Normal weight aggregate yields concrete with unit weights ranging from 23 to 26 KN/m3 and a specific gravity ranging from 2.5 to 2.7. These aggregates have crushing strengths ranging from 15 to 40 MPa at 28 days. Sand, gravel, and crushed rocks such as granite, basalt, quartz, sandstone, and limestone are typical aggregate examples.
