Read MoreThe crushing strength of an aggregate was determined by means of the so-called aggregate crushing index according to PN-B-06714-40 [19], analogous to the British method of determining aggregate crushing value (ACV) according to BS 812 [18], but with some differences. A specimen of aggregate in a steel cylinder with an internal diameter …

Read MoreAggregate crushing was carried out in a Los Angeles drum, in accordance with the requirements of EN 1097-2:2020. The analysis showed that for grits of the 10–14 mm fraction, the lower values of the LA indices were obtained, which allows for obtaining a bigger index of crushing strength than in the case of crushing using the 4–8 mm fraction.
Read MoreApplication of Aggregate Crushing Test: The aggregate crushing value is an indirect measure of crushing strength of the aggregates. Low aggregate crushing value indicates strong aggregates, as the crushed fraction is low. Thus the test can be used to assess the suitability of aggregates with reference to the crushing strength for various types
Read MoreThe current standard method for testing the tube crushing strength of aggregate does not reflect the actual stress conditions of the aggregate within the concrete matrix. Further study on the modeling of the stress conditions of LWA in concrete should be carried out to simulate the strength of LWA in concrete.
