The aim of the research is improving the quality of concrete by using the alternative aggregate resources and recycling wastes. To make a combined aggregate fitted in standard particle size distribution curve, crushed sand from blasted rock debris was used as a base aggregate. Additionally, to increase the portion of fine particles, sea sand was mixed. Although these aggregate combination fit the standard particle size distribution curve, in this research, raw coal ash was replaced as a microfine. According to the experiment, by replacing 5% raw coal ash, the most favorable results were achieved in aggregate gradation and cement mortar quality.
