Crushed limestone is a popular option for filling the area between the slab because it keeps the concrete level, prevents settlement cracks, and allows for proper drainage. Driveways When a homeowner likes the idea of a gravel driveway but wants a more colorful option, they often choose limestone aggregate.

Fire Endurance of Limestone Aggregate Concrete. Q: Does limestone aggregate give better fire resistance than other aggregates? A: Carbonate aggregates, of which limestone is one, have generally slightly higher fire resistance than siliceous aggregates. Some gravel aggregates are a mixture of carbonate and siliceous aggregates, and these would

Studies have shown that this thermal stability coupled with limestone’s superior curing properties results in greater crack spacing, and less crack width in limestone concrete slabs. Most concrete is made by mixing a ¼” to 200 mesh (200 wires per inch) sand with aggregate graded from 1 ½” to 3/8” or aggregate graded from 1 ¼” to 3
