Description
Objectives of the Study: 1) Establish the basis for Mn/DOT'S current quality specifications/tests for concrete aggregate. 2) Through a literature search and personal contacts, evaluate a wide variety of existing tests and report the author's opinion on the ability of each to predict aggregate freeze-thaw durability in PCC pavements. 3) State Author's opinions of best test(s) for the laboratory determination of aggregate freeze-thawdurability for use in Minnesota.
