3、for use by agencies of the U.S. Department of Defense.1. Scope*1.1 This test method covers the determination of bulk density (“unit weight”) of aggregate in a compacted or loose condition,and calculated voids between particles in fine, coarse, or mixed aggregates based on the same determination. Thi
4、s test method isapplicable to aggregates not exceeding 125 mm 5 in. in nominal maximum size.NOTE 1Unit weight is the traditional terminology used to describe the property determined by this test method, which is weight per unit volume (morecorrectly, mass per unit volume or density).1.2 The values s
5、tated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard, as appropriate for aspecification with which this test method is used.An exception is with regard to sieve sizes and nominal size of aggregate, in whichthe SI values are the standard as stated in Specification E1
6、1. Within the text, inch-pound units are shown in brackets. The valuesstated in each system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each system shall be used independently of the other. Combiningvalues from the two systems may result in non-conformance with the standard.1.3 This standard does not p

Significance and Use4.1 This test method is
18、 often used to determine bulk density values that are necessary for use for many methods of selectingproportions for concrete mixtures.4.2 The bulk density also may be used for determining mass/volume relationships for conversions in purchase agreements.However, the relationship between degree of co

Further, aggregates in hauling units and stockpiles usually contain absorbed and surface moisture (the latteraffecting bulking), while this test method determines the bulk density on a dry basis.4.
