Artificial sand be called manufactured sand or crushed sand, Its source is a quarry. It is manufactured by Crushing rocks, quarry stones or larger aggregate pieces into sand size particles in a factory or quarry.
| Parameters | Artificial Sand(M Sand) | Natural Sand(River Sand) |
|---|---|---|
| Process | Manufactured in factory. | Naturally available on river banks. |
| Shape | The shape of crushed sand is cubical and angular and has a rough texture and hence better for concrete. | Smoother texture with better shape. Demands less water. |
| Concrete Strength | Higher concrete strength compared to river sand used for concreting. | Lesser concrete concrete compared to M Sand |
| Eco Friendly | Though manufactured sand uses natural coarse aggregates to form, it causes less damage to environment as compared to river sand. | Harmful to environment. Eco imbalances, reduce ground water level and rivers water gets dried up. |
| Applications | Highly recommended for RCC purposes and brick/ block works. | Recommended for RCC, plastering and brick/ block work. |
| Quality | Better quality control since manufactured in a controlled environment. | No control over quality since it is naturally occurring. Same river bed sand can have differences in silt contents. |
| Particle passing 75 micron | Up to 15% (IS: 383 - 1970) | Up to 3% (IS:383 - 1970) |
Manufactured sand is produced by passing boulders and stones. It goes through sand making machine for size reduction. Artificial sand making has a bright future in the construction industry. The demand for artificial sand is increasing rapidly. Here are the few reasons why artificial sand making has a good market opportunity in India.
