Objective and Significance: – Impact value of the aggregates is useful to understand the strength of the concrete against impact. If aggregates are used in road construction, then are subject to get impact due to heavy road traffic. This causes crushing the aggregates and hence aggregates impact value is important to find out. The aggregate […]

Objective and Significance: – Abrasion Test is the measure of aggregate toughness and abrasion resistance such as crushing, degradation and disintegration. While using the aggregates in construction of roads, then they get wear out due to Traffic. Tires of vehicles and small soil particles on road creates abrasion to the road. This causes wearing out

Objectives and Significance:- Water absorption gives an idea on the internal structure of aggregate. Aggregates having more absorption are more porous in nature and are generally considered unsuitable, unless found to be acceptable based on strength, impact and hardness tests. Aim: – Aim of this test is to determine the water absorption of coarse aggregates.
