Scope*1.1 This test method covers the determination of bulk density (“unit weight”) of aggregate in a compacted or loose condition,and calculated voids between particles in fine, coarse, or mixed aggregates based on the same determination. This

United States13.2 bulk density, nof aggregate, the mass of a unit volume of bul

16、k aggregate material, in which the volume includes thevolume of the individual particles and the volume of the voids between the particles. Expressed in kg/m3 lb/ft3.3.3 unit weight, nweight (mass) per unit volume. (Deprecated term usedpreferred term bulk density.)3.3.1 DiscussionWeight is equal to

17、the mass of the body multiplied by the acceleration due to gravity. Weight may be expressed in absolute units(newtons, poundals) or in gravitational units (kgf, lbf), for example: on the surface of the earth, a body with a mass of 1 kg hasa weight of 1 kgf (approximately 9.81 N), or a body with a ma

18、ss of 1 lb has a weight of 1 lbf (approximately 4.45 N or 32.2poundals). Since weight is equal to mass times the acceleration due to gravity, the weight of a body will vary with the locationwhere the weight is determined, while the mass of the body remains constant. On the surface of the earth, the

19、force of gravityimparts to a body that is free to fall an acceleration of approximately 9.81 m/s2 32.2 ft/s2.

20、 DiscussionVoids within particles, either permeable or impermeable, are not included in voids as determined by thistest method.4. Significance and Use4.1 This test method is often used to determine bulk density values that are necessary for use for many methods of selectingproportions for concrete m

21、ixtures.4.2 The bulk density also may be used for determining mass/volume relationships for conversions in purchase agreements.However, the relationship between degree of compaction of aggregates in a hauling unit or stockpile and that achieved in this testmethod is unknown. Further, aggregates in h

22、auling units and stockpiles usually contain absorbed and surface moisture (the latteraffecting bulking), while this test method determines the bulk density on a dry basis.4.3 A procedure is included for computing the percentage of voids between the aggregate particles based on the bulk densitydeterm

Rodding Procedure10.

42、1 Fill the measure one-third full and level the surface with the fingers. Rod the layer of aggregate with 25 strokes of thetamping rod evenly distributed over the surface. Fill the measure two-thirds full and again level and rod as above. Finally, fill themeasure to overflowing and rod again in the

43、manner previously mentioned. Level the surface of the aggregate with the fingers ora straightedge in such a way that any slight projections of the larger pieces of the coarse aggregate approximately balance the largervoids in the surface below the top of the measure.10.2 In rodding the first layer,

44、do not allow the rod to strike the bottom of the measure forcibly. In rodding the second and thirdlayers, use vigorous effort, but not more force than to cause the tamping rod to penetrate to the previous layer of aggregate.NOTE 4In rodding the larger sizes of coarse aggregate, it may not be possibl

45、e to penetrate the layer being consolidated, especially with angularaggregates. The intent of the procedure will be accomplished if vigorous effort is used.10.3 Determine the mass of the measure plus its contents, and the mass of the measure alone, and record the values to the nearest0.05 kg 0.1 lb.

46、11. Jigging Procedure11.1 Fill the measure in three approximately equal layers as described in 10.1, compacting each layer by placing the measureon a firm base, such as a cement-concrete floor, raising the opposite sides alternately about 50 mm 2 in., and allowing the measureto drop in such a manner

47、 as to hit with a sharp, slapping blow. The aggregate particles, by this procedure, will arrange themselvesin a densely compacted condition. Compact each layer by dropping the measure 50 times in the manner described, 25 times oneach side. Level the surface of the aggregate with the fingers or a str

48、aightedge in such a way that any slight projections of the largerpieces of the coarse aggregate approximately balance the larger voids in the surface below the top of the measure.11.2 Determine the mass of the measure plus its contents, and the mass of the measure alone, and record the values to the

49、 nearest0.05 kg 0.1 lb.12. Shoveling Procedure12.1 Fill the measure to overflowing by means of a shovel or scoop, discharging the aggregate from a height not to exceed 50mm 2 in. above the top of the measure. Exercise care to prevent, so far as possible, segregation of the particle sizes of whichthe sample is composed. Level the surface of the aggregate with the fingers or a straightedge in such a way that any slightprojections of the larger pieces of the coarse ag
