a known grading, void content indicates theaggregate's angularity, sphericity, and surface texture compared with other fine aggregates tested in the same grading. When void content is measured on an as-received fine aggregate grading, it can indicatethe effect of thefine aggregate on the workability of a mixture in which it isused. Apparatus
Properties that are considered most important in pavement performance are coarse aggregate angularity; fine aggregate angularity; flat and elongated particles, and clay content. Superpave comes of age: thanks to a national research and implementation effort, this hot-mix asphalt design system is becoming the rage today.

The objective of this research was to evaluate the quality (angularity, mortar strengths and alkali-silica reactivity) of fine aggregate for Iowa portland cement concrete (pee) pavements. Sands were obtained from 30 sources representative of fine aggregate across Iowa. The gradation, fineness modulus
structure is the angularity of the fine aggregate. The angularity is oiten referred to as the particle shape and surface texture. The Federal Highway Administration's (FHWA's) Technical Advisory T 5040.27 (1) recommends limiting the natural fine aggregates by the weight of the total aggregate blend to 15% through 25% dej:ending on traffic.

Fine aggregate angularity (FAA) requirements, one of the aggregate consensus properties, has generated considerable debate in some areas of the country. Adopting an FAA requirement of 45 percent for high traffic pavements has changed the number of sources available for asphalt mixtures. Superpave also provides a limit on flat and elongated ...
The effect of fine aggregate angularity (FAA) on the skid-resistance of asphalt pavement was investigated in the paper. To achieve the objective, four fine aggregates with various FAA values were used in stone matrix asphalt (SMA) and conventional asphalt concrete (AC), separately.
Fine aggregate angularity is defined as the percent air voids present in loosely compacted aggregates smaller than 2.36 millimeter. Higher void contents correspond to higher fractured faces. In the test, a sample of fine aggregate is poured into a small calibrated cylinder by flowing through a
Fine Aggregate Angularity Number Test Apparatus determines the loose uncompacted void content of a fine aggregate material. When measured on any aggregate of a known grading, void content provides an indication of that aggregate's angularity, spherical,and surface texture compared with other fine aggregate stested in the same grading.
particular interest for this research are the fine aggregate angularity requirements and the possible interactions with asphalt content and performance grade. 1.1.1 Current Angularity Requirements for Fine Aggregates Superpave has defined limits on the angularity of fine aggregates …

The validity of the Superpave fine aggregate angularity (FAA) requirement is questioned by both the owner agencies and the paving and aggregate industries. The FAA test is based on the assumption that more fractured faces will result in higher void content in the loosely compacted sample; however, this assumption is not always true.
The Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT) has implemented the Superpave recommendations in the 2000 Supplemental Specifications. This research was directed towards better understanding of the influence of angularity of fine aggregates, asphalt content, and performance grade of asphalts on hot mix asphalt (HMA) performance.

Fine Aggregate Angularity (FAA) (20) Description. Welcome to the Fine Aggregate Angularity course. This course describes the fine aggregate angularity (FAA) test, a method of determining the angularity of fine aggregate, which is important in determining hot mix asphalt mixture susceptibility to deformation under load (rutting).
of a sample of fine aggregate. When measured on any aggregate of known grading, void content provides an indication of that aggregate's angularity, sphericity, and surface texture compared to other fine aggregates tested in the same grading. This method uses a standard fine aggregate grading that is obtained by combining individual
aggregate interlock, and will easily roll over one another allowing movement within the mix, causing deep rutting in the pavement and affecting long-term performance (D'Angelo 1996). Increasing fine aggregate angularity will increase the VMA (voids in mineral aggregate) thereby reducing durability of the pavement (D'Angelo 1996).
This is an indirect method for estimating fine aggregate angularity and texture. The FAA test is based on the assumption that more fractured faces will result in higher void content in the loosely compacted sample; however, this is not always true. The paving and aggregate industries have found that cubical shaped particles, even with 100 ...
Fine aggregate angularity (FAA) requirement is one of the aggregate consensus properties recommended by SHRP. Many state highway departments include FAA as part of their Superpave® mixture design specifications. Recent concerns about pavement performance and aggregate shape have caused these agencies to reinvestigate whether standard FAA ...
In order to study the impact of fine aggregate angularity on the shear strength of the mix, this study selected one coarse aggregate and five different fine aggregates with the same gradation: Stone C is granite, Stone D is diabase, Stone E is river sand, and the other two are limestone. The fine aggregate angularity tests (air voids method) (T 0344-2000) were conducted on all these fine ...

A larger composite angularity index and composite texture index imply a stronger contact-friction strength of the particle system, which leads to the segregation of coarse aggregates. Fine aggregates move through voids among the coarse aggregates during the falling process.
Fine Aggregate Angularity Apparatus is used to determine the loose uncompacted void content of aggregate. This testing method provides an indication of aggregate spherical shape, angularity, and workability within a mixture. Test sample is mixed until homogeneous and poured into the funnel of the device while the funnel stem is blocked. The sample is then released into the 100mL Copper ...
