Base course aggregate has a target dry density of 119.7 lb/cu ft in place. It will be laid down and compacted in a rectangular street repair area of 2000 ft * 48 ft * 6 in. The aggregate in the stockpile contains 3.1% moisture.If the required compaction is 95% of the target, how many tons of aggregate will be needed?

The coarse aggregate, fine aggregate and filler are used as materials to produce the asphalt concrete mixture. The aggregate gradation will be blended to fulfill the gradation limit according to JKR standard specification as shown in Table Q1(c)(i). Based on this statement, conclude the result of sieve analysis test of blended aggregate as shown in Table Q1(c)(ii).

- Coarse aggregate is placed in a rigid bucket and compacted with a tamping rod to determineits unit weight. The following data are obtained:• Volume of bucket = 0.5 ft3• Weight of empty bucket = 20.3 lb• Weight of bucket filled with dry compacted coarse aggregate = 76.8 lba) Calculate the dry-compacted unit weight of the aggregate.b) If the bulk dry specific gravity of the aggregate is 2.620, calculate the percent voids.arrow_forwardAggregate from two stockpiles, A and B having coarse aggregate angularity (crushed faces) of 55% and 75% were blended at a ratio of 45:55 by weight, respectively. The percent materials passing the 4.75 mm sieve was 30% and 60% for stockpiles A and B, respectiIvely. What is the percent of crushed faces of the aggregate blend? Select one: O a. 63.22% O b. 65.45% O c. 59.32% O d. 70.26%arrow_forwardCalculate the percent voids between aggregate particles that have been compacted by rodding, if the bulk dry-rodded unit weight is 90 lb/ft3 and the bulk dry specific gravity is 2.70.arrow_forward
