The effective specific gravity of aggregate (Gse) for an HMAC mixture remains constant over a range of asphalt contents. The same should hold true for RAP materials. Gse is calculated as follows: G P G P G se b mm b b 100 100 (1-1) where Gmm = maximum specific gravity of the mixture, Gb = specific gravity of the asphalt cement, and

به خواندن ادامه دهیدAggregate Specific Gravity. Aggregate specific gravity is useful in making weight-volume conversions and in calculating the void content in compacted HMA (Roberts et al., 1996 [1] ). AASHTO M 132 and ASTM E 12 define specific gravity as: "…the ratio of the mass of a unit volume of a material at a stated temperature to the mass of the same ...

به خواندن ادامه دهیدOverview. The theoretical maximum specific gravity (Gmm) of a HMA mixture is the specific gravity excluding air voids. Thus, theoretically, if all the air voids were eliminated from an HMA sample, the combined specific gravity of the remaining aggregate and asphalt binder would be the theoretical maximum specific gravity.
به خواندن ادامه دهیدThere is no specification for bulk specific gravity, but it is used to calculate other specified parameters such as air voids, VMA and VFA. Typical Values. Typical values for bulk specific gravity range from 2.200 to 2.500 depending upon the bulk specific gravity of the aggregate, the asphalt binder content, and the amount of compaction.
به خواندن ادامه دهیدAggregate bulk specific gravity may be one of the least appreciated factors affecting the performance of asphalt pavements. Although high quality mixtures can be made with aggregates having a wide range in bulk specific gravity values, precisely determining the bulk specific gravity (Gsb) is critical to setting the optimum asphalt content of every mix design.
