Properties of Aggregates Test Method Scope Particle Shape and Surface Texture ASTM D (Standard Test Method for Flat Particles, Elongated Particles, or Flat and Elongated Particles in Coarse Aggregate) ASTM C (Standard Test Methods for Uncompacted Void Content of Fine Aggregate (as Influenced by Particle Shape, Surface Texture, and Grading) This test method provides a means for checking compliance with specifications that limit such particles or to determine the relative shape characteristics of coarse aggregates. These test methods cover the determination of the loose, uncompacted void content of a sample of fine aggregate.
Test Specifications for the Different Properties of Aggregates
Properties of Aggregates Test Method Scope Soundness and Durability
ASTM C
(Standard Test Method for Soundness of Aggregates by Use of Sodium Sulfate or Magnesium Sulfate) This test method covers the testing of aggregates to estimate their soundness when subjected to weathering action in concrete or other applications.
Properties of Aggregates Test Method Scope Toughness, Hardness, and Abrasion Resistance ASTM C (Standard Test Method for Resistance to Degradation of Small-Size Coarse Aggregate by Abrasion and Impact in the Los Angeles Machine) ASTM C (Standard Test Method for Resistance to Degradation of Large-Size Coarse Aggregate by Abrasion and Impact in the Los Angeles Machine) This test method covers a procedure for testing sizes of coarse aggregate smaller than 37.5 mm (11/ 2 in.) for resistance to degradation using the Los Angeles testing machine This test method covers testing sizes of coarse aggregate larger than 19 mm (3/4 in.) for resistance to degradation using the Los Angeles testing machine
Test Specifications for the Different Properties of Aggregates
Properties of Aggregates Test Method Scope Specific Gravity and Absorption
ASTM C
[Standard Test Method for Relative Density (Specific Gravity) and Absorption of Coarse Aggregate] ASTM C [Standard Test Method for Relative Density (Specific Gravity) and Absorption of Fine Aggregate] This test method covers the determination of relative density (specific gravity) and the absorption of coarse aggregates. This test method covers the determination of relative density (specific gravity) and the absorption of fine aggregates.
Properties of Aggregates Test Method Scope Gradation
ASTM C
(Standard Test Method for Sieve Analysis of Fine and Coarse Aggregates) This test method covers the determination of the particle size distribution of fine and coarse aggregates by sieving.
Test Specifications for the Different Properties of Aggregates
Properties of Aggregates Test Method Scope Cleanness and Deleterious Materials
AASHTO T
(Standard Method of Test for Plastic Fines in Graded Aggregates and Soils by Use of the Sand Equivalent Test) ASTM C (Standard Test Method for Organic Impurities in Fine Aggregates for Concrete) This test is intended to serve as a rapid test to show the relative proportions of fine dust or claylike material in soils or graded aggregates. This test method covers two procedures for an approximate determination of the presence of injurious organic impurities in fine aggregates that are to be used in hydraulic cement mortar or concrete.
