M Sand or Manufactured sand is an Eco-friendly & economical alternative for river sand, which has become widely popular for use in all constructional purposes. It is manufactured by crushing huge rocks & boulders to fine sand particles. Three different types of m sand are manufactured which fulfill the Indian Standards set by the BIS.

Bureau of Indian Standards ( BIS ) Guidelines IS: 383-1970 for selection and testing of Coarse and Fine aggregates available. Generally, Sand is classified as Zone I, Zone II, Zone III and Zone IV (i.e. Coarser to Finer). There is sieve designation for each zone. Gradation is made in accord with the usage of the sand. There are

Fineness Modulus of Fine Aggregate: The sand fineness module (fine aggregate) is an index number describing the mean size of sand particles. By doing sieve analysis with normal sieves, it is measured.. The accumulated percentage kept on each sieve is applied and the sum of the fine aggregate is subdivided by 100. To find the fine aggregate fineness modulus, we require 4.75mm, 2.36mm, …

An example provided in the ACI 211 standard states that, "For a fine aggregate having a fineness modulus of 2.8 and a 37.5mm nominal maximum size of coarse aggregate, the table indicates that 0.71m3 of coarse aggregate, on a dry-rodded basis, may be used in each cubic meter of concrete. The required dry mass is, therefore, 0.71 x 1600 = 1,136kg."

Indian Standards for alternative materials to natural sand and other natural resources Today Indian Standards are copiously used for ensuring quality of construction of buildings and other structures, which are now-a-days largely dependent on concrete constructions. Bureau of Indian Standards, the National

Fine aggregates consist of River sand, M-sand or the Slag sand used for construction. Coarse aggregates are the fillers in concrete mixes. It is offered in 6 mm, 12 mm, 20 mm and 40 mm sizes in India. Coarse aggregates are also recognized as blue metal, jelly, and crushed stone.

For a good fine aggregate, the FM should be between 2.3and 3.1 (ASTM Range for fine aggregates). 5­ A FM of 4 can be interpreted to means that the fourth sieve from bottom i.e. sieve No. 16 is the average size of the aggregate particles in the given sample.

Fineness modulus of sand (fine aggregate) is an index number which represents the mean size of the particles in sand. It is calculated by performing sieve analysis with standard sieves. The cumulative percentage retained on each sieve is added and subtracted by 100 gives the value of fineness modulus. Fine aggregate means the aggregate which ...
