    This document describes Test Method LS-603 for determining the resistance of coarse aggregate to degradation by abrasion and impact using a Los Angeles abrasion machine. It provides the scope, relevant standards, procedures to follow from ASTM C131 and C535 with some exceptions, requirements for abrasive charge and test sample gradations, use of a laboratory control aggregate for quality control, and reporting requirements including control chart data.

    METHOD OF TEST FOR


    RESISTANCE TO DEGRADATION OF COARSE AGGREGATE BY
    ABRASION AND IMPACT IN THE LOS ANGELES ABRASION MACHINE

    1. SCOPE
    This method covers the determination of resistance to degradation of coarse aggregate by abrasion
    and impact using the Los Angeles testing machine.

    2. RELEVANT DOCUMENTS
    2.1 AASHTO T 96 Standard Method of Test for Resistance to Degradation of Small-Size
    Coarse Aggregate by Abrasion and Impact in the Los Angeles Machine
    2.2 ASTM C131 Standard Test Method for Resistance to Degradation of Small-Size
    Coarse Aggregate by Abrasion and Impact in the Los Angeles Machine
    2.3 ASTM C535 Standard Test Method for Resistance to Degradation of Large-Size
    Coarse Aggregate by Abrasion and Impact in the Los Angeles Machine
    2.4 CSA-A23.2-16A Resistance to Degradation of Small-Size Coarse Aggregate by Abrasion
    and Impact in the Los Angeles Machine
    2.5 CSA-A23.2-17A Resistance to Degradation of Large-Size Coarse Aggregate by Abrasion
    and Impact in the Los Angeles Machine

    3. PROCEDURE
    Procedures of ASTM C131 and C535 shall be followed, except as noted below, for the determination
    of degradation of coarse aggregate by abrasion and impact using the Los Angeles testing machine.

    4. EXCEPTIONS
    4.1 SIEVES: Conforming to ASTM E11, except use 13.2 mm sieve size instead of 12.5 mm.
    4.2 Replace ASTM Standard Clause 5.4.1, with Table 1 as follows:
    The abrasive charge, depending upon the grading of the test sample as described in Table 2, shall
    be as follows:

    * Material previously separated into individual sizes shall be recombined in proportion to the original or
    laboratory crushed gradation.

    5. USE OF LABORATORY CONTROL AGGREGATE


    5.1 Every ten samples, but at least every week in which a sample is tested, a sample of a
    reference aggregate shall also be tested. The material shall be taken from a stock supply maintained
    by the laboratory.
    Note: The material selected by the laboratory may be calibrated against a supply of Drain Brothers
    Stoney Lake Quarry stone. When prepared to an 11-B grading, the mean loss of the Stoney Lake
    Brothers Quarry standard reference aggregate is 26.0% (MERO-036, 2010). Individual test data
    should not normally be greater than 28.8%, or less than 23.2%.
    5.2 Control Chart Use: The percent loss of the last 20 samples of reference material shall be
    plotted on a control chart in order to monitor the performance of the laboratory.

    6. REPORT
    The report shall also include the following:
    6.1 The percent loss of the reference sample, tested closest to the time at which the aggregate
    sample was tested, to one decimal place.
    6.2 The percent loss of the last 2 samples of reference material on a control chart.
