Coarse aggregates are used in every Construction projects which includes the construction of roads, Buildings, Railway Tracks etc. Coarse Aggregate in concrete was considered as chemically inactive and acts as a filler material only. The coarse aggregates are used for the manufacturing of mortar and concrete.

(FEM) methods. In DEM, irregularly shaped ballast aggregates were simulated by clumping together spheres in appropriate sizes and positions. In FEM, a composite multi-layer track system was simulated and an elasto-plastic model with a non-associative flow rule was used to capture ballast degradation.

Aggregate can be used in a number of ways in construction. In roads and railway ballast the aggregates are used to resist the overall (static as well as dynamic) load, to distribute the load properly to the supporting ground and to drain the water off the surface. In concrete the aggregate is used for economy, reduce shrinkage and cracks and to

The concrete fragments are crushed and the larger particles in the mixture are removed to make the mixture feasible for use. The concrete sand is used widely to level the base for layers, patios, and walking paths. The concrete sand usually consists of fine particles. So it is also used to fill up the voids between coarse aggregates.

For coarse aggregates used in concrete applications, Kansas DOT also requires addi- tional tests for durability (KTMR-22) and wetting and drying (KTMR-23) (Kansas DOT 2017). Alaska DOT runs its own test method (ATM 306) for determining the percentage of flat and elongated particles in coarse aggregate (Alaska DOT 2016).
