The paper summarizes research concerning the shape of crushed rock particles for use as aggregate. Although the importance of the shape of crushed rock aggregate particles is recognised, information on the control of particle shape during crushing operations is said to be lacking in published literature. Also discussed is the possible development of software, for the control of aggregate processing plant, which could incorporate a particle shape factor.
