The effect of geomorphology on the formation and quality of aggregates in Pataq and Qalehshahin catchments by Sh. Bahrami, M. A. Zangeneh Asadi, K. Bahrami, R. Hosseini

“…Extended Abstract1- IntroductionAmong construction materials, aggregates have extensive applications in the production of concrete, mortar, and in the construction of roads, railroads, airports, bridges and dams. Due to weathering, bedrocks are converted to small fragments and then weathered particles would be transported by erosive parameters such as water, wind, glacier and gravity and finally transported materials will be deposited in some geomorphological landforms. …”
