The earth’s crust is composed of rocks. Rock is a mineral mass of a more or less uniform composition. It may consist of a single mineral (mono-mineralic) or of several minerals (poly-mineralic).
This document discusses different types of aggregates used in construction. It defines fine aggregates as particles smaller than 4.75mm that pass through a sieve, including sand, crushed stone, ash, and surkhi. Coarse aggregates are larger than 4.75mm but smaller than 7.5mm, such as stone ballast, gravel, brick ballast, breeze, and clinker. The document provides details on sources and properties of common fine aggregates like pit sand, river sand, and sea sand. It also outlines tests to identify clay in aggregates and discusses the use and qualities of various coarse aggregates.
Sandstone is a sedimentary rock formed from compressed sand grains. It is commonly found in stratified rock formations and can vary in color, texture, and grain size depending on its geological composition. Sandstone is classified based on the type of cementing material (calcareous, argillaceous, or ferruginous) that binds the sand grains. It is one of the most abundant rocks on Earth and is widely used for construction materials, countertops, tiles, and as a material for carving. Proper selection of sandstone type is important for its intended use to avoid structural problems.
The document provides information about different types of stones found in Rajasthan, India. It discusses the geological formations where various stones are located. Some key stones mentioned include sandstone, limestone, granite, and marble. The document also describes the processes of quarrying, dressing, carving, finishing, and using stones for construction purposes such as in foundations, columns, and beams. Stones are used for architectural elements like jharokhas, jaalis, railings, and coping. Landscaping uses of stone include benches, signage, and lamps. Different masonry techniques like ashlar, rubble, and slip form stone masonry are also summarized.
Granite, marble, and quartz are compared in terms of their appearance, properties, and applications. Granite has a variety of colors while marble is typically white/gray with veins. Granite is stronger and harder than marble. Both granite and marble are porous stones while quartz is non-porous. Granite is more durable and resistant to acids, making it suitable for kitchens. Marble is softer and more prone to staining, so it is better for areas with less traffic like bathrooms. Granite requires less maintenance than marble.
Stone is an essential and more permanent building material in construction than other natural building materials. Based on the type, stones can be used in buildings for flooring, roofing, masonry, paving roads, and also as aggregates for concrete.
Stones for construction purposes are obtained by quarrying from solid massive rocks. The stones used for masonry construction should be hard, durable, tough, and should be free from weathered soft patches of material, cracks, and other defects that are responsible for the reduction of strength and durability.
This document summarizes information about mudstone and white mica.

8. GRANITE : Granite has been extensively used as a dimension stone and as flooring tiles in public and
commercial buildings and monuments. With increasing amounts of acid rain in parts of the world, granite
has begun to supplant marble as amonument material, since it is much more durable. Polished granite is
also a popular choice for kitchen countertops due to its high durability and aesthetic qualities.
Ruddock Brooklyn Temple Heart Hackenthorpe SANDSTONE :
Sandstone is a sedimentary rock composed mainly of sand-size mineral or rock grains. Most sandstone is
composed of quartz and/or feldspar because these are the most common minerals in the Earth's crust.
Like sand, sandstone may be any color, but the most common colors are tan, brown, yellow, red, gray and
white. Non-friable sandstone can be used to make grindstones for grinding grain, e.g., grit stone
