Spanish term

revoltón

Spanish to English Tech/Engineering Construction / Civil Engineering
Hello. From a list of products offered by a construction materials supplier. I think this is a material like gravel, sand etc. as opposed to the architectural feature in a previous Kudoz question. The list looks like this:
Revoltón 18-35
Arena 0-4 lavada (fina)
Revoltón 12-18
Arena 0-6 lavada
Zahorra
Gravilla 4-8 (sondeos)
Áridos de machaqueo según normas
etc etc....
Proposed translations (English)
5 (modular) vault panel
5 aggregate
4 "(Unclassified) Gravel"
4 pebbles
3 small vault

Hi Karen and Esperanza, and thanks for your help. Just to clarify once again, this is not an architectural feature. The context is a list of construction materials. The companies extracts and distributes basic materials such as sand, gravel etc.

Thanks for the clarification Simon I was wrong first time. 'Revolton' can be aggregate, but also decorative pebbles, which are sold by size ie between 18 and 35 mm (British suppliers seem to prefer 20-40 mm)
If these are not decorative, then coarse/fine aggregate would be more appropriate.
