AASHTO T 326 2005 Edition, January 1, 2005 Standard Method of Test for Uncompacted Void Content of Coarse Aggregate (As Influenced by Particle Shape, Surface Texture, and Grading)
More info
Description / Abstract:
This method describes the determination of the loose uncompacted
void content of a sample of coarse aggregate. When measured on any
aggregate of a known grading, void content provides an indication
of the aggregate's angularity, sphericity, and surface texture
compared with other coarse aggregates tested in the same
grading.
Three procedures are included for the measurement of void content. Two use graded coarse aggregate (standard grading or as-received grading), and the other uses several individual size fractions for void content determinations:
Standard Graded Sample (Method A)-This method uses a standard coarse aggregate grading that is obtained by combining individual sieve fractions from the maximum density curve drawn from the maximum coarse aggregate size. (See Section 8.)
Individual Size Fractions (Method B)-This method uses each of three coarse aggregate size fractions: (a) 19 mm (¾ in.) to 12.5 mm (½ in.); (b) 12.5 mm (½ in.) to 9.5 mm (3/8 in.); and (c) 9.5 mm (3/8 in.) to 4.75 mm (No. 4). For this method, each size is tested separately.
As-Received Grading (Method C)-This method uses that portion of the coarse aggregate retained on the 4.75-mm (No. 4) sieve.
This standard may involve hazardous materials, operations, and equipment. This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulation limitations prior to its use.
