“…Satisfactory resistance to crushing under the roller during building, and adequate resistance to surface abrasion under traffic, are the main mechanical properties needed for road stone under modern conditions (MARKWICK and SHERGOLD, 1945). The 'Aggregate crushing value provides a relative measure of the resistance of aggregates to crush under a gradually applied compressive load.…”

Crushing test and Impact test are very important to estimate strength and toughness characteristics of the road aggregate. Extensive experimental procedures and different sets of equipment are required for these types of aggregate testing. Therefore, the objective of the study is to investigate whether the light compaction test can be a suitable alternative for both these tests. For this experimental procedure, 60 aggregate samples were collected from different rock quarries spread along North-eastern states of India. The specifications of the aggregate samples are kept similar for all of these three test procedures. The result indicates a strong correlation of Light compaction values (LCV) with Aggregate crushing values (ACV) and Aggregate Impact Values (AIV). The R2 values for the relationship was found to be more than 0.9 for both these relationships. It indicates that the LCV can be used to closely predict the ACV and AIV. The root mean square error (RMSE) values estimated based on the actual and predicted values were also found to be low which further concrete the claim that light compaction test can be a suitable alternative for crushing test and impact test of the aggregates.

“…In this study, hence, the AIV is used to study the relationship between the coarse aggregate strength and the strength of high strength concrete. The moisture condition of coarse aggregate is found to affect its strength as it mentioned in Markwick and Shergold [8]. The study found that the oven drying for the coarse aggregate sample before testing increases the results of crushing value test.…”

“…Furthermore, the study found that the performance of concrete was not affected by the texture of aggregate alone. In addition, Markwick and Shergold [8] observed that the coarse aggregate types are affected by its condition, i.e. the coarse aggregate strength in SSD condition may decrease compared to its strength in dry condition.…”

This study investigates the effect of different types of local coarse aggregate, available in Saudi Arabia, on the strength of high-strength concrete. The utilized coarse aggregates are basalt and two different aggregates of limestone, denoted as limestone 1 and limestone 2. The results of 7 and 28 days compressive strength with different percentages of Micro Silica (MS) (i.e. range from 0 to 10%) show that the compressive strength of high strength concrete (HSC) is influenced by the type of coarse aggregate. Limestone 2 reaches the highest compressive strength followed by the types limestone 1 and then basalt. Properties of coarse aggregate influence the compressive strength of HSC, such as impact value (AIV), and texture. Also, the impact value variation between saturated surface dry (SSD) and dry conditions of the coarse aggregate affect significantly the compressive strength of HSC.
