Description

Ballast aggregate is a coarse-grained, high-density material strategically designed and processed to provide stability and support in construction projects. Composed of crushed stone, gravel, or other durable rock materials. The primary purpose of ballast aggregate is to distribute the load of the overlying structure and prevent the movement of the underlying soil. This makes it an indispensable element in the construction of railways, roads, and various types of foundations.

Key Characteristics:

  1. Density: Ballast aggregate is characterized by its high density, which enhances its ability to resist settling and deformation under the load of structures.
  2. Durability: The materials used in ballast aggregate are chosen for their durability and resistance to weathering, ensuring a long-lasting and reliable foundation for construction projects.
  3. Angular Shape: The angular shape of the aggregate particles interlocks, creating a stable and compact structure that minimizes the risk of settling or shifting.
  4. Cleanliness: High-quality ballast aggregate is free from impurities, ensuring that it meets engineering standards and provides a solid foundation for construction.
