8、uarter of the maximum projected area (maxi-mum cross-sectional area) of the particle (this excludes smallnicks, see Fig. 1) and the face has sharp or slightly blunt edges.3.1.2 fractured particle, na particle of aggregate having atleast the minimum number of fractured faces specified (usuallyone or

9、two).4. Significance and Use4.1 Some specifications contain requirements relating topercentage of fractured particles in coarse aggregates. Onepurpose of such requirements is to maximize shear strength byincreasing inter-particle friction in either bound or unboundaggregate mixtures. Another purpose

10、 is to provide stability forsurface treatment aggregates and to provide increased frictionand texture for aggregates used in pavement surface courses.This test method provides a standard procedure for determiningthe acceptability of coarse aggregate with respect to suchrequirements.4.2 Specification

11、s differ as to the number of fractured facesrequired on a fractured particle, and they also differ as towhether percentage by mass or percentage by particle countshall be used. If the specification does not specify, use thecriterion of at least one fractured face and calculate percentageby mass.5. A

Sieve thesample over the 4.75-mm (No. 4) sieve, or other specified sievefor retaining material for this test, in accordance with TestMethod C136 and then reduce the portion retained on the sieveusing a splitter in

20、.) or larger, where the fracture particle content is to bedetermined for material retained on the 4.75-mm (No. 4) orsmaller sieve, the test sample may be separated on the 9.5-mm(38-in.) sieve. The portion passing the 9.5-mm (38-in.) sievemay then be further reduced, in accordance with Practice C702,

21、to a minimum of 200 g (0.5 lb). This will reduce the number ofparticles to be separated during the procedure. In this case,percent fractured particles is determined on each portion, and aweighted average percentage of fractured particles is calculatedbased on the mass of each of the portions to refl

22、ect the totalpercentage of fractured particles in the entire sample.8. Procedure8.1 Wash the sample over the sieve designated for determi-nation of fractured particles to remove any remaining finematerial, and dry to constant mass. Determine the mass of thetest sample, and any subsequent determinati

23、ons of mass, to thenearest 0.1 % of the original dry sample mass.8.2 Spread the dried test sample on a clean, flat surface largeenough to permit careful inspection of each particle. To verifythat a particle meets the fracture criteria, hold the aggregateparticle so that the face is viewed directly.

24、If the faceconstitutes at least one-quarter of the maximum cross-sectionalarea of the rock particle, consider it a fractured face.8.3 Using the spatula or similar tool, separate into twocategories: (1) fractured particles based on whether the particlehas the required number of fractured faces, and (

25、2) particles notmeeting the specified criteria. Use Figs. 2-7 to aid in thisdetermination. Be aware that some of the particles in Figs. 2-4do show more than one fractured face. If the required numberof fractured faces is not given in the applicable specifications,the determination will be made on th

26、e basis of a minimum ofone fractured face.8.4 Determine the mass or count of particles in the fracturedparticle category and the mass or count of the particles notmeeting the specified fracture criteria. Use mass to calculatepercent fractured particles unless percentage by particle countis specified

27、.8.5 If more than one number of fractured faces is specified(for example, 70 % with one or more fractured faces and 40 %with two or more fractured faces), repeat the procedure on thesame sample for each requirement.9.

31、l study of 34 well-trained observers oftwo samples of partly fractured gravel (proportion of fracturedparticles = 76 %) the average standard deviation was found tobe 5.2 %. Therefore, the difference in results between twowell-trained observers, on samples of the same material, shouldnot exceed 14.7
