Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

You have an aggregate sample with a Flakiness Index of 18% and an Elongation Index of 25%. Is the combined index acceptable for use in a pavement mix? Show calculations.

💡 Hint: Add both indices to check against the requirement.

Question 2

If a construction project requires aggregates with specific indices, how would you adjust a sample with 60% flaky particles to meet the 35% combined index requirement?

💡 Hint: Consider how you would compose a new mix.
