The aggregate crushing value test determines the resistance of aggregates to crushing under a gradually applied compressive load. A lower aggregate crushing value indicates stronger aggregates. The calculation involves determining the percentage of crushed material that passes through a specific sieve size relative to the original sample weight.
What is the aggregate crushing value for a sample having total dry weight of 2.1 kg and weight of material passing through 2.36 mm I.S. sieve is about 0.84 kg after the crushing of aggregates?
