Summary of Test Method4.1 The Micro-Deval Test is a measure of abrasion resis-tance an

9、d durability of mineral aggregates resulting from acombination of actions including abrasion and grinding withsteel balls in the presence of water. A sample with standardgrading is initially soaked in water for not less than one hour.The sample is then placed in a jar mill with 2.0 L of water andan

10、abrasive charge consisting of 5000 g of 9.5-mm diametersteel balls. The jar, aggregate, water, and charge are revolved at100 rpm for up to 2 h, depending on the particle size. Thesample is then washed and oven dried. The loss is the amountof material passing the 1.18-mm sieve expressed as a percentb

11、y mass of the original sample.5. Significance and Use5.1 The Micro-Deval abrasion test is a test of coarseaggregate to determine abrasion loss in the presence of waterand an abrasive charge. Many aggregates are more susceptibleto abrasion when wet than dry, and the use of water in this testincorpora

12、tes this reduction in resistance to degradation incontrast to some other tests, which are conducted on dryaggregate. The test results are helpful in evaluating thetoughness/abrasion resistance of coarse aggregate subject toabrasion when adequate information is not available fromservice records.1This

Use of the Calibration Aggregate11.1 Calibration AggregateThe Laboratory will establishan adequate supply of material to use for calibration of the testmethod.Asuitable material with a loss of between 10 and 25 %shall be estab

31、lished. From this material 10 samples shall betaken randomly and tested. At the same time 10 samples ofreference aggregate from Brechin Quarry No. 2 (see 7.1) shallalso be tested. Provided the mean loss and variation of theBrechin Quarry No. 2 aggregate is within the allowed toleranceof 11.1.1, the

32、mean value and range obtained with the supplyof the in-house calibration aggregate shall be used thereafter.At any time a new supply of the in-house calibration aggregateis required, the calibration procedure shall be conducted.D69280812FIG. 1 Micro-Deval Abrasion Machine and Container (dimensions i

33、n mm)D6928081311.1.1 The mean loss of the Brechin Quarry No. 2 referenceaggregate (see 7.1) in multi-laboratory study of the Micro-Deval test is 19.1 %. For continued acceptance of data,individual reference material test data must fall within therange 17.5 to 20.7 % loss for 95 % of the time.11.1.2

34、When test data of the calibration aggregate is outsidethe limits, an investigation as to the probable cause shall beconducted. The equipment shall be re-calibrated and the testingtechnique re-examined to detect non-conformance with the testprocedure.11.2 Every 10 samples, but at least every week in

35、which asample is tested, a sample of the calibration aggregate shallalso be tested. The material shall be taken from a stock supplyand prepared according to 8.2. When 20 samples of calibrationmaterial have been tested, and the results show satisfactoryvariation, the frequency of testing may be chang

36、ed to aminimum of one sample every month.11.3 Trend Chart UseThe percent loss of the last twentysamples of calibration material shall be plotted on a trend chartin order to monitor the variation in results (Fig. 2).12. Report12.1 The report shall include the following:12.1.1 The maximum size of the

37、aggregate tested and thegrading used.12.1.2 The percent loss of the test sample to one decimalplace.12.1.3 The percent loss of the calibration aggregate, testedclosest to the time at which the aggregate was tested, to thenearest 0.1 %.12.1.4 The percent loss of the last twenty samples ofcalibration

Precision and Bias313.1 PrecisionFor 19.0-mm maximum size aggregatewith abrasion losses in the range from 5 % to 20 %, the singleoperator coefficient of variation has been found to be 3.4 %.4Therefore, results of two properly conducted tests on samplesof the same aggre

39、gate by the same operator using the sameequipment are not expected to differ by more than 9.6 %4oftheir average, 95 % of the time. The multilaboratory coefficientof variation has been found to be 5.6%.4Therefore, the resultsof two properly conducted tests by different laboratories onsamples of the s

40、ame aggregate are not expected to differ bymore than 15.8 %4of their average, 95 % of the time.13.2 BiasThe procedure in this test method for measuringresistance to abrasion has no bias because the resistance toabrasion can only be defined in terms of the test method.14.

INTERPRETATION OF TEST RESULTSX1.1 In studies of the performance of aggregates in thistest,5,6,7the limits in Table X1.1 have been found useful forseparating aggregates of satisfactory performance from thoseof fair or poor performance. The use of a single test by itself forestimating lik

43、ely aggregate performance is not as useful asusing a combination of tests which measure complementaryproperties.
