River sand 1st class

River sand is the cleanest, safest and highest quality material without foreign impurities in comparison with any analogues. Plus, it is versatile in its application – it is great for road and construction work, for landscaping and even for filling sandboxes.

River sand has round-shaped particles, due to which it has special properties and characteristics, it does not contain clay and other impurities.

From a chemical point of view, it is silicon dioxide with the formula SiO2. The color of the sand depends on where it was mined, but mostly it is yellow, white and gray.

It is characterized by the following advantages:

Environmentally friendly;
It is resistant to the influence of a wide variety of aggressive environments;
Waterproof;
It has good sound insulation properties;
It is resistant to rotting processes.
An excellent option for paving sidewalks, landscaping and creating mortars. The loose, homogeneous, quartz composition complies with GOST. Suitable for design and construction tasks.

A very important parameter of river sand is the specific gravity, consisting of bulk and true density. In the river species, it ranges from 1200 to 1700 kg/m3.

It is extracted from rivers, and the specific method will depend on the depth of the river. It can be extracted from deep-sea places only with the help of a dredger. Its design includes complex hydromechanical equipment consisting of pumps, sieves, and reservoirs.

The extraction procedure is carried out in several stages:

First, the rippers sink to the bottom and they suck in the sand.;
Then, through a pulp pipeline, the sand is lifted to the surface of the barge, stacked on a hydraulic dump with a drainage system.
Then the sand is cleaned by the dry method and transferred to a separate barge.
It should be noted that the material is extracted from the beds of dried-up rivers in the same way as quarry sand.

Compared to the sea, they have a lot in common, and they are often confused. However, they can only be compared after a two-stage cleaning of the sea sand, which significantly increases its cost. Therefore, the difference will be noticeable only in the price.

River sand has a lot of differences with quarry sand, and they are not interchangeable. Quarry coal always has a lot of organic impurities, and it cannot be used in some jobs.

Today, several types of river sand are isolated, and depending on them, they are used in construction and other work.

Washed
It is a natural material with a smooth texture, gray or yellow in color. It always contains silicon and iron oxide. It does not have particularly large or particularly small fractions – all particles are of average size. The material got this name due to the fact that it is washed by a natural stream of water, which makes it rounded and removes all unwanted impurities.

Coarse-grained
This type of sand has only a large fraction and is valued more than its medium- and fine-grained counterparts, therefore it will cost more. Such sand is extracted from the bed of dried-up rivers, and it is used in a wide variety of areas of human activity.

Despite the fact that these two varieties are the main and most in demand, there are other types of river sand. For example, clay, medium- and fine-grained, powdery, and so on. They may differ in the volume of incoming impurities, fractions, and other criteria.
