Fine aggregate resources in the Greater Cape Town area have historically been in abundant supply. This supply has been typically comprised of the extensive natural building sand deposits that are scattered throughout the region. However, over the past decade increasing concerns have been raised regarding their long-term availability. This concern has arisen from reports suggesting the diminishing reserves of naturally occurring fine aggregates, which have historically dominated the market, and are beginning to near the end of their reserve life. The research undertaken in this thesis was to assess the plausibility of this concern and ascertain an understanding as to the future supply of resources in the region. In order to address the issues raised, a comprehensive understanding of fine aggregates, their properties and their source are required. This was developed in a literature review, whereby this knowledge provided an understanding as to the type of material that is preferable for fine aggregate use. The findings highlights the importance of using a resource that possesses properties, which are most appropriate for its specific use. In terms of concrete, this is achieved through using materials which possess the following preferred properties: (1) round particle shape and smooth surface texture, (2) a wide range of particle sizes that are well distributed, and (3) a mineralogical composition that is relatively inert, thus is not deleterious in concrete. Additionally, a resource must be economically viable, and be exploited in a manner such that the development aims to safeguard the environment for the benefit of current and future generations. These concepts and principles were then applied to the subsequent study into the fine aggregate resources located within the greater Cape Town region.

Aggregate Resources provides a comprehensive collection of 27 diverse scientific papers on aggregate topics, such as geology of deposits, geophysical exploration techniques, deposit prediction and modeling, land-use case studies, production values and trends, geotechnical properties, legislation politics and others. This diversity in subject matter is further enhanced by relying on contributions from a number of countries including Australia, Belgium, Canada, Lebanon, the Netherlands, Norway, South Africa, the United Kingdom and the United States. The range of topical papers and representative countries, coupled with the global significance of the resources prompted the title Aggregate Resources: A global perspective. The book will appeal to all those involved with aggregate resources: geologists, producers, technicians , construction engineers, developers, land-use planners, legislators, academics and the public consumer, especially since all of us are in some manner, directly dependent or indirectly affected by this resource. *Each chapter is a study on a particular area of importance for aggregate producers.

Bringing together in one volume the latest research and information, this book provides a detailed guide to the selection and use of aggregates in concrete. After an introduction defining the purpose and role of aggregates in concrete, the authors present an overview of aggregate sources and production techniques, followed by a detailed study of their physical, mechanical and chemical properties. This knowledge is then applied to the use of aggregates in both plastic and hardened concretes, and in the overall mix design. Special aggregates and their applications are discussed in detail, as are the current main specifications, standards and tests.
