1.0 OBJECTIVES
To determine the aggregate impact value in the laboratory.

2.0 LEARNING OUTCOMES

 Measure the weight of retained crushed material on 2.36 mm sieve
 Calculate the percentage of weight loss over initial weight.

3.0 INTRODUCTION
Impact value of an aggregate is the percentage loss pf weight of particles passing 2.36mm
sieve by the application on load by mean of 15 blows of standard hammer and drop under
specified test condition. The aggregate impact value gives a relation measure of the resistance
of an aggregate to sudden shock or impact, which in some aggregates differs from their
resistance to a slowly applied compressive load.

General: Normally the aggregate impact value of base course is 30, bituminous bound
macadam is about 35 and the cement concrete base course is 30.

Significance: The test gives an idea of toughness of the aggregate to resist facture under the
impact of moving loads.

4.0 INSTRUMENTS /APPARATUS / CHEMICAL / REAGENTS

1.Impact Testing Machine:
Its consists of a cylindrical hammer of 13.5 kg. (30Ibs) sliding freely between two vertical
supports (called guides). Its fall is automatically adjusted to a height of 38cm. There is a
brass plate over which an open cylindrical steel cup of internal diameter 10.2cm and 5cm
depth is placed and fixed to the brass plate.

2. Measure: A cylinder of internal diameter 7.5cm and 5cm deep for measure aggregate.
3. Tamping rod of I cm diameter and 23cm long rounded at one end and pointed at the other
end.
4. Sieves: 12.5mm, 10mm and 2.36mm opening.
5. Balance: 5000g capacity.
6. Laboratory oven capable of maintaining a constant temperature up to 1100C .

Apparatus for the Aggregate Impact Value Test (Millard, 1993)

5.0 PROCEDURE
1. Sieve the aggregate and obtain the portion passing 12.5mm and retained on 10mm sieve.
2. Wash and dry this aggregate at a constant temperature of 1050C to 1100C and then cool the
sample.
3. Fill this aggregate in the cylindrical measure in 3 layers, tapping each layers 25 times with
the tamping rod. Level the surface tamping road as a using the straight edge.
4. Weight the aggregate in the measure. This weight of the aggregate is used for the duplicate
test on the same material.
5. Transfer the aggregate from the cylindrical measure to the cup in 3 layers and compact each
layer by tamping in 25 strokes with the tamping rod.
6. Release the hammer for fall freely on the aggregate. The test sample is subjected to a total
of 15 blows.
7. Remove the aggregate sample from the cup and sieve through 2.36 mm sieve .
8. Weight the fraction passing the sieve.
