Sieve analysis.
Each type of aggregate test
requires a specified aggregate
size -e.g. 10-12.5 mm for
crushing test)
Each bituminous mix type has a
recommended
aggregate
gradation (% passing 26.5 mm
in 55-90 for GSB1)
So aggregate is passed
through a set of sieves to
get material of various
sizes

Strength assessment.
Provides a relative measure of
resistance to crushing under a
gradually applied compressive
load.
Low aggregate crushing value are
preferred.

for 10 minutes (up to 40 T)
Indirect measure of crushing strength
Low value indicate strong aggregates
Surface course need more strength
than base course
Should not exceed 30% for cement
concrete surface ,and 45% for others

Specific gravity
It is measure of strength or quality of stone.
Low specific gravity weaker aggregates.
Higher water absorption porous and thus weak.

Cutback:
The viscosity of bitumen reduced
volatile diluents: slow, medium, rapid curing.
by
Emulsion:
Bitumen is suspended in finely divided condition
in an aqueous medium and stabilized with an
emulsifier : slow, medium, rapid setting.
Used in prime coat and tack coat.
