Crushed stone is used for concrete aggregate, for road building, and, in the case of limestone, as flux in blast furnaces and for chemical applications. The quarrying technique consists of drilling and blasting to fragment the rock.
Crushed jelly stone can be used as an alternative to sand or crushed rock when compacting soil. this product is made up of small pieces of crushed jellied limestone which are ideal for compressing soil into hard surfaces such as driveways, patios, walkways etc.
They possess outstanding acid and water resistance, plastic energy absorption, high impact resistance, and sound/thermal insulation properties.
The density of crushed stone aggregate varies depending on the size of the aggregate. Generally, 10mm, 20mm, and 40mm aggregates have a density of 1.6 to 2.5 g/cm3. Here are the densities of some common aggregates: 10mm aggregate: 1.6 g/cm3.
