This standard defines concrete pavers as having a surface area no greater than 101 in.2 (0.065 m2), and their overall length divided by thickness, or aspect ratio, does not exceed 4.
Guide to the Specification and uSe of Manufactured Sand in concrete 3 1.1 SCoPe This guide is limited to the use of manufactured sands in portland cement concrete. Manufactured sand can be used in asphaltic concretes and might be used in fills, road bases and filter applications but these applications have not been considered.
Therefore, concrete specifications impose certain limits on the maximum cement content. Reducing the cement content in concrete leads to drawbacks such as reduced workability, excessively high water-cement ratio, and poor durability. ...
