The percentage passing 150 microns of manufactured sand is relaxed to 20% (while that of natural sand is limited to 10%). As per design and economics, crushed sand can be used to partially or fully replace river sand from a concrete mix. The Availability of crushed sand is not a concern as it can be manufactured from rocks in any season.

Hence durable concrete covers and bears the responsibility of sustaining the entire R.C.C. structure throughout it service life. A well processed manufactured sand as partial or full replacement to river sand is the need of the hour as a long term solution in Indian concrete industry until other suitable alternative fine aggregate are developed.

Manufactured sands tend to be used in mixtures in areas where natural sand is not available or not cost effective to be hauled to the needed location. MFA tends to be more angular and flaky due to the crushing process. Highly angular particles tend to increase the paste content of concrete because additional lubrication is required for

The dry-process manufactured sand only needs to add 2.23kg/m³ of water-reducing agent, which saves 23% of the water-reducing agent. At this time, the slump of concrete prepared with dry-process manufactured sand is 15mm larger than that of ordinary manufactured-sand concrete. The expansion degree is 65mm larger.

Crushed sand can be of coarser and angular texture. This can lead to more water and cement requirement to achieve the expected workability. Manufactured sand can contain larger amounts of micro fine particles than natural sand, This can affect the strength and workability of the concrete. We are also using M-sand for current project.

First, manufactured sand is more uniform in structure compared with natural sand. It also has an advantage when it comes to concrete production, because manufactured sand is less needed in the concrete mix by a margin of 5 to 20% compared with natural sand to fill the voids volume between the particles.
