Optimization of concrete recipe made with crushed aggregate

Sammanfattning: This paper investigate however concrete recipes with a specific type ofcrushed aggregate can be optimized to reduce cement content for concreteand compares it to concrete made with natural fine aggregate. The different aggregate types are sieved, and the particle size distribution curve is made for each one. The specific surface area and fineness modulus are also calculated. Different methods for determining the appropriate aggregate mixture are used, including Fuller’s curve and modified Toufar. Both mortar and concrete tests are performed to determine the water retaining capacity and slump diameter. Regarding the concrete tests, 1
