About this document
Specific Gravity & Absorption of Gravel by ScribdTranslations is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document describes the procedure for determining the specific gravity and absorption percentage of coarse aggregates (gravel) using the basket method. A sample of gravel is taken, saturated with water, and weighed to obtain the saturated weight with a dry surface. The sample is then dried and weighed to determine the absorption percentage. Finally, the volume of the sample is calculated to determine its specific gravity. The document concludes by reporting the results of the conducted test.
