- Abstract
The differences between coral sand and siliceous sand have been ignored until the large development of construction in coral area. In order to investigate the influence of physical property on the engineering property for coral sands, this paper reviewed the previous research literatures and summarized the basic physical properties of coral sand for reference. It is found that one of the significant properties of the coral sand is inner void, which makes the density of coral sand particles small and easy to damage under external forces.
