1、Designation: D3744/D3744M 11aStandard Test Method forAggregate Durability Index1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D3744/D3744M; the number immediately following the designation indicates theyear of original adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number i

Thevalues stated in each system may not be exact eq

9、eves3. Summary of Test Method3.1 This test method was developed to permit prequalifica-tion of aggregates proposed for use in the construction oftransportation facilities. Basically, the test establishes an ag-gregates resistance to generating fines when agitated in thepresence of water. Separate an

10、d different test procedures areused to evaluate the coarse and the fine portions of a material.3.2 A sample of coarse aggregate is prepared to a specificgrading and then washed in a mechanical washing vessel for a2-min agitation time. After discarding the minus 4.75-mm (No.4) material, dry the washe

11、d test sample.3.3 The coarse aggregate test sample is then agitated in themechanical washing vessel for a period of 10 min. A represen-tative portion of the resulting wash water and minus 75-m(No. 200) size fines is collected and mixed with a stockcalcium chloride solution and placed in a plastic cy

12、linder.Aftera 20-min sedimentation time, the level of the sediment columnis read. The height of the sediment value is then used tocalculate the durability index of the coarse aggregate (Dc).3.4 The fine aggregate sample is prepared by washing aspecific quantity of the material in the mechanical wash

13、ingvessel for a 2-min agitation period. All minus 75-m (No. 200)size material is washed from the sample through a 75-m (No.200) sieve and discarded. The plus 75-m (No. 200) fraction isdried.3.5 The fine aggregate test sample is tested by the StandardSand Equivalent Test Method (Test Method D2419) ex

Ashaking time of 10 min instead of 45 s is used.3.6 This test method includes procedures for testing aggre-gates exhibiting a wide range in specific gravity, includinglight

18、ea gravel or a very coarse sand.3.7 The durability index for coarse aggregate (Dc) or for fineaggregate (Df) is calculated, as applicable, by appropriateequations presented in the method. The durability index of awell-graded aggregate containing both coarse and fine fractionsis defined as the lowest

19、 of the two values, Dcor Df, obtained bythe test. This value is recommended to be the controlling valuefor specification purposes.4. Significance and Use4.1 This test method assigns an empirical value to therelative amount, fineness, and character of clay-like materialthat may be generated in an agg

20、regate when subjected tomechanical degradation.4.2 The procedure has been used in limited geographicalareas of the United States and the results have been correlatedwith aggregate performance in various construction applica-tions, including: aggregate base, permeable material for back-fill, fine con

21、crete aggregate, and riprap for rock slope protec-tion.3,44.3 A minimum durability index is permitted to be specifiedto prohibit the use of an aggregate in various constructionapplications that is prone to degradation, resulting in genera-tion of clay-like fines.4.4 This test method provides a rapid

22、 test for evaluation ofthe quality of a new aggregate source. Research has indicatedit may also be suitable for use instead of the sodium sulfatesoundness test for evaluating the durability characteristics offine aggregate for use in portland-cement concrete, therebyreducing the need for time-consum

23、ing and expensive sound-ness tests.34.5 Although the application of this method has beenlimited to aggregates for specific construction uses, the possi-bility exists for expanding the application of this method tocontrol the quality of aggregates used in other areas ofconstruction, such as aggregate

24、s for use in bituminous pavingmixtures, coarse aggregate for use in portland-cement concrete,and aggregate for use as railroad ballast.NOTE 1The text of this test method references notes and footnoteswhich provide explanatory material.

38、o. 4) sieve and to develop afree-flowing condition in the portion passing the sieve. Performdrying by any method that does not heat the aggregate inexcess of 60C 140F or cause degradation of the particles.Sunlight, ovens, or forced drafts of warm air are the mostcommonly used sources of heat.9.2 If

39、the sample contains an appreciable amount of clay,turn the aggregate frequently during the drying process toobtain even drying throughout and prevent the formation ofhard clay lumps.9.3 Break up any hard clods and remove coatings of finesfrom the coarse aggregate particles by any means that will not

40、appreciably reduce the natural individual particle sizes.9.4 Determine the sample grading by sieving in accordancewith Test Method C136 on 19.0, 12.5, 9.5, 4.75, 2.36, and1.18-mm (34 ,12 , and38-in. and Nos. 4, 8, and 16) sieves.Discard any material that is retained on the 19.0-mm (34-in.)sieve.9.5
