coatings. When tested in accordance with AASHTO T 96, the percentage of wear shall not exceed 50. The percentage of deleterious substances shall not exceed the following values, and the sum of percentages of all deleterious substances shall not exceed 8.0 percent. Deleterious Material Percent by Weight Deleterious Rock 8.0 Shale 1.0 Other Foreign Material 0.5

1002.2.1 1 The above requirements apply to combined aggregates during production when used in accordance

with Sec 403.

1002.2.1 2 Crushed stone shall be obtained from rock of uniform quality. Rock tested from any combination of

ledges for source approval, and trial mix samples, shall meet the following criteria. Property Value Los Angeles Abrasion, AASHTO T 96, percent loss, max 50 Absorption, AASHTO T 85, percent, max 4.0
