(1) Gradation Table 703-2

(2) Liquid limit, AASHTO T 89 25 max.

(3) Plastic limit, AASHTO T 90 Nonplastic

(4) Los Angeles abrasion, AASHTO T 96 40% max.

(b) Surface course aggregate. Furnish hard, durable particles or fragments of crushed stone, crushed slag, or crushed gravel conforming the following:

(1) Gradation Table 703-3

(2) Liquid limit, AASHTO T 89 35 max.

(3) Plastic Index, AASHTO T 90

a) If the percent passing the No. 200 sieve is less than 12% 2 to 9

b) If the percent passing the No. 200 sieve is greater than 12% Less than 2

(4) Los Angeles abrasion, AASHTO T 96 40% max.

(5) Sodium sulfate soundness loss (5 cycles), 12% max.

AASHTO T 104

(6) Durability index (coarse), AASHTO T 210 35 min.

(7) Durability index (fine), AASHTO T 210 35 min.

(8) Fractured faces, ASTM D 5821 75% min.

(9) Free from organic matter and lumps or balls of clay

Do not furnish material that contains asbestos fibers.

Obtain the aggregate gradation by crushing, screening, and blending processes as necessary. Fine aggregate, material passing the No. 4 sieve, shall consist of natural or crushed sand and fine mineral particles.

(c) Screened aggregate – Furnish hard, durable particles or fragments of stone, slag, or gravel conforming the following:

(1) Gradation Table 703-13

(2) Plastic Index, AASHTO T 90 Less than 9

(3) Los Angeles abrasion, AASHTO T 96 55% max.

(4) Free from organic matter and lumps or balls of clay.

Obtain the aggregate gradation by crushing, screening, and blending processes as necessary.
