    This experiment aims to determine the aggregate impact value (AIV) of a pavement material sample. The procedure involves sieving the aggregate, compacting it in layers, subjecting it to impact blows, then sieving it again and calculating the AIV based on the masses retained and passing through the sieve. The results show an AIV of 19.10% for the sample, which is acceptable as it is below the 30% threshold. In conclusion, the test provides a simple way to evaluate aggregate resistance to impact in simulating field conditions.

    EXPERIMENT TITLE :

    Aggregate impact value test

    EXPERIMENT PURPOSE :

    To
    determine value aggregate impact is needed in the design us
    es a mixture of various pavement layers.

    MATERIAL AND APPARATUS


    1. Impact tester

    2. Sieve 14mm, 10mm, 2.36mm

    3. Trays
    4. Rod packing

    5. Rubber pounder

    6. Bristle brush

    7. Weighing

    PROSEDURE
    1. Aggregate samples are sieved using a sieve 14mm and 10mm. The
    aggregate sample must be dried in the oven no more than 4 hours at a
    temperature of 105 (approximately 5ºc). Aggregate to
    be tested must pass a 10mm sieve.

    2. Sample is put into the measuring cup in three


    increments. Compacting each layer with 25 times
    the thrust using a 10mm steel rod at a free drop from a height of 50mm
    from the surface of the sample.

    3. Aggregate surface using a smooth steel rod. Dispose of


    excess aggregate and reduced the added.

    4. steel bowl in pairs with neat tools and in the aggregate,


    and aggregate into a bowl andcompacting using rod packing as much as
    25 times the thrust.
    5. Knocker height adjusted so that the
    surface is 350 (approximately 5mm) of the sample
    surface. Knocker in shock as much as 15 times.

    6. Remove samples from the steel bowl using a rubber pounder and put in
    the tray. Bristle brush is used to produce the
    samples. Sample weights to the nearest 0.1g (M1).

    7. 2.36mm sieved samples using a sieve so that there is no sample that can
    pass
    through the sieve. Sample weights are passed sieve (M2) and the retaine
    d (M3) to the nearest 0.1g. If the total mass (M2 + M3) is different from
    the M1 more than 1g ignore the results and run tests on other samples.

    8. Repeat the procedure 1 to 7 for the second sample.

    9. Aggregate impact value (aiv) the two samples is


    calculated and set to a percentage of the decimal point using the
    following equation: -
    RESULT

    DETAILS MASS(g)
    The aggregate + mass of the 1127.0
    mold
    Mass of the mold 826.0
    Mass sample passing the 321.4
    2.36mm sieve + pan
    Mass of pan 263.90
    Mass sample left at 2.36mm 663.50
    (retained)
    Mass of the specimen M1 301
    M2 57.5
    M2 243.4
    Total mass (M2+M3) 300.9

    (M2+M3) – M1 AIV=57.5/301*100

    300.9-301=0.1g =19.10%

    DISSCUSION
    Chief advantage of aggregate impact test is that test
    equipment and the test procedure are quite simple and it
    determines the resistance to impact of stones simulating
    field condition.
    The test can be performed in a short time even at
    construction site or at stone quarry, as the apparatus is
    simple and portable.

    CONCLUSION

    Well shaped cubical stones provide higher resistance to


    impact when compared with flaky and elongated stones.
    If all the test specimens to be tested in the aggregate impact
    testing mould are of equal volume, the height of these
    specimens will also be equal and hence the height of fall of
    the impact hammer on the specimens will be equal.
    From the experiment the value of AIV is 19.10% and this is
    acceptable because the value is less than the value of
    predetermined AIV is 30%.

    QUESTION
    Give the important of aggregate value impact
    value towards pavement

    I. It is used to determine the crushing strength


    of aggregates.
    II.The aggregate crushing value provides a
    relative measure of resistance to crushing
    under gradually applied crushing load.
    III. To test the hardness property of aggregates
    and to decide whether they are suitable for
    different pavement construction works.
