They are placed under the asphalt or concrete surface to support the weight of vehicles and prevent damage to the road.

In addition to their structural applications, aggregates are used for decorative purposes such as landscaping. For instance, decorative aggregates such as coloured glass, granite chips, and marble chips are used in landscaping projects to enhance the aesthetic appeal of outdoor spaces. Aggregates are also used as a drainage material, allowing water to flow through and preventing erosion.

Furthermore, aggregates are used as building foundations, providing a stable base for the structure. They are also used as a foundation for railway tracks, providing stability and reducing the risk of derailment.
