Angular shape particle is use in concrete because this shape is good for aggregate.

This type of particle lead to reduce work ability because there is formation of voids between them therefore there will not have grip between the concrete constituents.

How surface area is depended on work ability?

Rounded shape particles are the most suitable for the high work-ability, but Triangular shape of aggregate is best for high strength b/c of good bonding between cement paste and aggregates.

This type of particle is lead to reduce workability because surface area is more of these particle.

Rounded shape of the agrt are not suitable for any kind of concrete structure. Because there will not have grip between the concrete constituents.
