This Standard sets out the method for determining the particle density, the apparent particle density and the water absorption of fine aggregates or the fine fraction of an aggregate. Difficulty may be experienced using this method when the test portion is substantially retained on the 1.18 mm sieve. Such a test portion is unlikely to retain its shape in the compaction cone making the determination of the saturated surface dry condition difficult to judge. Under these circumstances the saturated surface dry condition is determined visually as that point where the surface of the aggregate still appears damp but there are no visible films of moisture present. The fact that the SSD condition was determined visually is noted on the test report.
