Aggregate Crushing Value (ACV) – this is the measurement of the resistance of aggregate to crushing by compressive force. A test specimen (10-14mm) is compressed (up to 400 kN) and the proportion of material passing 2.36 mm is the ACV (mean value of two tests). The higher the value the weaker the aggregate.
The aggregate crushing value test result was 16.26%. This indicates that the aggregates are of lower quality as higher values mean more aggregates crush into smaller pieces. The aggregates can be used for concrete in non-wearing surfaces but not wearing surfaces like roadways which require an aggregate crushing value of less than 25%.
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, aggregates possessing low aggregate crushing value should be preferred. Why to test Aggregate Crushing Value? The principal mechanical properties required in road …
