1. Abrasion- The wearing away of a surface in service by mechanical action, such
as rubbing, scraping or erosion. 2. Abrasion Machine-This machine has been developed for determining the resistance to abrasion/wear of natural stones and concrete products. 3. Aggregates-A material or structure formed from a mass of fragments or particles loosely compacted together. (Oxford,2013) 4. Cement- Any substance as a preparation of glue, red lead, or lime, the hardening of which causes objects between which it is applied to adhere firmly. (Websters,2006) 5. Compressive Strength-the maximum compressive stress that under gradually applied load a given solid material will sustain without fracture (Merriam-Webster,2014) 6. Concrete- a hardened mass; especially, one of sand and gravel or broken stone united by hydraulic cement (Websters,2006) 7. Conventional Concrete 8. Curing- Any method of treating for preservation. (Oxford,2015) 9. Density-Compactness; the closeness of any space distribution (The Engineering Toolbox,2011) 10. Fineness Modulus-A means of evaluating sand and gravel deposits, consisting of passing samples through standardized sets of sieves, accumulating percentages retained, dividing by 100, and comparing the resultant fineness-modulus number to various specification requirements.(Mindat,2014) 11. Lightweight Aggregates-One of several materials used to decrease the unit weight of concrete, thereby reducing the structural load and the cost of the building. 12. Specific Gravity- The ratio of the mass of the body to that of an equal volume of some standard substance, water in the case of solids and liquids, and air or hydrogen in the case of gases.(Websters,2006) 13. Slump Test-a test to determine the relative water content of concrete, depending on the loss in height (slump) of a sample obtained from a cone-shaped mould. (Collins,2008) 14. Universal Testing Machine-include electromechanical series and industrial series to perform static testing, including tensile and compression applications.(Instron,2016) 15. Water-Cement Ratio- The ratio between two substance that can be in terms of weight,volume,etc.(Webters,2006) 16. Workability- the ability of a substance on how easily it can be changed into a new shape. (Mechanical Engineering Org,2011)
