1500m3 supply of exposed aggregates and coloured concretes for this civil project. Products consisted of 40MPa Exposed 10mm River Gravel/Blue Metal with Paperbark Oxide, Exposed 20mm River Gravel with Paperbark Oxide, 40MPa Pavement with Paperbark Oxide.
Aggregates are a critical component of a fit-for-purpose concrete mix. The properties of different aggregates mean they will result in very different attributes to the set product.
It is important to both the physical and aesthetic result that the right aggregate or aggregate mix is selected.
Aggregates are selected for a range of differing properties including:
- Wear resistance
- Slip resistance
- Shape
- Colour
- Sheen
