Sand (Fa-10C)
Applications & Uses
Sand with Fa-10C Attribute
Sand with the Fa-10C attribute is a specialized construction aggregate known for its consistent particle gradation and performance characteristics. The Fa-10C designation typically refers to a specific fineness and cleanliness standard, ensuring the sand is free from excessive silt, clay, and organic impurities. This makes it ideal for applications where material purity and uniformity are critical.
The Fa-10C attribute enhances the sand's workability and bonding properties, making it especially suitable for use in concrete mixes, mortar, and plaster. Its clean, fine texture allows for a smoother finish in masonry and rendering projects, while also improving the strength and durability of finished surfaces. Common uses include residential and commercial concrete work, bricklaying, paving, and as a base for pavers or tiles. The main advantage of Fa-10C sand is its reliable performance and minimal dust, though its fine nature may make it less suitable for drainage or compaction-heavy applications.
