In the post-war period, Ukraine will need a large number of aggregates to repair and rebuild destroyed and damaged objects of transport infrastructure, including roads, airfields, and parking lots. To expand the raw material base of such construction, in addition to traditional high-quality aggregates from crushed granite, quartz sand and manufactured sand, it is advisable to use some types of waste and secondary products from various industries. They must meet the basic requirements for density, strength, frost resistance. These include a by-product of iron ore mining, quartzite. The use of quartzites as aggregates for cement concretes has certain difficulties due to their characteristics. This is reflected, first of all, on the strength of the concretes in which they are included. In this article, the features of the influence of quartzite aggregates on the strength of cement concretes are considered. Studies that have been carried out on mixtures of different mobility have shown that dusty particles, which are part of quartzite, have a positive effect on the structure of concrete.
