Studies have shown that this thermal stability coupled with limestone’s superior curing properties results in greater crack spacing, and less crack width in limestone concrete slabs. Most concrete is made by mixing a ¼” to 200 mesh (200 wires per inch) sand with aggregate graded from 1 ½” to 3/8” or aggregate graded from 1 ¼” to 3

High-strength concrete containing basalt and normal-strength concrete containing basalt or limestone yield higher compressive strengths with higher coarse aggregate contents than with lower coarse aggregate contents. The compressive strength of high-strength concrete containing limestone is not affected by aggregate content.

Limestone is a naturally occurring stone that is long-lasting and affordable. Limestone aggregate does not expand or contract, so it is also reliable. Here are common construction projects that call for limestone aggregate: Concrete — limestone adds durability. Road Base — crushed limestone fills in and creates smooth surfaces.

Due to its porous nature the coral / limestone coarse aggregate were pre-saturated roughly for a period of two hours to control absorption of the water in the concrete mix. To control slump, the limestone aggregates were pre-wetted before being used in the various mixes.

Limestone vs. Crushed Concrete. In its pure form, limestone differs significantly from crushed concrete in that the former constitutes a naturally formed rock found in marine environments and the other a manmade construction material. Limestone may appear in crushed concrete as a material found in the cement used to mix concrete.

Construction aggregates are an essential product for numerous construction applications. For pavements, they act as the principal load-supporting component. For concrete, limestone aggregate offers better strength and better value than the commonly used granitic aggregates. They are also used in road base, structural fill, ballast, drainage, and armor stone.
