Wearing Course - Ac 14: The Upgrading of Singida-Babati-Minjingu Road Project

The document discusses the grading and extraction test results for asphalt concrete wearing course material from the Upgrading of Singida-Babati-Minjingu Road Project in Tanzania. The test was performed on two samples and found the binder content to be 4.65% for both, meeting the designed content of 4.6%. The grading curves for both samples were also within the specified limits for asphalt concrete type AC20.
