4127Aggregate for Flexible Paving Mixtures

IA · 2023 Standard SpecificationsBook pages 10921094View official source ↗

4127.01DESCRIPTION

Crushed stone, gravel, slag, sand, and filler from an approved source. Crushed gravel may be used to satisfy crushed particle and friction requirements for flexible paving mixtures. Produce crushed gravel as a separate operation by crushing the portion of a gravel aggregate retained on a screen at least 1/4 inch larger than the sieve size that 100% of the gravel will pass after crushing.

4127.02COARSE AGGREGATE

Meet the requirements of Table 4127.02-1:

Iowa DOT Materials Laboratory Test Method No. 215 When a coarse aggregate for use in asphalt fails absorption using Iowa DOT Materials Laboratory Test Method No. 201; absorption determined by Materials I.M. 380 (Vacuumsaturated specific gravity & absorption) will be used. The 6.0% maximum absorption applies. If the Alumina value passes, the A-Freeze is not needed for specification compliance. If the Alumina value fails, determine the A Freeze value for specification compliance. Alumina does not apply to gravel.

COMBINED AGGREGATES.

A.

Use aggregate, which does not contain adherent films of clay or other matter that will prevent coating of particles with asphalt binder. Meet gradations of Materials I.M. 510.

B.

Coarse and fine aggregate shall meet quality requirements of Articles

and 4127.03 before combining aggregates

4127.05MINERAL FILLER

For fine material added to the mixture, separate from cold feed, meet the requirements for mineral filler in AASHTO M 17, except determine the gradation according to AASHTO T 11.
