Sea sand is an important resource for future engineering construction. The key to legal resource utilization on sea sand for concrete production lies in sea sand mining, transportation, sales, use and so on, the key issues are the management of sea sand resource, the control standard for sea sand concrete and the detection technology of sea sand control indicators. The article investigates literatures of the sea sand mining management system of the Netherlands, Japan, the United States, the United Kingdom, Israel and India, and sorts out the policy documents on sea sand resource management in China; It compares the Chinese and foreign standards of chloride ion control indicators on sea sand for concrete production, which learns the history in chloride ion control indicators; The advantages and disadvantages of common sea sand chloride ion detection technologies are summarized, and the difficulty in rapid identification of sea sand is pointed out. Based on the investigation of the current application status of sea sand, this article puts forward that China should formulate sea sand resource planning and mining laws as soon as possible, strictly unify the eight existing standards for the control of sea sand in mainland, and recommend to use indicators which specified in "The washed sea sand for construction and municipal engineering " (JG /T 494-2016); It is urgent to accelerate the study of sea sand identification technology and form executable standards. Legal resource utilization on sea sand involves multiple departments, and it is necessary to establish an efficient and powerful management mechanism.
