There are three types of concrete mixes in Group I: Ref-I, RC-10, and RC-10*. Ref-I utilized only natural aggregates, and it is used as a control or reference mix for this group. The concrete mix RC-10 employed RCA with a replacement ratio of 10% of the overall weight of the NCA. The concrete mix type RC-10* also utilized 10% of RCA as of RC-10.

Abstract. The global consumption of natural sand is very high, due to the extensive use of concrete or mortar. The fine and coarse aggregates generally occupy 60% to 75% concrete volume (70% to 85% by mass) and strongly influence the concrete's fresh and hardened properties. Now a day's sand is becoming a very scarce material.

These physical properties of sand provides greater strength to the concrete by reducing segregation, bleeding, honeycombing, voids and capillary. Thus required grade of sand for the given purpose helps the concrete fill voids between coarse aggregates and makes concrete more compact and dense, thus increasing the strength of concrete.

Concrete being pumped through a line experiences friction with the internal wall of the pipeline. The longer the line, the more friction encountered. For longer pumping distances, the use of smooth-walled steel pipe can lower the resistance. The length of hose used at the end of the pipeline adds to the overall line length as well.
