2 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What is the formula for calculating theoretical specific gravity G_t?
Think about the individual component weights.
List the components required to calculate G_t.
Recall the types of materials in the mix.
What does G_t represent in asphalt mix design?
Think about what the term 'theoretical' indicates.
True or False: Air voids are included when calculating G_t.
Consider the meaning behind excluding air voids.
Given a set of graduated weight values for different aggregates and their specific gravities, compute the G_t using synthetic data, and explain your reasoning.
Double check each component's weight while computing.
Analyze how using different materials with varied specific gravities affects G_t and thus the overall performance of asphalt pavements.
Consider durability, mix design specifications, and real-world usage.
