Rock aggregates constitute the enormous volume of inert construction material used around
the globe. The petrologic description as igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic types …

This paper examines the effect of the aggregate type on concrete strength, and more
specifically, how the petrographic characteristics of various aggregate rocks as well as their …

This study examines the mineralogy, texture, and weathering grades of intrusive igneous
rocks from northern Pakistan, as well as their impacts on physical and strength properties. In …

This work is the first attempt to study the possibility of incorporating three different types of
Egyptian serpentine aggregates (antigorite, lizardite and chrysotile) with different …

The Edessa ophiolite complex of northern Greece consists of remnants of oceanic
lithosphere emplaced during the Upper Jurassic-Lower Cretaceous onto the Palaeozoic …

The size, shape, gradation and appearance of aggregate have a significant impact on the
road performance of asphalt mixtures, which is directly related to the deformation …

This study investigates how the petrographic features of Klepa Nafpaktias sandstones affect
their behavior in construction applications such as concrete, in environmental applications …

Aggregates are essential in the production of composite building materials and their
properties and characteristics influence the performance of these materials in use …

This paper investigates the interrelationships between the engineering properties of igneous
aggregate rocks from Greece with the aid of the R-mode factor analysis. The collected …

This study focuses on the use of petrology as a useful tool in construction applications (ie,
concrete). More specifically, this study investigates how the petrogenetic characteristics of …
