(Specification)Standard Specification for Coarse Aggregate for Bituminous Paving Mixtures
Standard Specification for Coarse Aggregate for Bituminous Paving Mixtures
ABSTRACT
This specification covers coarse aggregates such as crushed stone, crushed hydraulic-cement concrete, crushed blast-furnace slag, crushed gravel, crushed expanded shale, crushed expanded clay, and crushed expanded slate suitable for use in bituminous paving mixtures. The aggregates shall consist of hard, strong, durable pieces, free of coherent coatings. They shall be sampled for testing, and shall conform to physical requirements as to bulk density, composition for both conventional and open graded friction course mixtures, polishing characteristics, soundness, and degradation behavior.
SCOPE
1.1 This specification covers crushed stone, crushed hydraulic-cement concrete, crushed blast-furnace slag, crushed gravel, crushed expanded shale, crushed expanded clay, and crushed expanded slate suitable for use in bituminous paving mixtures, as described in Specifications D 3515 or D 4215.
Note 1—Other slags having demonstrated a satisfactory service record may be used.
1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. Inch-pound units, shown in parentheses, are for information only.
1.3 The text of this standard references notes and footnotes which provide explanatory material. These notes and footnotes (excluding those in tables and figures) shall not be considered as requirements of the standard.
