This paper presents the results of laboratory tests on the properties of cement concretecontaining various types of aggregate. The purpose of the tests was to determine the effect of aggregateon compressive strength, indirect tensile strength, air pore characteristics, frost resistance andthe modulus of elasticity of concrete for road surfaces. The aggregate that meets the requirements forroad concrete was determined on the basis of the tests.Keywords: road concrete, frost resistance of aggregate, frost resistance of road concrete.
