Durability assessment of crush rock road base
Abstract Crushed rock road base derived from either volcanic breccia or dolerite is used extensively in the Syndey Metropolitan area. At present three methods of pretreatment of part of a sample are specified by the Department of Main Roads to predict material breakdown during construction. In addition the dry/wet strength variation is measured to determine material durability. This testing is based on the 10% Fines Test procedure. This paper describes an investigation carried out to ascertain whether the three methods of pretreatment are, indeed, necessary with volcanic breccia and to determine the relationship between the effects of various methods of pretreatment and the aggregate strength parameters.
