Question 1.
What does the Aggregate Crushing Value test measure?
Show hintHide hint
Think about how aggregates behave under weight.
Question 2.
What is the maximum ACV limit for aggregates used in concrete for roads?
Show hintHide hint
Recall the specific limits discussed.
3Question 3.
What is the acceptable limit for Aggregate Crushing Value for concrete used in roads?
- Less than 20%
- Less than 30%
- Less than 45%
Show hintHide hint
Remember the category of construction we're discussing.
4Question 4.
True or False: A higher Aggregate Crushing Value indicates a stronger aggregate.
- True
- False
Show hintHide hint
Think about the implications of ACV on aggregate performance.
Question 5.
Given an aggregate sample weight of 1000g and a total crushed weight of 700g, calculate the Aggregate Crushing Value (ACV) and determine if it is suitable for road use.
Show hintHide hint
Focus on the formula for ACV.
Question 6.
You have two aggregates: Aggregate A with an ACV of 25% and Aggregate B with an ACV of 50%. Discuss the implications for their use in a high-traffic road project.
Show hintHide hint
Consider the required strength for heavy traffic.
