Due to repeated blasting and refining, crushed sand is usually angular or cube-shaped. Crushed sand also has a rough texture, which makes it ideal for use in concrete. Contrastingly, natural sand is usually rounded and has a smooth surface. The rough texture of crushed sand makes better bonds in concrete than natural sand`s smooth surface.

As an alternative to river sand, the use of manufactured sand is becoming more prevalent because of dwindling natural sand reserves or the constraints and expense of extracting natural sand and gravel near urban areas where material is most needed.
