All About Aggregate: What It Is and How It Can Support Your Next Construction Project

Not sure what aggregate is? Read on to learn more about this versatile and sustainable building material:

  • What is aggregate? – Aggregate is the term used to describe a variety of materials that are crushed and combined with another material to produce concrete or asphalt. Gravel, sand and crushed stone are all used to support the material before paving and alleviate stress from compression. Gravel and sand offer strong support to cement, making it a stable material suitable for many construction jobs. If you have an asphalt paving job in Regina, don’t forget to order the aggregate!

 

  • What are the benefits of using it? – Most aggregate is sustainable and recyclable. It can be reused and sourced from outdated, deteriorating, or damaged construction sites.

  • What applications can they be used for? – Different aggregates are specified for many different types of materials to be utilized in different applications. Crushed rock is used in high strength concrete, asphaltic concrete, drainage structures, and other special aspects. Clean sand is used in ready mix concrete, drainage facilities, and backfill. Crushed gravel is used for traffic gravel, road base, structural backfill and areas that require a stable road surface. Rail Ballast and Rip Rap are coarse specialty rock products that are made from coarse aggregate deposits and utilized in rail and drainage projects.
