This test gives the Aggregates Crushing Value (ACV), which is an index of crushing strength of aggregates. The apparatus used for this test is Compression Testing Machine / Universal Testing Machine. A sample of aggregates in surface dry condition, which pass through the 12.5 mm sieve and are retained on 10 mm sieve are taken for this test (W1).
Aggregate used in road construction, should be strong enough to resist crushing under traffic wheel loads. If the aggregates are weak the stability of the pavement structure is likely to be adversely affected. The strength of coarse aggregates is assessed by aggregate crushing test.

A single-particle crushing test was carried out for more than 170 recycled aggregates from waste concrete. Recycled aggregates were sieved into 30- and 40-mm particle size groups, mainly consisting of mortar with 2–10 natural aggregates.
asphalt concrete and to determine those test methods that best correlate with field performance. Based on a review of literature and specifications, laboratory tests for characterizing aggregate toughness/abrasion resistance and durability/soundness were selected.

The average crushing value in the different tests is the actual crushing value of aggregate. Important points to remember. It is recommended that the crushing value of aggregate should be less than 30%. If it is more than 30 % then 10% finer aggregate is suggested to use. The aggregate whose crushing value is less than 30% can be used for
relating to testing of aggregates for concrete, and it does not include all the necessary provisions of a contract. 1. SCOPE 1.1 This standard (Part IV) covers the following tests for aggregates concrete : a) Determination of Aggregate Crushing \‘alue, b) Determination of the 10 percent Fines Value,
After the first cycle crushing test (Fig. 2 a-f), the test sample (single size range of aggregates or PAC gradation) was poured into a tray, then put into the test mold again by using ‘equal quaternary method’ (Fig. 2h), and finally the second cycle crushing test would be conducted according to the experimental methods (Fig. 2i-m).
106 tests were performed and the plasticity index was zero (nonplastic) for all tests. Evaluation of Recycled Concrete Dense-Graded Aggregate Base An enormous quantity of testing indicates that re cycled crushed concrete consistently complies with all the parameters required for excellent long-term performance.
AGGREGATE CRUSHING TEST Objectives of Aggregate Crushing Test To calculate the value of crushing of road aggregate To find out which aggregate is best for which type of road APPARATUS FOR CRUSHING TEST The apparatus given by IS: 2386-1963 (Part IV) for the standard aggregate crushing consist of: 15.2 cm diameter steel cylinder with square base plate A plunger with a piston of diameter 15 cm, a
an aggregate for use in concrete on a particular job or in meeting a particular specification should be based upon specific information obtained from tests used to measure the aggregate’s quality or, more importantly, its service record, or both. More performance tests are also used to test aggregates in concrete.
One model in which pavement materials can fail is crushing under compressive stress. is standardized by a test IS: 2386 Part-IV and is used to determine the crushing power of aggregates. The total crushing value provides a relative measure of the resistance to crushing under a gradually applied crushing load.
This percentage is known as a crushing value of aggregate. This percentage should not exceed 30% of the total weight of aggregate taken for the test. The aggregate crushing value test result should not be more than 30 % for the concrete used for roads and pavements and, in case of other structures; it may be permitted up to 45%.
A single-particle crushing test was carried out for more than 170 recycled aggregates from waste concrete. Recycled aggregates were sieved into 30- and 40-mm particle size groups, mainly consisting of mortar with 2–10 natural aggregates.
Experimental test results indicated favorable mechanical strength improvements of concrete incorporating sintered fly ash aggregates compared to cold bonded aggregates. Test results also demonstrated that the composite strength of concrete was found to be improved when the ratio of volume of coarse aggregate to volume of cement mortar is lower.

The aggregate crushing value test is an important test of aggregates. It gives a numerical index of the strength of the aggregate and it is used for concrete in construction of roads and pavements. The aggregates, have minimum crushing value, are recommended for roads and pavements as it indicates a lower crushed fraction under load and would
Crushing Value Test of Aggregates – Importance, Procedure, and Standard limits. The aggregate crushing value test on coarse aggregates gives a relative measure of an aggregate under a gradually applied compressive load. It is a numerical index of the strength of the aggregates. This test is helpful in the construction of roads and pavements.
The aggregates crushing value test should be performed as per IS code 2386 Part IV. First, fill the sample aggregate with one-third of the cylindrical measure in three layers. Each layer should be tamped 25times freely. After filling the sample aggregate, weigh and record it as W1. Now fill the aggregate in the mould along with the plunger on top.

These include; CONCRETE •Concrete cube strength •Slump test •Schmidt rebound hammer •Concrete mix design.

This test is helpful in the construction of roads and pavements.
Sampling for Crushing Test of Aggregate. For the Aggregate crushing value test, an aggregate sample passing through a 12.5 mm IS sieve and retained on a 10mm IS sieve is selected and dried to a temperature of 105 ºC to 110 ºC then cooled to room temperature. To fill the cylindrical measure mold about 6.5 kg of a sample of aggregate is sufficient.
106 tests were performed and the plasticity index was zero (nonplastic) for all tests. Evaluation of Recycled Concrete Dense-Graded Aggregate Base An enormous quantity of testing indicates that re cycled crushed concrete consistently complies with all the parameters required for excellent long-term performance.
Aggregate crushing value test on coarse aggregates gives a relative measure of the resistance of an aggregate crushing under gradually applied compressive load. Coarse aggregate crushing value is the percentage by weight of the crushed material obtained when test aggregates are subjected to a specified load under standardized conditions.
This percentage is known as a crushing value of aggregate. This percentage should not exceed 30% of the total weight of aggregate taken for the test. The aggregate crushing value test result should not be more than 30 % for the concrete used for roads and pavements and, in case of other structures; it may be permitted up to 45%.
