FLAKINESS AND ELONGATION INDEX (ASTM D 4791)

FLAKINESS AND ELONGATION INDEX (ASTM D 4791)


The flat and elongated particles test for coarse aggregates measures the percentage of particles with a length-to-thickness ratio exceeding a specified value. These particles can adversely affect compaction, leading to difficulties in material placement and compromised load-bearing capacity. Additionally, they hinder the development of a robust aggregate skeleton essential for structural integrity.
