1.1 This test method covers the determination of the percentages of flat particles elongated particles or flat and elongated particles in coarse aggregates. Two procedures Method A and Method B are presented in this standard. Method A is a reflection of the original procedure as developed prior to Superpave and is intended for all non-Superpave applications.
3.2.3.6 Flat or Elongated Particles in Coarse Aggregate – ASTM D4791 3.2.4 Should the inspection at the plant indicate equipment is adequate and the results of the tests specified are satisfactory the source is considered approved and eligible for use on projects provided specification compliance is maintained.
41 Use coarse aggregate meeting Table 1012-1 for flat and elongated pieces when tested 42 in accordance with ASTM D4791 on the No.
Flat or Elongated Particles in Coarse Aggregate ASTM D4791 This method determines the percentages of flat or elongated particles in coarse aggregates which are defined as those particles of aggregate having a ratio of width to thickness or length to width greater than a specified value. A proportional caliper device is used to identify the.
Flat-and-elongated particles are considered to be undesirable in HMA because they have a tendency to break or degrade during the construction process and under applied traffic. Generally throughout the country very few coarse aggregates will fail the flat and elongated specification at a 51 ratio.
How cubical do the aggregate particles used in Stone Matrix Asphalt SMA need to be to achieve acceptable performance European specifications require SMA aggregates to have no more than 30 percent Los Angeles L.A.

coarse and fine aggregate angularity requirements and determine their relationship to performance for refinement of the specifications. Flat and elongated aggregate can also effect performance. This characteristic is the percentage by weight of coarse aggregates that have a specified maximum to minimum dimension ratio.
• ASTM 4791-10 Standard Test Method for Flat Particles Elongated Particles or Flat Elongated Particles in Coarse Aggregates American Society for Testing and Materials. TEST DESCRIPTION Flakiness Index of aggregate is the percentage by weight of aggregate particles whose least dimension is less than 0.6 of their mean dimensions.
Flat and Elongated Particles testing is procedurally identified in ASTMD 4791 titled Standard Test Method for Flat Particles Elongated Particles or Flat and Elongated Particles in Coarse Aggregate. This acts as a determinant of the shapes of the particles within proposed aggregates.
Coarse aggregate shape flat and elongated and angularity are important issues in the highway industry.
