The Investigation of Present Aggregate Gradation Control Practices and the Development of Short-cut Or Alternative Test Methods
Author: Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Aggregates (Building materials)
Languages : en
Pages : 120
Book Description
This report covers the first phase of an investigation into current aggregate gradation control practies. It presents the results of a literature search and a survey of current testing procedures and sampling and testing frequencies for various aggregate uses. Summary information is presented on length and method of sample drying; size and number of sieves; length and method shaking; source of the sample (i.e. stockpile, truck, roadway, etc.); and who (producer or consumer) performs the test. Also included are recommendations as to testing and sampling frequencies based on theinformation gathered.

Economic Analysis of Aggregate Gradation Control Programs

Pages : 70
Book Description
This study was conducted to evaluate the relative costs of aggregate gradation control programs used by State highway agencies. The research included review of available literature, an overview of the types of programs used by most State highway agencies in the U.S., and detailed investigations of three actual State programs chosen to be representative of the different approaches. Based on the results of the investigation, a model aggregate gradation control program is developed. The program centers around the concept of quality control by the contractor and quality assurance by the State as a means not only of achieving cost economy but also of minimizing the potential liability of the State with respect to nonconforming materials. The program also incorporates the concept of point of use testing and allowances for testing error and the statistical variations of aggregate gradation. The application of the model program is illustrated in Appendix A.
