Manufactured Sand is primarily used for Construction Purpose and is produced from Hard Granite Stone by Crushing. As per IS Standards for Concrete and Plaster and even for Coarse Aggregates. This is an Absolute Alternative for River Sand.
Natural Sand does not have any Uniform Particle Size Gradation and can’t be used directly without Sieve and Processing. Natural Sand has Clay, Silt, Bones and Contamination.
Since Manufactured Sand is made from Granite Stone, this is Grey in Colour.
While making Aggregates/Jelly (20mm, 12mm & 40 mm), there are Wastage during Production. This is called CRF (Crushed Rock Fines).
VSI – Vertical Shaft Impactor, is the Stage where every single stone will be Properly Shaped and Grounded. This enables us to achieve the Strength and other Parameters of the Aggregates.
For the Application of Concrete, as per IS: 383 Reaffirmed 19__ Standard.
150 microns is finer particles, it should not be more than 15 % percentage. VR Sands maintains less than 15 %.
CRF – Crushed Rock Fines are 30% of the Crushed Powder Wastage while making Aggregates, this will not fair as per IS 383 Standard.
Plaster Sand is Manufactured Primarily for Plastering Purpose.
M Sand is applicable for Concrete. It Confirms IS 383 Standard. This will be having Coarser Sand with certain Percentage (below 4.75 mm). Plaster Sand will be starting from 2.36 mm.
M Sand is meant for Concrete, the Particle Size passing for M Sand and Plaster Sand is different.
This can be directly used as 100% Alternate Substitute to River Sand.
We can achieve better Surface Finish than River Sand. This is manufactured as per the Standard. Uniformity of Particle Size distribution is in Plaster Sand.
Excess of 150 microns will lead to Crack Formation after Completion of Project.
