In addition, the very fine grains of sand can lower the activity of cement, which significantly reduces the mechanical strength of concrete. In addition, due to the large specific surface area of the cement, capil- lary absorption increases, reducing the impermeability of hardened concrete and increasing the shrinkage phenomenon.

Definition of Fine Aggregate. Fine aggregate is the essential ingredient in concrete that consists of natural sand or crushed stone. The quality and fine aggregate density strongly influence the hardened properties of the concrete. The concrete or mortar mixture can be made more durable, stronger and cheaper if you made the selection of fine ...

Sand mining is a practice, that is used to excerpt sand, mainly from quarry/ open pit. Sand is extracted from beaches, inland dunes, and mined from ocean beds and river beds. The excessive mining of river bed, to encounter the increasing demand for sand in construction industry, has led to the ecological imbalance in nation. Environmentalists

The technique of electron-nuclear double resonance ( ENDOR) has been applied to study the hydrogen-bond network around the AsO44-. centre in X-ray irradiated KH2AsO4. ENDOR transitions from several sets of hydrogen nuclei surrounding the centre were observed at 4.2 degrees K and the spectra for two sets of neighbouring nuclei are identified.

It is obvious that, there is a maximum increment of 108% in compressive strength with the addition of quarry fines of 60% by weight of manufactured sand. The reason for this trend may be attributed to the presence of finer particles of quarry dust, which results in a denser concrete mix leading to increase in strength.
