Crushing Value Test of Aggregates – Importance, Procedure, and Standard limits. The aggregate crushing value test on coarse aggregates gives a relative measure of an aggregate under a gradually applied compressive load. It is a numerical index of the strength of the aggregates. This test is helpful in the construction of roads and pavements.

2.1. Aggregate Crushing Value . Coarse aggregate crushing value is the percentage by weight of the crushed material obtained when test aggregates are subjected to a specified load under standardized conditions. It is a numerical index of the strength of the aggregate and it is used in construction of roads and pavements.
The aggregate crushing value is a crucial essential index to evaluate a material’s crushing resistance based on current specifications for road base construction. In this study, the addition of brick or mortar reduced the aggregate crushing value, causing difficulties in reusing CDW for high-quality road bases.
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.
EXPERIMENT NO 2 Crushing value of aggregate
It is recommended that the crushing value of aggregate should be less than 30%. If it is more than 30 % then 10% finer aggregate is suggested to use. The aggregate whose crushing value is less than 30% can be used for cement concrete road. The aggregate whose crushing value is less than 40% can be used for wearing surface.
Name of the experiment: Aggregate Crushing value test. Objective: 1. Determine the aggregate crushing value of coarse aggregate. 2. Assess suitability of coarse aggregates for use in different types of road. Theory: The “aggregate crushing value” give a relative measure of the resistance of an aggregate to crushing under gradually applied
Aggregate crushing value of material A is 40 and that of B is 25. Which one is better ~nd why? What are the applications of aggregate crushing test? What are the recommended maximum values of aggregate crushing value for the aggregates to be used in base and surface courses of cement concrete? What are the uses and applications of the aggregate
Discussions: Aggregate crushing value of 30 percent and above is not good for road construction, hence in case of Arba Minch natural aggregate the determined ACV was 8.75% which is too less than 30% indicating the good resistance of aggregate to the applied load.

Then crushed aggregates are then sieved through 2.36 mm sieve and weight of passing material (W2) is expressed as percentage of the weight of the total sample (W1) which is the aggregate crushing value. Aggregate crushing value = (W1/W2)*100. A value less than 10 signifies an exceptionally strong aggregate while above 35 would normally be
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

12. Crushing value of aggregate. Determination of the crushing value of an aggregate is helpful to find the compressive strength of the aggregate, whether it is suitable for the concrete work or not. One of the important properties of aggregates affects the overall strength of the structure. 13. Impact value of aggregate
Bullas and West [4] reported the aggregate impact value did not, but the aggregate crushing value did separate suitable and unsuitable aggregate for bitumen macadam roadbase. Fookes, Gourley and Ohikere [5] recommended that combinations of physical tests such as impact, crushing and abrasion resistance be used to assess aggregate durability.
“Aggregate crushing value is determined by taking a percentage of weight crushed aggregate sample passing through 2.36 mm IS Sieve divided by weight of aggregate sample taken for test” Aggregate crushing value formula is given below, Aggregate crushing value = (W3 / W) or W3 / (W2 – W1) W1 = Empty weight of cylindrical Measure.
The crushing value of aggregates is rather insensitive to variation in strength of weaker aggregates. For this reason, a simple test known as 10 percent fine value is introduced. When the aggregates crushing value become 30% or higher, the results are likely to be inaccurate. Aggregate Crushing Load (Source: IS 2386 (Part 4):1963)
The aggregate crushing value test evaluates the ability of the aggregates used in road or pavement construction to withstand the stresses induced by moving vehicles in the form of crushing. With this, the aggregates should also provide sufficient resistance to crushing under the roller during construction work and under rigid tyre rims of

“Aggregate crushing value is determined by taking a percentage of weight crushed aggregate sample passing through 2.36 mm IS Sieve divided by weight of aggregate sample taken for test” Aggregate crushing value formula is given below, Aggregate crushing value = (W3 / W) or W3 / (W2 – W1) W1 = Empty weight of cylindrical Measure.
The purpose of this method is to determine the crushing value of the given sample of aggregate for the road construction works. The Principal mechanical properties required in road stones are: Satisfactory resistance to crushing under the roller during construction and Adequate resistance to surface abrasion under traffic.
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.
