3.31 The following observations are made while testing
aggregate for its suitability in pavement
construction:
(i) Mass of oven-dry aggregate in air = 1000g
(ii) Mass of saturated surface-dry aggregate in
air = 1025 g
(iii) Mass of saturated surface-dry aggregate
under water = 625 g
Based on the above observations, the correct
statement is
(a) bulk specific gravity of aggregate = 2.5 and
water absorption = 2.5%
(b) bulk specific gravity of aggregate = 2.5 and
water absorption = 2.4%
