  EFFECTS OF AGGREGATE TYPE SIZE AND CONTENT ON

  There is strong evidence that aggregate type is a factor in the strength of concrete. Ezeldin and Aitcin 1991 compared concretes with the same mix proportions containing four different coarse aggregate types. They concluded that in high strength concretes higher strength coarse aggregates typically yield higher
