The 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 …

The test requires samples of the aggregate to be subjected to standard load crushing conditions. Multiple layers of presieved materials are tamped 25 times before a 40-ton load is applied at a rate of 4 tons per minute. The crushed aggregate is then sieved, weighed, and compared to the original total weight to provide an aggregate crushing …

Result: Aggregate crushing value = 20%. Result Analysis: The value is higher when more percentage of aggregates crush and break into smaller pieces which indicates the aggregates are of a lower quality. Aggregate crushing value < 45% for aggregates used for concrete for non-wearing surfaces and <25% for wearing surfaces like runways and …
