The crush resistance test is used to determine a “K Value,” which is the pressure at which 10% or more of the sand starts to break into fines. High quality frac sand often has K values of 5K, 8K, 9K. Resin coated frac sand and ceramic proppants have even higher K values.

WhatsAppGet PriceGet A QuoteWhen crush strength is exceeded, the grain breaks and produces pieces, or fines. The fines are weighed as a percent of the grain size to calculate a k-value that designates the level of crush resistance. High-quality sand with an 8K value means that at 8,000 psi, it produces no more than 10% fines by weight.

In the case of dense sands, peak value of in-plane strain can be 4° or 5° higher than the corresponding value obtained by conventional triaxial tests. This increase is negligible in the case of loose sands.

The compressive strength as well as the flexural strength of concrete made from crushed sand is higher than natural sand. Crushed sand is also eco-friendly because it causes less damage to the environment as compared to natural sand.
