An asphalt sample which is claimed to be AC- 20 is tested by an agency. Which test result will reject the sample O Viscosity at 60•C on original sample = 1850 Poise Ductility at 25C on TFO aged sample = 27 cm Penetration at 25 •C = 51 O Viscosity at 60 C on TFO aged sample = 11250 Poise
The mix design for an asphalt concrete mixture requires 2 to 6% minus No.200. The three aggregates shown in Table are available.Considering that approximately equal amounts of coarse and intermediateaggregate will be used in the mix, what is the percentage of fine aggregate that will give a resulting minus No. 200 in the mixture in the middle of the range,about 4%?
