Chapter 4: Methods of Concrete Construction and Building
Concrete, cement and other aggregate materials play a vital role in both architectural and civil projects. Construction crews frequently use concrete, the main component of paving. However, the nature of concrete makes transport and use a very complicated process that involves various pieces of heavy equipment.

Construction Aggregates 101: What They Are (and Why
Aggregate production dates back to the Roman Empire, and it has been critical to the growth of our world ever since. Aggregates are the most basic material used in construction. They provide the foundation for roads, bridges, and buildings, while also making up over 90% of an asphalt pavement and up to 80% of a concrete mix.

Aggregate Handling Systems
Aggregate handling and conveyor systems are available for any concrete batch plant or applications that require the unloading, storage, and transfer of aggregate materials. From unloading, transfer to storage, and transfer to production, a multitude of systems can be designed to efficiently move aggregate materials at the least possible cost.

Cement and Concrete: Environmental Considerations
Cement is the key ingredient in concrete products. Comprising roughly 12% of the average residential-grade ready mix concrete, cement is the binding agent that holds sand and other aggregates together in a hard, stone-like mass. Portland cement accounts for about 95% of the cement produced in North America.

The Importance of Fineness Modulus| Concrete Construction
Fine aggregate affects many concrete properties, including workability and finishability. Usually, a lower FM results in more paste, making concrete easier to finish. For the high cement contents used in the production of high-strength concrete, coarse sand with an FM around 3.0 produces concrete with the best workability and highest
