STRENGTH REQUIREMENTS OF AGGREGATES FOR ROAD CONSTRUCTION /IN GERMAN/

A PROPOSAL FOR THE STRENGTH REQUIREMENTS OF AGGREGATES IS PREPARED. IMPACT STRENGTH TESTS, TESTS OF RESISTANCE TO DYNAMIC STRESS IN THE TEST DRUM, AND RESISTANCE TO PRESSURE WERE RECOMMENDED AS TEST METHODS TO SUPPLEMENT THOSE ALREADY IN EXISTANCE. THESE TESTS WERE TO BE CARRIED OUT ON BOTH DENSELY GRADED MIXTURES AND THOSE HAVING A HIGH CONTENT OF VOIDS. DETAILED PROPOSALS ARE MADE REGARDING THE REQUIREMENTS OF AGGREGATES FOR ROAD CONSTRUCTION DEPENDING ON CLASS OF TRAFFIC LOADING, THUS ENABLING AVAILABE MATERIAL TO BE MORE EXPERTLY EVALUATED THAN HITHERTO. /FG/RRL/
