    The document reports on two aggregate testing experiments: 1. Particle density and water absorption of coarse aggregate was tested using the wire basket method. The particle density on an oven-dried basis was 2.86 Mg/m3 and water absorption was 0.4%. 2. Particle density and water absorption of fine aggregate was tested using the pyknometer method. The particle density on an oven-dried basis was 2.63 Mg/m3 and water absorption was 0.6%. Both experiments were conducted according to BS 812 testing standards to determine key properties of coarse and fine aggregates.
