The Sharp Sand is a type of sand with larger, angular grains compared to soft building or plastering sand. The grains are typically coarse, gritty, and less uniform in texture. Because of its sharp edges, it doesn't compact as smoothly as fine sand, but this makes it particularly valuable in construction where strength and drainage are important.
