Description / Abstract:
This method describes the procedure for determining the
durability of aggregates. The durability index is a value
indicating the relative resistance of an aggregate to produce
detrimental claylike fines when subjected to the prescribed
mechanical methods of degradation.
The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the
standard. The values given in parentheses are for information
only.
This standard may involve hazardous materials, operations,
and equipment. This standard does not purport to address all of the
safety concerns associated with its use. It is the responsibility
of the user of this standard to consult and establish appropriate
safety and health practices and determine the applicability of
regulatory limitations prior to use.
