The effect of aggregate strength on concrete strength

The strength of concrete is affected very little by the strength of aggregate particles, except when aggregates are. of lower strength than the strength of the matrix. Just because an aggregate is low density does not mean it is low strength. Some expanded-clay, low-density aggregates are quite strong and have been used to produce concrete with ...
