| Abstract | The purpose of this research was to determine the effect of shape and grading of the coarse aggregate on the voids available to be filled with fine mortar and the mechanical properties of the mix. Materials used in forming specimens were a limestone crushed aggregate, limestone
filler, and penetration grade asphalt cement. Two aggregate gradations with the same maximum size, but with two different values of flakiness l
index, were used for investigating the effect of the aggregate gradation on the comp actability of the mixture. In order to compare the voids in
the mixture distinctly, two different level of compactive efforts were applied in forming specimens. This research was mainly a study of Marshall stability and flow in relation to density and voids. Specimens were prepared over a range of
binder contents. |
