Aggregates used in road construction should be strong enough to resist crushing under traffic. Toughness is the property of a material to resist impact. Due to traffic loads, the road stones are subjected to the pounding action or impact and there is possibility of stones breaking into smaller pieces. The road aggregates should therefore …
Correlation analyses among the measured parameters identified the aggregate crushing value as a promising alternative test method to quantify the crushing potential of aggregates and to adjust the gradation accordingly to produce mixtures with optimized volumetric properties.
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 …

The crushing value measures the strength of the aggregates under gradually applied compressive loads when they are used in pavements. It is the weight percentage of the crushed materials obtained when the test aggregates are subjected to a …
The crushing value of aggregate offers a relative measure of resistance against crushing under progressively employed crushing load. Crushing value refers to a measure of the strength of the aggregate. Hence, the aggregates should contain least crushing value.
Look into the world of pavement construction with this guide on aggregate properties and testing. From crushing strength to water absorption, explore the key factors influencing pavement durability.
The aim of this study was to determine the impact of mechanical properties of aggregates on ordinary and high performance concretes with these aggregates. Research included aggregate crushing resistance and mechanical properties of 24 concretes with: basalts, granites, granodiorite, dolomite, quartzite, gravels from 13 Polish and Ukrainian …
The aggregate crushing value test is conducted on coarse aggregates to determine their resistance to crushing under gradually applied compressive load. It is expressed as a percentage by weight of the crushed material obtained when test aggregates are subjected to a specified load under standardized conditions. The …
The aggregate is placed in a cylindrical mould and a load of 40 ton is applied through a plunger. The material crushed to finer than 2.36 mm is separated and expressed as a percentage of the original weight taken in the mould. This percentage is referred as aggregate crushing value. The crushing value of aggregate is restricted to 30 per …
Aggregate Crushing Test. Aggregate crushing value is the measure of resistance of aggregate to crushing against gradually applied compressive load. This test is conducted to determine the crushing strength of aggregate. This test helps to assess the suitability of aggregates for use in road construction and other applications where …
This document gives the determination of aggregate crushing value ( ACV) of aggregates. This gives a relative measure of the resistance of the aggregate crushing under the gradually applied compressive load.

Die Fluidtechnik Fiedler entwickelt und produziert neben den Komplettsteuerungen für Großanlagen auch kleine, kompakte und mobile Aggregate, die auf die Bedürfnisse des Kunden angepasst sind.
For determination of the aggregates 10% fines value of coarse aggregate, which passes 12.5 mm. IS sieve and retained on 10 mm IS sieve
7.7.1.1 Introduction. One of the requirements, for the suitability of aggregates for construction, is the ability of the aggregate to resist crushing. The Aggregate Crushing Value gives a relative measure of the resistance of the aggregate to crushing under a gradually applied compressive load.
Pavement Design Questions and Answers – Highway Materials – Stone Aggregate Tests – 1. This set of Pavement Design Multiple Choice Questions & Answers (MCQs) focuses on "Highway Materials – Stone Aggregate Tests – 1". 1. The polished stone value test is used to test which of the below properties? a) Roundness. b) Crushing.
The crushing value of aggregate is an essential parameter in assessing the strength and durability of construction materials. It determines the ability of aggregates to resist crushing under a compressive load, which is crucial for their suitability in road construction and concrete production.
This document describes the procedure for determining the aggregate crushing value (ACV) of aggregate materials. The ACV test involves crushing a sample of aggregate between 9.5mm and 13.2mm under a gradually applied 400kN load. The percentage of material crushed finer than 2.36mm is calculated and reported as the ACV. The test can …
The 10% fines value is a metric that gauges the ability of aggregates to withstand crushing under loading, and it is applicable to both weak and strong aggregates. Fine aggregates are those that pass through a 2.36mm sieve. This test seeks to determine the amount of force required to produce 10% of fine values, which is expressed as the …
The aggregate crushing value is an essential index in the construction of road bases and is defined as the mass percentage of fine particles after a confined compression test of recycled CDW.
The selection of appropriate aggregates should consider important factors such as mineralogical characteristics and crushing processes. This paper aims to investigate the relations between aggregates sources, crushing processes, shape, and resistance to degradation. Therefore, different materials were compared in terms of …
BS 812-110:1990. This Part of BS 812 describes a method for the determination of the aggregate crushing value (ACV) which gives a relative measure of the resistance of an aggregate to crushing under a gradually applied compressive load.
