New York, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/22/2016 -- Construction aggregates refer to a category of construction materials that includes sand, gravel, slag, stones, recycled concrete, crushed stone, and geosynthetic aggregates. Construction aggregates are extensively mined and used as composite materials for making asphalt and concrete. The main purpose of construction aggregates is to strengthen the composite material that is being used in the construction. Construction aggregates are popularly used in drainage applications, as they have better hydraulic conductivity when compared to soils. Owing to this reason, construction aggregates are used for laying the foundation for septic drain fields, French drains, road side edge drains, and retaining wall drains. These materials are also used as foundation for railroads and roads for preventing differential settling under the construction.

Residential Sector to See Maximum Application of Construction Aggregates

The application of construction aggregates is primarily seen in areas of residential, commercial, residential, infrastructural and industrial construction. According to research analysts, the global construction aggregates market will reach US$468.2 bn by the end of 2021 from US$329.3 bn in 2015, growing at a steady CAGR 6.0% in the next six years. Between 2015 and 2021, the construction aggregates volume in the residential segment will grow at a CAGR of 6.10% by the end of 2021.
