Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

You are tasked with determining which aggregates to use for a highway project that expects heavy truck traffic. Explain how you would evaluate the aggregates using ACV, AIV, and LAAV, citing the ideal values for each.

💡 Hint: Consider the real-life applications of trucks and highways.

Question 2

Compare two aggregates: Aggregate A has an ACV of 25%, AIV of 15%, and LAAV of 28%. Aggregate B has an ACV of 32%, AIV of 18%, and LAAV of 25%. Which aggregate would you recommend and why?

💡 Hint: Think about which properties are more critical for structural longevity.
