How is the load supported by asphalt concrete in the cases of tension and compression? Under what conditions is the asphalt concrete layer subjected to tension?
Discuss five different desirable characteristics of aggregate used in asphalt concrete.
An asphalt concrete specimen has a mass in air of 1327.8 g, mass in water
of 792.4 g, and saturated surface-dry mass of 1342.2 g. Calculate the bulk-specific gravity of the specimen.
