What is the test of fine aggregate

Question

Accepted Answer

The test of fine aggregate is conducted to determine its quality and suitability for use in construction.

The test of fine aggregate includes tests for grading, particle shape, specific gravity, water absorption, and moisture content.
Grading test determines the particle size distribution of the aggregate.
Particle shape test assesses the shape and texture of the particles.
Specific gravity test measures the density of the aggregate compared to the density of water.
Water absorption test determines the amount of water absorbed by the aggregate.
Moisture content test measures the moisture present in the aggregate.
Examples of tests for fine aggregate include sieve analysis, flakiness index test, specific gravity test, and water absorption test.
