Aggregates Flashcards
The stability of asphalt concrete and base courses is mostly developed by the aggregate interlock. Therefore, angular and rough particles are desirable for asphalt concrete and base courses in order to increase the stability of the materials in the field and to reduce rutting. Flaky and elongated aggregates are undesirable for asphalt concrete ...
