Summary of Test Method4.1 This test is a measure of degradation of mineral aggre-gates of standard gradings resulting from a combination ofactions including
8、abrasion or attrition, impact, and grinding ina rotating steel drum containing 12 steel spheres. As the drumrotates, a shelf plate picks up the sample and the steel spheres,carrying them around until they are dropped to the oppositeside of the drum, creating an impact-crushing effect. Thecontents th
9、en roll within the drum with an abrading andgrinding action until the shelf plate picks up the sample and thesteel spheres, and the cycle is repeated. After the prescribednumber of revolutions, the contents are removed from the drumand the aggregate portion is sieved to measure the degradationas per
10、cent loss.5. Significance and Use5.1 The test has been widely used as an indicator of therelative quality or competence of various sources of aggregatehaving similar mineral compositions. The results do notautomatically permit valid comparisons to be made betweensources distinctly different in origi
11、n, composition, or structure.Assign specification limits with extreme care in considerationof available aggregate types and their performance history inspecific end uses.6.

16、(11316 in.) and 47.6 mm (178 in.)in diameter, having a mass approximately 400 and 440 g each,respectively, are readily available. Steel spheres 46.8 mm (12732 in.) indiameter having a mass approximately 420 g may also be obtainable. Thecharge may consist of a mixture of these sizes conforming to the
17、 totalmass tolerance of 6.4.7. Sampling7.1 Obtain the field sample in accordance with Practice D75and reduce to an adequate sample size in accordance withPractice C702.8. Test Sample Preparation8.1 Wash the reduced sample and oven dry at 110 6 5C(230 6 9F) to substantially constant mass, separate in
18、toindividual size fractions, and recombine to the grading of Table1 most nearly corresponding to the range of sizes in theaggregate as furnished for the work. Record the mass of thesample prior to test to the nearest 1 g.9. Procedure9.1 Place the test sample and charge in the Los Angelestesting mach
19、ine and rotate the machine at 30 to 33 r/min for1000 revolutions (Note 3). After the prescribed number ofrevolutions, discharge the material from the machine and makea preliminary separation of the sample on a sieve coarser thanthe 1.70-mm (No. 12) sieve. Sieve the finer portion on a1.70-mm sieve in
20、 a manner conforming to Test Method C136.Wash the material coarser than the 1.70-mm sieve and oven dryat 110 6 5C (230 6 9F) to substantially constant mass, anddetermine the mass to the nearest1g.9.1.1 If the aggregate is essentially free of adherent coatingsand dust, the requirement for washing aft
21、er the test is optional.However, in the case of referee testing, the washing procedureshall be performed. Elimination of washing after test willseldom reduce the measured loss by more than about 0.2 % ofthe original sample mass.NOTE 3Valuable information concerning the uniformity of the sampleunder
22、test may be obtained by determining the loss after 200 revolutions.This loss should be determined by dry sieving the material on the1.70-mm (No. 12) sieve without washing. The ratio of the loss after 200revolutions to the loss after 1000 revolutions should not greatly exceed0.20 for material of unif
23、orm hardness. When this determination is made,take care to avoid losing any part of the sample; return the entire sample,including the dust of fracture, to the testing machine for the final 800revolutions required to complete the test.10. Calculation10.1 Calculate the loss (the difference between th
24、e originalmass and the final mass of the test sample) as a percentage ofthe original mass of the test sample (Note 4).NOTE 4The percent loss determined by this method has no knownconsistent relationship to the percent loss for the same material whentested by Test Method C131.11.

25、e following information:11.2 Identification of the aggregate as to source, type, andnominal size, and11.3 Grading designation from Table 1 used for the test, and11.4 Loss by abrasion and impact of the sample expressed tothe nearest 1 % by mass.12. Precision and Bias12.1 Precision12.1.1 Single Operat
26、or PrecisionThe single-operator co-efficient of variation has been found to be 2.7 %.3Therefore,results of two properly conducted tests by the same operator onthe same material are not expected to differ by more than 7.6% of their average.312.1.2 Multilaboratory PrecisionThe multilaboratory co-effic
27、ient of variation has been found to be 4.2 %.3Therefore,results of two different laboratories on identical samples of thesame material are not expected to differ from each other bymore than 11.8 % of their average.3NOTE 5These precision values were obtained in an interlaboratorystudy that included 1
28、0 laboratories and one type of aggregate (Limestone)that had an average mass loss 28.5 %. Each laboratory was given anaggregate sample conforming to grading 1 and another sample conformingto grading 2. The results for the two gradings were averaged. The detailsare given in Research Report RR:C09-104

32、SHELFX1.1 The shelf of the Los Angeles machine is subject tosevere surface wear and impact. With use, the working surfaceof the shelf is peened by the balls and tends to develop a ridgeof metal parallel to and about 32 mm (114 in.) from the junctionof the shelf and the inner surface of the cylinder.
33、 If the shelf ismade from a section of rolled angle, not only may this ridgedevelop but the shelf itself may be bent longitudinally ortransversely from its proper position.X1.2 The shelf should be inspected periodically to deter-mine that it is not bent either lengthwise or from its normalradial pos
34、ition with respect to the cylinder. If either conditionis found, the shelf should be repaired or replaced before furthertests are made. The influence on the test result of the ridgedeveloped by peening of the working face of the shelf is notknown. However, for uniform test conditions, it is recom-me
35、nded that the ridge be ground off if its height exceeds 0.1 in.(2 mm).SUMMARY OF CHANGESCommittee C09 has identified the location of selected changes to this test method since the last issue,C535 09, that may impact the use of this test method.
