TESTING AGGREGATES. PART 113: METHOD FOR DETERMINATION OF AGGREGATE ABRASION VALUE (AAV)

This Part of BS 812 has been prepared under the direction of the Cement, Gypsum, Aggregates and Quarry Products Standards Policy Committee and is a revision of clause 9 of BS 812 : Part 3 : 1975 which is withdrawn by amendment. It forms part of a general revision of the 1975 edition of this standard. Part 113 of BS 812 describes a method for the determination of the aggregate abrasion value (AAV) which gives a measure of the resistance of aggregate to surface wear by abrasion. The method has not changed technically from that given in the 1975 edition. The only major change is that the test sand is no longer allowed to be reused. For the purposes of this Part of BS 812, the definitions given in BS 812 : Parts 100, 101 and 102 apply. For abstracts of the other parts of the standard see IRRD nos 269286-269288, 229682, 278567, 823951, 285407, 823308, 828491, 285409, 833167-833168, 832954, 823309, 285410, 823310, 823664-823665.
