摘要

This chapter provides an examination of the physicalPhysicaland mechanicalMechanical characteristics of GAA, focusing on its roles and performance as a self curingCuring agent. This chapter starts by characterizing this green aggregateGreen aggregate, analyzing their composition, size distribution, shapeShape and surface textureTexture. In parallel, graniteGranite, a conventionalConventional and widely used natural aggregateNatural aggregate, renowned for its durabilityDurabilityand strengthStrength was also examined for comparison. The chapter delves into a comparative study of these materials, highlighting their performance in terms of particle size distributionParticle size distribution, density/specific gravitySpecific gravity, waterWater absorptionabsorptionAbsorption, desorptionDesorptionand textureTextureof aggregatesAggregates. Additionally, their mechanical propertiesMechanical properties, such as Aggregate Crushing ValueAggregate crushing value (ACV) is also explored. This chapter offers valuable insights into how integrating green alternatives and traditional granite to meet the demands of both modern engineering and environmental stewardship particularly to self cured concreteConcrete.
