Standard Specification for Mineral Aggregate Used on Built-Up Roofs

ABSTRACT
This specification covers the standards for the quality and grading of crushed stone, crushed slag, and water-worn gravel intended for use as coarse mineral aggregate on built-up roofs. The crushed stone and gravel shall be hard, durable, opaque, and free of foreign substances. The crushed slag, on the other hand, shall be hard, air-cooled, and free of as well of any foreign particles. The specimens shall comply with the gradation and physical requirements prescribed herein and shall undergo testing which include a gradation test, moisture test, unit mass test, dust, and hardness test.
SCOPE
1.1 This specification covers the quality and grading of crushed stone, crushed slag, and water-worn gravel suitable for use as coarse mineral aggregate on built-up roofs.
1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. The values given in parentheses are for information only.
