RE:Aggregate is construction quality C1,C2,F1 and others!GREAT POST Stockstar! I read the 43-101 and this is in direct contrast to the posts made by Bulltrap and others. The aggregate quality is of the highest construction grade and more importantly it is of a grade that is suitable for coastal environments and marine builds. This is fantastic because it supports port and bridge builds. It also supports underwater pipe lines. I never thought to look for the quality in the 43-101. Thanks for posting. Like you always said, your mission here is to bust myths and you just shattered this one!

I just got a PM from a guy who supposedly spoke with IR today. He told me that the aggregate quality can be found in the 43-101 which is posted on the HBK website. HBK has concrete construction grade aggregate for C1,C2,F1 and other classes. The 3 classes named represent the strongest construction concrete. The size of the crush size will determine the final use of the aggregate. The smaller the crush the better the aggregate for concrete. This is of course normal because as you crush it you eliminate the natural fractures and cracks that weaken the stone. So, you can all go read the HBK 43-101 for details. It is there in black and white. Stop listening to posters who get their information from disgruntled X-employees!
