Coarse Aggregate
Coarse Aggregate Soundness Test
Soundness test determines the deterioration of aggregates due to weathering. This incorporates freezing, defrosting,
marine condition etc. In any case, the feeble and permeable aggregates show a change in weight during the soundness test.
Coarse Aggregate Test
Coarse Aggregate Crushing Value Test
Crushing value test of an aggregate gives an overall proportion of the resistance of an aggregate to crushing under a
progressively applied compressive load.
Coarse Aggregate
Coarse Aggregate Flakiness Index Test
Flakiness index test separates the flaky particles and expresses it as a percentage mass of the total sample and comparing
it with the permissible level.
Coarse Aggregate
Coarse Aggregate Elongation Index Test
It is the percentage by weight of particles whose greatest dimensions are greater than 1.8 times its mean dimensions.
Aggregates having size larger than 6.3mm and less than 63mm applies to this test.
Coarse Aggregate
Coarse Aggregate Ten Percent Fines Value Test
Ten percent fines value is a measure of the resistance of aggregate crushing subjected to loading. The test looks for the forces
required to produce 10% weight of fine aggregates / weight of all aggregates.
Coarse Aggregate
Aggregate Finer Than 75 Microns
This test determines the amount of particles finer than 75micron IS sieve by washing.
Coarse Aggregate
Aggregate Impact Value Test
Aggregate Impact Value is the ability of aggregates that resist sudden impact or shock load on it. Also, it can be
defined as the resistance of aggregate to failure by impact load is known as the Impact Value of Aggregate.
Coarse Aggregate
Aggregate Sieve Analysis Test
A sieve analysis or gradation test determines the distribution of aggregate particles by size within a given sample.
This information can then be used to determine compliance with design and production requirements.
