FROST SUSCEPTIBILITY OF CRUSHED GLASS USED AS CONSTRUCTION AGGREGATE. TECHNICAL NOTE

The frost susceptibility for 100% glass cullet specimens and 30% by weight glass cullet-aggregate specimens was determined using ASTM D 5918. The cullet has negligible to very low frost susceptibility, and it did not increase the frost susceptibility of the aggregate. Based on a comparison of grain size distributions of the cullet and aggregates with the work of others, we conclude that the material tested represents typical cullet for which other engineering properties have been determined; therefore, this information can be added to the current body of knowledge about the engineering properties of glass cullet.
