ASTM D3319-11
(Practice)Standard Practice for Accelerated Polishing of Aggregates Using the British Wheel
Standard Practice for Accelerated Polishing of Aggregates Using the British Wheel
SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
This practice simulates the polishing action of vehicular traffic on coarse aggregates used in bituminous pavements.
A polish value is determined that may be used to rate or classify coarse aggregates for their ability to resist polishing under traffic.
SCOPE
1.1 This practice covers a laboratory procedure by which an estimate may be made of the extent to which different coarse aggregates may polish.
1.2 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as the standard.
This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

3.1 Definitions:
3.1.1 initial friction value (PV-i)—the initial British Pendulum Tester readings on the test specimens before they are polished
in the accelerated polishing machine.
3.1.2 polish value (PV-n)—a measure of the state of polish reached by a test specimen subjected to the specified hours (n) of
accelerated polishing using the materials, equipment, and procedures described in this method. The measurement is made using
the British Pendulum Tester as described in 5.3 and Test Method E303.
