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.

Aggregate crushing value (ACV) provides an indication of the aggregate strength. Aggregate with lower ACV is recommended to ensure that the aggregate will be able to resist applied loads. The test was conducted on coarse aggregate of different grades. ... Compressive strength of concrete produced with the recycled aggregate …

The aggregate crushing value gives a relative measure of the resistance of an aggregate to crushing under a gradually applied compressive load. With aggregate of aggregate crushing value 30 or higher, the result may be anomalous, and in such cases the ten ... :1963 Methods of Test for Aggregates for Concrete- Mechanical Properties.

The purpose of this study is to explore how characteristics of pervious concrete, such as porosity and compressive strength, are affected by three factors: aggregate size, aggregate-to-cement ratio and compaction effort. The study used three aggregate sizes (5–12 mm, 12–18 mm and 18–25 mm), five different aggregate-to …

aggregate to crushing under a gradually applied compressive load. Crushing value is a measure of the strength of the aggregate. The aggregates should therefore have minimum crushing value. 3. APPARATUS The apparatus of the aggregate crushing value test as per IS: 2386 (Part IV) – 1963 consists of:

The aggregate crushing value, which is an inverse measure of mechanical strength of aggregate, is determined by the percentage of fines passing through 2.36 mm IS sieve after test

It can be seen that when the aggregate size is below a certain value (about 7 mm), the compressive strength increases rapidly with the increase of aggregate size. However, when the aggregate size is beyond 7 mm, the increase of aggregate size does not have a significant effect on the compressive strength. Table 4.
