The Effect of Aggregate Size on the Interfacial Transition Zone in Concrete

This Final Year Project is about the effect of aggregate size on the interfacial transition zone in concrete. Concrete is a construction material that consists of cement, commonly Portland cement, aggregate (generally gravel and sand) and water. Concrete is strong in compression but it is extreme...
