The Dependence of Physical Mechanical Properties of Concrete Pavement Blocks on Coarse Aggregate Type

The aim of this research is to determine the dependences of the physical mechanical properties of vibropressed concrete (pavement blocks) on the type of coarse aggregate used in the main layer. Sustainability of concrete pavement blocks is a really important matter. Five different batches of pavemen...
