Greater is the aggregate crushing value, softer is the aggregate sample and vice versa. This is suggestive of the fact that the resistance of aggregates to crushing is less. Therefore, the strength of such a sample is also less. Aggregates having relatively less ACV can be used in wearing surfaces of pavements. 2)Hardness
Strength of coarse aggregates is difficult to measure. While we talk about the strength of coarse aggregates it refers to the crushing strength of the aggregate itself. However, the required information on strength of coarse aggregates can be obtained from indirect tests: crushing strength of prepared rock samples, crushed value of bulk
Aggregate crushing value is defined as the percentage by weight of the crushed (or finer) material obtained when the test aggregates are subjected to a specified load under standardized conditions, and the strength of the aggregate used in road construction is expressed by numerical index. Aggregates with lower crushing value show a lower
d) Determination of Aggregate Abrasion Value, e) Determination of the Polished Stone Value, and f) Determination of Crushing Strength. 2. DETERMINATION OF AGGREGATE CRUSHING VALUE 2.1 Object
The other properties affecting the strength of the concrete are specific gravity, soundness, and so on. In conclusion, Size, Contents, Shape and Texture, Size Distribution, and Moisture content of aggregate are the main factors that affect the strength of the concrete mix. The size and contents of the aggregate are insignificant and
The aggregate crushing strength value is useful factor to know the behaviour of aggregates when subjected to wear. 1. Crushing Test of Aggregate: 24. 25 The aggregate impact value gives a relative measure of the resistance of an aggregate to sudden shock or impact. The impact value is some times used as an alternative to its crushing value. 2.
Aggregate used in road construction, should be strong enough to resist crushing under traffic wheel loads. If the aggregates are weak the stability of the pavement structure is likely to be adversely affected. The strength of coarse aggregates is assessed by aggregate crushing test.
AGGREGATE CRUSHING VALUE 1.Objective The aggregate crushing value gives a relative measure of the resistance of an aggregate to crushing under a gradually applied compressive load. With aggregate of aggregate crushing value 30 or higher, the result may be anomalous, and in such cases the ten percent fines value should be determined instead.
The aggregates crushing value test should be performed as per IS code 2386 Part IV. First, fill the sample aggregate with one-third of the cylindrical measure in three layers. Each layer should be tamped 25times freely. After filling the sample aggregate, weigh and record it as W1. Now fill the aggregate in the mould along with the plunger on top.
Greater is the aggregate crushing value, softer is the aggregate sample and vice versa. This is suggestive of the fact that the resistance of aggregates to crushing is less. Therefore, the strength of such a sample is also less. Aggregates having relatively less ACV can be used in wearing surfaces of pavements. 2)Hardness

The strength and the stiffness of coarse aggregate directly influence the behavior of hardened concrete. Although in normal concrete, strength is controlled by the paste or by the transition zone between paste and aggregate, the strength of high-performance concrete depends not only on the strength but on the mineralogy of coarse aggregate as well
Procedure for crushing strength of aggregate. Before testing, the aggregate should be in surface dry condition.You can achieve the dry condition of aggregate by placing aggregates in an oven for 4 hours at 100-degree Celcius. The aggregates passing through 12.5mm and retained on 10mm IS sieves are selected for finding aggregate crushing strength.
compressive strengths, while in normal-strength concretes, coarse aggregate strength has little effect on compressive strength. Other research has compared the effects of limestone and basalt on the compressive strength of high-strength concrete (Giaccio, Rocco, Violini, Zappitelli, and Zerbino 1992). In concretes containing basalt, load
The crushing strength or aggregate crushing value of a given road aggregate is found out as per IS-2386 Part- 4. The aggregate crushing value provides a relative measure of resistance to crushing under a gradually applied compressive load. To achieve a high quality of pavement aggregate possessing low aggregate crushing value should be preferred.
provide high values of strength [iii]. Several researchers studied the influence of various types of aggregates on the strength of structural concrete. Reference [iv] studied the effect of aggregate size on the softening branch of concrete by conducting the uniaxial, bi-axial and tri-axial
Aggregate crushing test is done to find out the strength of aggregate which is the fundamental and essential components of concrete, flexible pavements, etc. More than 70 to 80 per cent of the volume of concrete is aggregate. Aggregates are a very important component of concrete, so the quality really matters when it comes to aggregates.
To Determine Crushing Strength of given Aggregate- Concrete Practical. Aggregate is a granular material, such as sand, gravel, crushed stone, crushed hydraulic-cement concrete, or iron blast-furnace slag, used with a hydraulic cementing medium to produce either concrete or mortar. Those particles that are predominantly retained on the 4.75 mm
Aggregate crushing value gives the Crushing strength of aggregate up to which it can bear the load without fail. To conduct crushing strength test we need compression testing machine, cylindrical measure, plunger and Isa sieves. First sieve the sample aggregate, aggregate passing 12.5mm sieve and retaining 10mm sieve is oven dries at 100-110 o
Aggregate crushing value is a numerical index of the strength of the aggregate and it is used in construction of roads and pavements. Crushing value of aggregates indicates its strength. Lower crushing value is recommended for roads and pavements as it indicates a lower crushed fraction under load and would give a longer service life and a more

Aggregate properties significantly affect the workability of plastic concrete and also the durability , strength, thermal properties, and density of hardened concrete. This Bulletin describes types of aggregates normally used in concrete, aggregate properties affecting performance of the concrete, tests used to measure aggregate properties, and
