The manufactured sand has required gradation of fines, physical properties such as shape, smooth surface textures and consistency which makes it the best sand suitable for construction. These physical properties of sand provides greater strength to the concrete by reducing segregation, bleeding, honeycombing, voids and capillary.

The dry-process manufactured sand only needs to add 2.23kg/m³ of water-reducing agent, which saves 23% of the water-reducing agent. At this time, the slump of concrete prepared with dry-process manufactured sand is 15mm larger than that of ordinary manufactured-sand concrete. The expansion degree is 65mm larger.
