Question: Example 2 Crushed limestone aggregate contains 1 0 % filler material ( particles finer than 7 5 ) and 5 0 ; of the aggregate

Example 2
Crushed limestone aggregate contains 10% filler material (particles finer than 75) and 50 ; of the aggregate particles are coarser than 2mm, both percentages by mass. This aggregate )=(2.73kgdm3 is mixed with a cutback asphalt )=(1.15kgdm3 at a proportion determined by McKessonFrickstead formula to produce bituminous concrete for highway pavement construction. The unit weight of the specimen cut from the compacted pavement was measured as 2.40kgdm3. Estimate the void content of this bituminous concrete.
