Abstract
Particle packing properties are important to develop high technology products in the field of cement and concrete. Two types of particle packing models for aggregates with sand and cement were introduced: the loose and the dense aggregate packing. Aggregate packing models with randomly generated sand and cement particles in the interstices of aggregates fit the Furnas model very well. Different aggregate models show different packing properties with the experimental results. Main reason for the difference with the experimental results is due to sand rearrangement in the loose aggregate packing model and to aggregate relaxation in the dense aggregate packing model. In the experimental situation, aggregates seem to be more disordered and have a relaxed packing structure in the dense packing, and sands seem to have a more rearranged packing structure in the loose packing model.
