In order to solve the problem of workability and durability of concrete caused by poor particle shape and morphology of manufactured sand and high content of stone powder, which leads to crack problems of concrete, the tensile strength, elastic modulus, shrinkage performance and adiabatic temperature rise performance of manufactured sand concrete were studied in this paper.

Manufactured sand is a cube with edges and corners, and the surface is relatively rough, which can increase the bite force between each other, and when it is applied to concrete, it can increase the strength of the concrete. Under the same conditions as other materials, the strength of the concrete prepared with manufactured sand is 2～3MPa

The choice of fine aggregate, whether it is manufactured or natural sand, can greatly impact the fresh concrete properties of a mixture such as the workability, pumpability, and finishability. Natural sand has an ideal shape for use as fine aggregate in concrete. The natural sand particles are well-rounded and are usually nearly spherical.

Higher concrete strength when compared to river sand. Lower concrete strength when compared with M sand. Sand particles of M sand are cubically shaped. This makes bonding strong. Excessive presence of flaky, sharp and angular grains makes bonding weak. Silt content is zero. Silt content is in between 3-20%.

The Civil engineers, Architects, Builders, and Contractors agree that the river sand, which is available today, is deficient in many respect. It does content very high silt fine particles (as in case of Filter sand). Presence of other impurities such as coal, bones, shells, mica and silt etc makes it inferior for the use in cement concrete.

M sand differs significantly in physical and mineralogical properties, as compared to river sand. Here are the main properties of manufactured sand: The shape of this artificial sand is cube-like or angular. It has a rough texture. Thus, it is preferred for making concrete.
