The quantity of sand in concrete is rather small (if not nonexistent).
Sand is not the primary component of concrete, and has little to no effect on the final colourway.Wait, what?

LOL maybe it is in quikrete.I don't know about color, but sand is the primary component of concrete.
Hey look at that, twice as much coarse aggregate as sand, just like I said. Why would you link to something that refutes your argument?
Color is added to concrete through the addition of pigments. The color of the cement dominates completely, as it is not opaque and completely coats any aggregate, fine or coarse, that is part of the concrete mix. No more sand than anywhere else in the world can be used or it's mortar.The point being local materials are being used, naturally it will pick up the color of the local terrain
Concrete can be made without sand, it's just not common.You both lose to some extent using that calc, it makes up a small but decent amount. Reno added "if not nonexistant" and Vanster said "primary"
Now can we get off this dumb argument and go back to dubai sucking
It must have been a terrifying moment for visitors to the world's tallest tower, which only opened last month.
They heard what sounded like a small explosion, then saw dust that looked like smoke seeping through a crack in an elevator door 124 floors above the ground.
Inside an elevator, 15 people were trapped for 45 frightening minutes until rescuers managed to pry open the doors.
Outside on the observation deck, about 60 more people were stranded and some began to panic.
I've been to Doha and they have some crazy ass architecture there too. I dont see the need, I know they can only fill so many of those offices with princes and other "royal" lackeys.
we were forbidden to take any pictures, so I'll post the ones I took later
