Q1A
In a Marshall test, the percentage of asphalt binder by
total weight of aggregate is 5.3%. The bulk specifc
gravity of aggregate (G)-2.582, the specifc gravity
of asphalt binder (G)=1.000, and the density of water
3
(Yw)=1.000 g/cm. If the voids flled with asphalt
(VFA) is 70.0% and the effective asphalt binder (Pbe)
is 4.0% by total weight of mixture, determine the
following properties:
a. The absorbed asphalt binder (Pba)
b. The bulk specifc gravity of the compacted mixture
(Gmb)
c. The voids in mineral aggregate (VMA)
d. The voids in total mixture (VTM)
e. The theoretical maximum specifc gravity of the
loose mixture (Gmm)
The effective specifc gravity of the aggregate (Gse)
