Sand (Manufactured, Astm C-33, Txdot)
Applications & Uses
Manufactured Sand - ASTM C-33, TxDOT
Manufactured sand meeting ASTM C-33 and TxDOT specifications is a high-quality, finely crushed aggregate produced from durable stone. Unlike natural sand, it is engineered through controlled crushing and screening processes, ensuring consistent particle shape and gradation. This makes it ideal for concrete production, masonry work, and other applications where uniformity and performance are critical.
The manufactured attribute ensures minimal impurities and a reliable, clean product, reducing the risk of deleterious materials in finished concrete. Compliance with ASTM C-33 and TxDOT standards guarantees suitability for both residential and commercial projects, including ready-mix concrete, precast products, and structural applications. Manufactured sand offers excellent workability and compaction, though it may require slightly more water in mixes compared to natural sand. Its consistent quality and availability make it a preferred choice for contractors seeking reliable results.
