Theory :
Results :
Report the mean of three results as stripping value of the tested
aggregates to the nearest whole number =
%.
Inference :
As Per IS 6241-1971, has specified the maximum stripping value as
25 percent for aggregates to be used in bituminous construction like
surface dressing penetration macadam, bituminous macadam and
carpet.
uses :
Some types of aggregates have a lesser affinity with bitumen in
comparison with water and hence stripping value of the bituminous
binder is done when the mix is immersed in water. The problem of
stripping in coated aggregate is not so amenable to theoretical
treatment. Thus an adhesion test such as the simple stripping test would
be suitable to assess whether the binder would adhere to the aggregate
