Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
You have two aggregate samples: Sample A with an FI of 10% and EI of 12%, and Sample B with an FI of 20% and EI of 30%. Which sample would you recommend for high-load pavement, and why?
💡 Hint: Think about how shapes affect pavement stability.
Calculate the potential impact on pavement performance if the aggregate’s Flakiness and Elongation Index exceed recommended limits. Discuss possible long-term consequences.
💡 Hint: Reflect on the roles of shape in loading situations.
