27. If aggregate size of 50-40 mm is to be tested for finding out the portion of elongated aggregates using length gauge, the slot length of the gauge should be ___ mm. |
A. 45 |
B. 54 |
C. 81 |
D. 90 |
Answer: C 81 |
Explanation: Slot length for elongated aggregate = 1.8 x mean dimension = 1.8((50 + 40)/2) = 81 For flakiness index, the slot size mm = 0.6((50 + 40)/2) = 27 mm |
