The aggregates price list are indicated below.
OVERVIEW
Granular materials used as a base or sub-base layer in pavement construction are referred to as aggregates. These materials typically include sand, gravel, crushed stone, slag, recycled concrete, and other natural or manufactured substances.
Purpose of aggregates in road construction:
Foundation Support: Aggregates provide a stable foundation for the road surface by distributing the load of traffic and preventing settlement.
Drainage: They help in drainage by allowing water to flow through the layers, reducing the risk of water accumulation and potential damage to the road structure.
Strength and Stability: Aggregates enhance the strength and stability of the road by interlocking with each other and forming a solid base for the pavement layers.
Surface Texture: The size and shape of aggregates influence the surface texture of the road, affecting factors like skid resistance and vehicle traction.
Economy: Using locally available aggregates can reduce construction costs and environmental impacts associated with transportation.
In road construction projects, engineers carefully select and test aggregates to ensure they meet specific requirements for strength, durability, gradation, and other properties necessary for optimal performance of the road infrastructure.

Type
In road construction, aggregates play critical roles in various layers of the pavement structure, including:
Base Course: The base course is the layer directly beneath the surface pavement. It provides structural support and distributes traffic loads to the underlying subgrade. Aggregates used in the base course are typically coarse materials like crushed stone, gravel, or recycled concrete.
Subbase Course: The subbase course is placed on top of the subgrade and below the base course. It serves to improve drainage, provide additional structural support, and help mitigate frost action. Subbase aggregates are usually coarser than those used in the base course and may include materials like crushed rock or gravel.
Bituminous Treatment: Bituminous treatments, such as asphalt or bitumen emulsions, are applied to the surface of the road to provide a waterproof layer, enhance skid resistance, and improve durability. Aggregates are often incorporated into bituminous mixtures to create asphalt concrete, which consists of aggregates bound together by bitumen.
Aggregate Surface: In some road construction projects, aggregates are used as the surface layer of the pavement. This surface treatment, also known as aggregate surfacing or chip sealing, involves applying a layer of aggregate over a bituminous binder. It provides a cost-effective way to improve surface characteristics, seal cracks, and enhance the aesthetics of the road.
Each type of aggregate and pavement layer serves a specific function in the overall performance and longevity of the road infrastructure. Engineers carefully design road pavements to ensure that the materials and construction methods chosen are appropriate for the site conditions and traffic requirements.
