The percentage of flat and elongated particles is determined on the coarse portion of the blended aggregate (retained on the #4 sieve) in accordance with ASTM D4791 (Level 2 Aggregate Training). The maximum allowable percentage of flat and elongated particles for all mixes other than SP125xSM is given in Standard Specification Section 403.2.4.

Before the specification is changed to a 3:1 ratio the effect of the particle shape on performance should be evaluated. Two aggregates (limestone and granite) were evaluated in their "as-received" state and in two other particle shapes (more cubical, less flat and elongated) obtained from Vertical Shaft Impact (VSI) crushing.

Flat and elongated particles have long been considered undesirable in hot mix asphalt (HMA) mixes due to their tendency to break down during construction and traffic. Currently, the Superpave mix design system currently specifies a maximum limit of 10 percent of flat and elongated particles at the 5:1 ratio for the design aggregate blend. …
