Principle of the Test: To produce the abrasive action by use of standard steel balls which when mixed with the aggregate and rotated in a drum for specific number of revolution cause impact on aggregate. The %age wear due to rubbing with steel balls is determined and is known as abrasion value. Prepare the sample by the portion of an …
Procedure. The aggregates used for this test should pass through IS 12.5 mm sieve and should retain on IS 10 mm sieve. ... If the total weight (B+C) is less than the initial weight (A), the result shall be discarded and a fresh test made. Aggregate Impact Value (AIV) = B/A x 100. Where B = weight of aggregate passing through 2.36 mm sieve.
1.1 These test methods cover the determination of the Impact Value (IV) of a soil either in the field or a test mold, as follows: 1.1.1 Field Procedure A— Determination of IV alone, in the field. 1.1.2 Field Procedure B— Determination of IV and water content, in the field. 1.1.3 Field Procedure C— Determination of IV, water content, and ...
The ASTM C39 test standard for compressive strength of concrete cylinders requires numerous checks for dimensions of the concrete cylinders and alignment during testing. The manual instructs and illustrates acceptable practices to properly perform these measurements. C39 gives basic requirements for concrete compression testing …
