Construction and maintenance of roads require a large volume of aggregates for use in base, sub-base and surface layers.
The volume of aggregates in concrete is approximately 60 75%, and so the concrete performance is strongly affected by the aggregate's properties, proportioning and packing.
The drying shrinkage strain of concrete specimens proportionally increases with the increase of aggregate shrinkage strain, specific surface area and 6 30 nm in diameter pore volume of aggregates, which implies the significant influence of aggregate characteristics on drying shrinkage development in concrete.
These percentages represent the volume of used RAP with respect to the total volume of aggregates (fine and coarse).
The linear variation rule of the theoretical void ratio is governed by the mixture rule of two aggregates, expressed as follows (Bhattacharjee 2014): e = alpha V_{abs} + beta (1 where e is the void ratio; α and β are the coefficients of the void ratio and the form of the grains, respectively, and V abs is the absolute volume of aggregates in 1 m3 of concrete.
The volume of aggregates >50 µm appears to increase from 0.090 w/v for thawed cell broth to 0.120 w/v, this again being possibly due to precipitation as well as liquid entrapment.

A higher volume of aggregate in the mortar mix and a moderate curing time produce optimum Roman cement mortars from the standpoint of reducing the risk of cracking.
Another likely reason for shrinkage increase may be increase in the volume of cement paste and decrease in the volume of aggregate in AE concrete.
These factors include the cement type and content, amount of water, type of admixture, initial wetting conditions, type and volume of aggregate and the partial replacement of normal weight coarse and fine aggregates by lightweight aggregates.
The purpose of this study was to examine the influence of type of the admixtures on porosity and pore size distribution of HPSCC at constant water on cement ratio, type and volume of aggregate and volume of cement paste.
