Chapter 8 Pavement materials: Aggregates
8.3.1 Crushing test One of the model in which pavement material can fail is by crushing under compressive stress. A test is standardized by IS:2386 part-IV and used to determine the crushing strength of aggregates. The aggregate crushing value provides a relative measure of resistance to crushing under gradually applied crushing load.

11.19.2 Crushed Stone Processing and Pulverized Mineral …
Due to the specialized characteristics of the mineral products and the markets for these products, pulverized mineral processing plants have production rates that are less than 5% of the production capacities of conventional crushed stone plants. Two alternative processing systems for pulverized minerals are summarized in Figure 11-19.2-2.
Implementation of concrete aggregate optimization
To account for aggregates with different specific gravities, the procedure optimizes the aggregate blend based on volume, rather than weight. To do this, the total volume of aggregate V agg is converted to an equivalent mass (weight) for use in the optimization process by multiplying V agg by the unit weight of water and a "standard" …

Ore, Rock & Aggregate Screening (Complete Guide)
A-Z Guide to Screening Ore, Rock & Aggregate. A simple definition of a "screen" is a machine with surface (s) used to classify materials by size. Screening is defined as "The mechanical process which accomplishes a division of particles on the basis of size and their acceptance or rejection by a screening surface".
Maintaining proper aggregate stockpiles
Proper covering, grading, (and) paving under stockpiles, especially for fine aggregate, can help reduce dampness. "The importance of this must not be understated," he said.
