Determine the value of the sample's air voids,...
A bituminous mixture contains 65% coarse aggregate, 35% fine aggregate (by weight of total aggregate) and 4.8% asphalt (by weight of the mixture). Determine the bulk specific gravity of the mixture if, after compaction, it contains 7.0% air voids. Assume that the aggregate absorbs 0.3% of the asphalt by weight of the aggregate. The specific gravities of the materials are: Coarse Aggregate 2.723 Fine Aggregate 2.664 - 1.05
