The mechanical properties of coarse aggregates include crushing value, impact value, polished stone value, abrasion value, and soundness. The properties of fine aggregates mainly include different densities, unit weight, void ratio, angularity, fineness modulus and sand equivalency.

The following tests which are primarily conducted on coarse aggregates to determine its physical and mechanical properties are given below: Sieve Analysis. Aggregate Crushing test. Aggregate Impact test. Aggregate Abrasion test. Shape test (Flakiness index test and Elongation index test) Soundness test. Specific gravity and …

Aggregates for Concrete as per American Standards – ASTM [PDF] The aggregates used in the production of concrete are inert granular materials such as gravel, crushed stone, sand, slag, recycled concrete, and geosynthetic aggregates. The aggregates may be natural, manufactured, or recycled. Fig 1: Aggregates used in production of concrete.

This Part of BS 812 describes a method for the determination of the aggregate crushing value (ACV) which gives a relative measure of the resistance of an aggregate to crushing under a gradually applied compressive load. The method is applicable to aggregates passing a 14.0 mm test sieve and retained on a 10.0 mm test …

This report summarizes the results of a sieve analysis test performed on samples of fine and coarse aggregates. Sieve analysis was used to determine the particle size distribution of each aggregate by separating particles …

The tested aggregates are compacted and compressed in a cylinder by a plunger without lateral deformation. After loading to 400 kN, the aggregates are sieved, and the percentage of the crushed aggregates passing through a 2.36-mm sieve is the crushing value.

The aggregate crushing value is defined as the percentage of grains crushed into grains smaller than ¼ of the lower sieve size of a given fraction. The ACV can be used to classify the aggregate and assess its suitability for the proper concrete.

For naturally obtained basaltic parent rock, aggregate crushing plant in three different sites around Arba Minch were established, considering the availability of aggregate products of the study area and to approve its suitability, the physical tests of aggregate were conducted by the research team using Sieve test, Impact test, Aggregate ...

Aggregates for Concrete as per American Standards – ASTM [PDF] The aggregates used in the production of concrete are inert granular materials such as gravel, crushed stone, sand, slag, recycled concrete, and …

a hlg 3 er aggregate than 12.5 mm - crushing value, In general, the larger sizes of aggregate will give but the relationship between the values obtained with different sizes will vary from one aggregate to another.

The aggregate crushing value test (ACV, BS 812-Part-110) is one of the test methods for determining the crushing resistance of the aggregates. Alvarado et al. [ 4] and Reyes et al. [ 5] concluded that the ACV test was practical, reproducible, and stable and is a pivotal method in the evaluation of aggregate crushing resistance.

IS 383:2016 covers Coarse and Fine Aggregate for Concrete which are categorized as under: as below :Fine aggregate : Grading zone - Zone I / Zone II/ Zone III/ Zone IV Coarse aggregate : Single Size – 10 mm, 12.5 mm, 16 mm, 20 mm, 40 mm & 63 mm Graded aggregate – 12.5 mm, 16 mm, 20 mm & 40 mm For Mass Concrete – Small / Medium / …

It is a measure of the resistance of aggregate crushing subjected to loading and it is applicable to both weak and strong aggregate. Fine aggregates are defined as those passing 2.36 mm sieve.

Aggregate Crushing test (IS 2386 (Part 4):1963 & BS 812 – 110:1990) Aggregate crushing test values indicates the strength of aggregate and hence it is very significant. Similarly we can say …

The 10% fines value is a metric that gauges the ability of aggregates to withstand crushing under loading, and it is applicable to both weak and strong aggregates. Fine aggregates are those that pass through a 2.36mm sieve. This test seeks to determine the amount of force required to produce 10% of fine values, which is expressed as the …

Sieve analysis determines the gradation or distribution of aggregate particle sizes within a given sample.

The aggregate crushing value gives a relative measure of the resistance of an aggregate to crushing under a gradually applied compressive load. Crushing value is a measure of the strength of the aggregate. The aggregates …

Then crushed aggregates are then sieved through 2.36 mm sieve and weight of passing material () is expressed as percentage of the weight of the total sample () which is the aggregate crushing value.

The material for the standard test shall consist of aggregate passing a 12.5 mm IS Sieve and retained on a 10 mm IS Sieve, and shall be thoroughly separated on these sieves before testing.

This action crushes the aggregate to a degree which is dependent on the aggregate's crushing resistance. This degree is assessed by a sieving test on the crushed specimen and is taken as the Aggregate Crushing Value.

The crushing characteristics of coarse aggregates for asphalt concrete were investigated under static and dynamic aggregate crushing value tests (ACVTs). The effect of various compaction loads was also examined by using a Marshall hammer, gyratory compactor and steel roller. Six types of coarse aggregates were tested, …

The crushed aggregate is removed and sieved on a 2.36 mm I.S. sieve. The material passing through this sieve is collected and weighed. The aggregate crushing value is obtained by the following expression: A g g r e g a t e c r u s h i n g v a l u e = W 1 W 2 × 100. Where W2 = Total weight of the dry sample.

Sieve analysis helps to determine the particle size distribution of the coarse and fine aggregates.This is done by sieving the aggregates as per IS: 2386 (Part I) – 1963. In this we use different sieves as standardized by the IS code and then pass aggregates through them and thus collect different sized particles left over different sieves ...
