EFFECT OF COARSE FRACTION FLAKINESS ON THE STRENGTH OF GRADED MATERIALS

THE EFFECT WAS EXAMINED OF THE FLAKINESS (DEFINED ACCORDING TO THE BRITISH STANDARD AND MEASURED DIRECTLY ON THE COURSE GRAINS) ON THE ENGINEERING PROPERTIES OF CRUSHED, GRADED AND UNSTABILIZED AGGREGATE. IN ORDER TO ISOLATE THE EFFECTS OF THE FLAKINESS, MOST OF THE TESTS WERE PERFORMED ON BOTH FLAKY AND UNFLAKY MATERIAL, ALL OTHER FACTORS BEING KEPT EQUAL IN BOTH MATERIALS. THE EFFECT OF FLAKINESS ON THE FOLLOWING PROPERTIES WAS EXAMINED; (1)MECHANICAL STRENGTH (THE DEGREE OF GRAIN BREAKAGE AS A RESULT OF LOADING); (2)PACKABILITY; (3)BEARING CAPACITY; AND (4) PERMEABILITY TO WATER./TIIT/
