If the round aggregates are used the gap will be form. So, we are using Angular aggregates.

Irregular or angullar are more preferred than rounded.

90% angular aggregates are prefered if not irregular aggregates are preferred.

In-front of rounded, the angular consume more surface area.

In case of work ability, rounded are better than angular while in case of bonding, Angular is best but overall angular aggregates are good. So for this particular question. Rounded is correct answer.

Since the rounded aggregates need least water cement ratio hence it is preferred for in case of workability. But angular has interlocking pattern that rounded lack and hence in case of bonding angular is better.

@Ajeet & @Bakum.
Thanks for clarification between both rounded and angular one.

Angular aggregate is best option than rounded aggregate. But the rounded aggregate is also used so, I agree.
