Crushed or manufactured sand doesn’t contain any marine products or adulterations and is thus safe for use in concrete. Natural sand, depending on where it’s extracted, can contain marine products like grass, clay lumps, shells, mica, algae, and bones, all of which are harmful to concrete.

The dry-process manufactured sand only needs to add 2.23kg/m³ of water-reducing agent, which saves 23% of the water-reducing agent. At this time, the slump of concrete prepared with dry-process manufactured sand is 15mm larger than that of ordinary manufactured-sand concrete. The expansion degree is 65mm larger.

In concrete pavement, it was found by the CCAA (2012) that the free silica limit used in the selection of natural sand to provide good skid and abrasion resistance to concrete pavement does not necessarily apply to manufactured sands. A sand durability test, based on the Micro-Deval abrasion test method, has been found to be effective in

Manufactured sands tend to be used in mixtures in areas where natural sand is not available or not cost effective to be hauled to the needed location. MFA tends to be more angular and flaky due to the crushing process. Highly angular particles tend to increase the paste content of concrete because additional lubrication is required for

Manufactured sand can be considered as a by-product of the process of producing coarse aggregates. When the rock is crushed into small particles, fine aggregates are produced. Due to the increasing demand in the construction sector, there is a difficulty in supplying the rever sand continuously to meet the demand.

Crushed sand can be of coarser and angular texture. This can lead to more water and cement requirement to achieve the expected workability. Manufactured sand can contain larger amounts of micro fine particles than natural sand, This can affect the strength and workability of the concrete. We are also using M-sand for current project.
